First and foremost because they are absolutely delicious. But no worries, there are more benefits: The convenient pancake mix contains an incredible 50% protein. When prepared with water, one portion (100 g powder with 200 ml water) contains just 2.9 g sugar. What more can you ask for?
Athletes and physically active people have an increased need for protein. Protein intake contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass. The quality of the protein plays an important role too: The high-quality protein components in our pancake mix have a very high content of essential (EAA) and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Since the body cannot produce the essential amino acids itself, they must sufficient amounts need to be consumed through food.

Proteins are a so-called macronutrient, which means that we need to consume them in large amounts to cover our needs. Proteins, which are made up of individual amino acids, have a variety of different functions in our body. For example, they are the main component of muscle tissue. The two muscle proteins actin and myosin are responsible for muscle contraction, which initiates movement. Proteins are essential nutrients, which means that they must be consumed regularly and in sufficient quantities through food. Due to their function as building blocks of our muscles, dietary proteins contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.
