How Does Our Superfood Plant Protein Compare to Others?
We wondered the same. So, we put together this chart. And, we didn’t cheat — we know we are superior to many brands on the market but we wanted to compare to the “better for you” brands. How do we measure up? Pretty darn well. You may already know that no one compares to ZEGO when it comes to purity and transparency. But what you may learn is that our products–including our sacha inchi seed protein–are nutritionally superior to most others on the market. Just check this chart below to see a few of the differences that set us apart.

Here’s All the Deets on our Amazing Organic Plant-Based Protein
- SUPERIOR PLANT-BASED NUTRITION
- Sacha inchi protein is a “whole food” product that is simply cold pressed, roasted, and ground seeds, which makes an ideal powder of about 65% protein by weight.
- Most rice, soy, pea, whey and other protein powders are highly processed “isolates” made by using industrial enzymes or chemicals to strip the carbs from protein creating a powder with 90%+ protein.
- You absorb 20%-40% more of our protein because the isolate proteins pass through your system too quickly for you to digest them completely.
- Sacha inchi protein also has a superior, more balanced amino acid profile to other plant proteins like rice, soy, pea or hemp protein.
- Here is the amino acid profile in 1 gram of sacha inchi protein powder.
- PURITY VERIFIED FOR PESTICIDES & HEAVY METALS
- We purity verify our organic plant-based protein for heavy metals, glyphosate, aflatoxins, and 400+ other agricultural pesticides. Organic certification does not cover heavy metals.
- The Clean Label Project did a study showing that the majority of organic plant protein powders were contaminated with high heavy metal levels.
- We give you 100% transparency — our purity test results are linked to each bag through its QR code and are on our website.
- EASY TO DIGEST
- You’ll find our organic plant-based protein easy on your tummy because it digests more slowly and has more of its natural nutrients attached to it.
- We test and have found no detectable amount of aflatoxins, a common fungus in seeds that can cause severe tummy upset all the way to death (yikes).
- VERIFIED FREE OF TOP ALLERGEN AND GLUTEN
- We process our protein powder in a top 14 allergen-free facility.
- We test it for gluten (<5PPM) and allergens (<2.5PPM) to be sure there are signs of cross contact.
- No corn is in our facility.
- SUPPORTS SMALL U.S. FARMERS & OUR PLANET
- We buy from small family farms in the Amazon that are “beyond organic” in their farming practices.
- There is an income support program for the families in case of crop loss.
- Sacha inchi seeds are a valuable crop grown in the shade of the Amazon Rainforest, helping to maintain the health of this vital part of our planet.
- BETTER FLAVOR & TEXTURE
- Our protein has a roasted flavor, making it particularly good in baking.
- Our new protein (launched Sept 2021) is a finer grind than our previous version. It has a medium-light texture to it.
This is the amino acid profile of ONE GRAM of sacha inchi protein powder. A tablespoon of sacha inchi protein has about 6 grams in it. Three tablespoons is roughly a “scoop” measure used by other brands.

🌾 🍞🚫 After 9 years of symptoms — broken bones, bone pain, gut distress, weight loss, and brain fog that kept ZEGO founder Colleen Kavanagh from socializing and learning — doctors finally diagnosed her with Celiac Disease when she was 15. In the next 6 months, Colleen grew 6 inches and gained 40 pounds. Her pains and brain fog cleared.
This amazing experience made Colleen acutely aware that being malnourished, regardless of why you are, keeps you from being your authentic self and achieving your dreams. 🌱
It`s essential to remember that Celiac disease is not an allergy or an intolerance. Living gluten-free isn`t a choice or a trend. It`s a lifelong autoimmune condition, like MS or Lupus. Understanding this distinction is the first step toward creating a safer, more supportive, and inclusive world. 🌍

🚨 Beware of Cheap Gluten-Free Oats!
Hey there, fellow gluten-free warriors! 💪 I wanted to share a cautionary tale about the importance of staying vigilant when it comes to our dietary needs.
Around four years ago, a major company decided to join the gluten-free oat scene. They were promising prices that were almost too good to be true. Little did we know, they were playing a dangerous game. They undercut established brands, leaving them in a tough spot and making us question how they could offer oats at such jaw-dropping prices.
Fast forward a bit, and the truth came to light: it was discovered that the reason they were able to do such inexpensive gluten-free oats, was that the oats were not actually gluten-free. 🙅♂️ Yes, you read that right. They were selling oats that were labeled gluten-free that were not actually gluten-free! 😱
This is the kind of thing we would catch if we had a lot more transparency, and people were demanding and expecting it.
This story is a glaring reminder of why we need transparency and quality standards in the food industry. We, as consumers, deserve honesty about what we`re putting into our bodies. It`s unfortunate that there are those who try to take advantage of our dietary requirements for their gain. 😤
So, here`s the takeaway: when a new brand jumps into the market, especially if you rely on gluten-free or allergy-free foods, do your research! 🕵️♀️ don’t be afraid to ask for certifications and read up on reviews. Most newcomers are genuine and want to do right by us, but there will always be a few bad apples.

