Our Story
A journey to bring the world a better protein
A different kind of protein
Hi, I’m Kevin, the founder of ProteinRx.
ProteinRx began with a fairly ordinary frustration: finding a protein powder that was simple, versatile, and comfortable to use every day. My wife and I have both led active lives, but many of the products we tried were overly flavored, heavily formulated, or simply didn’t agree with us.
That search introduced me to yeast protein, an emerging source of complete protein that comes from neither plants nor animals. I was surprised that something so promising was almost absent from the protein aisle.
Why yeast?
As a fitness enthusiast, it blew my mind. It’s not your standard protein ingredient, and the more I dove in, the better it got.
-
Easy on the stomach
The first protein I found that doesn’t upset my stomach.
-
A complete protein
Provides all nine essential amino acids, so it’s a genuinely high-quality protein.
-
No plant-protein baggage
Skips the herbicides, fertilizers and high lead concentrations that can come with plant proteins.
-
No animal-protein issues
No lactose intolerance, antibiotics or ethical concerns.
-
Lighter on the planet
Uses less water, land and resources than plant and animal proteins in general.
-
Made for everyday food
Blend it into a banana-cinnamon smoothie, cook and bake with it, or add it to savory meals.
Why ProteinRx exists
I believe protein can be simpler, more sustainable, more versatile, and easier to fit into daily life. I also strongly believe in yeast protein’s potential to get more protein into the average American diet without the typical issues of mainstream protein.
Our product is intentionally focused: one high-quality protein ingredient, designed to skip the junk and give people a versatile product. It’s packaged in Utah and independently tested for protein content, microbiological quality, and heavy metals. Each serving delivers 30 grams of complete protein.
ProteinRx is proudly based in Salt Lake City. I’m building it carefully, beginning with direct customer relationships, local partnerships, and honest feedback from the people who use it.
Thank you for being here at the beginning.
This is still a young company. That means you’re not buying from a giant supplement conglomerate. You’re supporting an independent founder working to establish an entirely new option in the protein category.