🚨 Beware of Cheap Gluten-Free Oats!
Hey there, fellow gluten-free warriors! 💪 I wanted to share a cautionary tale about the importance of staying vigilant when it comes to our dietary needs.
Around four years ago, a major company decided to join the gluten-free oat scene. They were promising prices that were almost too good to be true. Little did we know, they were playing a dangerous game. They undercut established brands, leaving them in a tough spot and making us question how they could offer oats at such jaw-dropping prices.
Fast forward a bit, and the truth came to light: it was discovered that the reason they were able to do such inexpensive gluten-free oats, was that the oats were not actually gluten-free. 🙅♂️ Yes, you read that right. They were selling oats that were labeled gluten-free that were not actually gluten-free! 😱
This is the kind of thing we would catch if we had a lot more transparency, and people were demanding and expecting it.
This story is a glaring reminder of why we need transparency and quality standards in the food industry. We, as consumers, deserve honesty about what we`re putting into our bodies. It`s unfortunate that there are those who try to take advantage of our dietary requirements for their gain. 😤
So, here`s the takeaway: when a new brand jumps into the market, especially if you rely on gluten-free or allergy-free foods, do your research! 🕵️♀️ don’t be afraid to ask for certifications and read up on reviews. Most newcomers are genuine and want to do right by us, but there will always be a few bad apples.

🥦🍓 Even organic fruits and veggies can pick up dirt, chemicals, and wax in their journey from the farm to your kitchen.
🧼You don`t want to use soap to wash your fresh fruits & veg – soap residue can seep into your produce and cause an upset stomach. 🚫Bleach is a big no-no and should never be used on food or even on dishes that hold food. Hot water can wilt, bruise, or even begin to cook some veggies or fruits and that can provide a pathway for those sneaky microorganisms to get inside your produce! Even fruits and veg you peel should be washed before prep or eating to ensure that chemical residue and dirt are removed.
Try this super simple, effective solution for cleaner, Greener Eats! 🌱🥕
1️⃣ Mix a few teaspoons of baking soda with 4 cups of water in a bowl.
2️⃣ Gently add your fresh fruits and veggies to the solution.
3️⃣ Give them a gentle swish or push to make sure every side gets a nice, bubbly bath. 🛁✨
4️⃣ Set your timer for 12 minutes and let the magic happen!
5️⃣ Once done, simply rinse your produce under cool running water.
👉 Remember, timing is key! Only wash your produce right before you`re ready to enjoy it. Excess moisture can become a breeding ground for bacteria and lead to faster spoilage.
Give it a whirl and let us know how it transforms your produce game! Let`s take a step towards cleaner, greener eats together! 🌱✨

🌱 Happy World Plant Milk Day! 🥛🌍Let`s raise a glass to a healthier you and a happier planet with the power of plant-based milk!
Did you know that milk is one of the most common food allergens? Between 2% and 6% worldwide are estimated to be allergic to milk protein according to the UN`s Food and Agriculture Organisation FAO. Although a milk allergy is developed within the first year of a baby`s life, most will outgrow the milk allergy by the age of 5. Like other allergies, a milk protein allergy can have very serious health effects that require medical care.
🌿❤️ By opting for plant-based milk, you`re not only treating yourself to essential nutrients and minerals but also contributing to a more sustainable world. Each glass you enjoy is a step towards combating climate change and reducing your carbon footprint. 🌍✨
Speaking of plant milk heroes, let`s give a shout-out to oats! 🌾 Oat milk is a remarkable example of a sustainable and allergy-friendly alternative. Not only does it require less water and land usage compared to other milk sources, but it also has a lower greenhouse gas production. Plus, making your own oat milk using ZEGO`s Organic Double Protein Oats ensures creamier milk with better nutrition, all while being gluten-free and allergy-safe. 🌱🥛🌿
Ready to try making your own oat milk? Check out our recipe using ZEGO`s Organic Double Protein Oats for a creamy, allergy-friendly treat in the comments below. Your body and the planet will thank you! 🌾🥤👇

Have you discovered the magic of matcha yet? 🍵✨ The traditional tea beverage with roots in China and Japan has been cherished for thousands of years. Many people in the U.S. hadn`t even heard of it until a certain local Big Mermaid Coffee Chain and social media made the Matcha Latte so ubiquitous in cafes and airports stateside! 🌿🍵😄
So, why all the buzz? Well, let us spill the tea! 🍃 Matcha powder isn`t just a pretty shade of green – it`s a powerhouse of antioxidants that can give your immune system a boost and bring other health benefits to your life. 🌈🌿
🌙To make Blueberry Matcha Overnight Oats 🫐
Ingredients:
🔹1 cup ZEGO Double Protein Oats
🔹1 tbsp chia seeds
🔹1 tsp matcha powder (use a high grade ceremonial matcha powder if you can, it will have a better flavor)
🔹Pinch of salt
🔹Light coconut milk (We like to use light coconut milk, because it makes the overnight oats extra creamy and filling)
🔹1 tsp vanilla extract
🔹1 tbsp maple syrup (or your sweetener of choice)
🔹 1 tbsp of hemp seeds
🔹 1 scoop of ZEGO Pure Plant Protein
🔹 Milk of choice as needed (if your oats are too thick for your liking)
Method:
🔹Prepare the raw oats by pouring boiling water over them first. Let sit for 15 minutes before the next steps and refrigeration.
🔹Mix all ingredients in a bowl or large jar & stir everything together
🔹Cover your bowl or jar and leave it in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
🌄 And voilà! Top it all off with your favorite toppings – fresh blueberries, chunks of fresh coconut, a sprinkle of seeds, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup. Then dig in and enjoy this energizing blend of overnight oats.
🍃 FYI -1 teaspoon of matcha powder has roughly 70 milligrams of caffeine. So, each serving of these oats would have 35 milligrams of caffeine.
🌱Are you feeling the matcha bliss or will you skip this one? Let us know in the comments if you tried matcha overnight oats before! 😄🥣🫐🍃
