What is Vegan Protein 360?
Vegan Protein 360 is Protein Works’s plant-based protein shake. The ‘360’ in the name stands for a holistic approach to nutrition: not just as much protein as possible per scoop, but a formula that also includes vitamins, minerals and active ingredients. The result is a shake you can enjoy at any time of day — after a workout, as a snack or mixed into your porridge.
What sets Vegan Protein 360 apart from most vegan protein powders is that it comes in three versions. Protein Works refers to these as the Innovation Levels: BLACK, GOLD and PLATINUM. They share the same base, but each level adds something extra. More protein, more protein sources, more vitamins and more functional ingredients such as digestive enzymes, probiotics and omega-3.
The three Innovation Levels explained
All three are 100% plant-based and contain all nine essential amino acids. The difference lies in what else they contain apart from the protein.

- 5 flavours

GOLD Innovation
The bestseller and, for most people, the best balance. Three sources of protein for a more complete amino acid profile, 26 grams of protein, plus 12 vitamins and minerals and digestive enzymes that make the shake easier to digest.

Which Vegan Protein 360 is right for you?
You’re mainly looking for protein at a competitive price
Do you mainly drink a shake to maintain your protein intake and get your vitamins from your diet? If so, then BLACK That makes sense. You pay the lowest price per serving and still get 22 grams of plant-based protein per shake.
You want the best balance
GOLD is the best choice for most people. You get 26 grams of protein from three sources, along with 12 vitamins and minerals, and the digestive enzymes help if you’re sensitive to plant-based proteins.
You want to make the most of it
Do you also use your shake as a complete dietary supplement, for example when you have a busy schedule or are following a GLP-1 programme? If so, then PLATINUM What you get most of: 29 grams of protein, 26 vitamins and minerals, probiotics, omega-3 and electrolytes.
The protein sources in Vegan Protein 360
Plant-based proteins are combined because each source has its own amino acid profile. Mixing them creates a complete profile containing all nine essential amino acids. The higher the Innovation Level, the more sources are included in the blend.
Pea protein
The most easily soluble plant-based protein source, rich in the amino acids arginine and lysine. Pea protein forms the backbone of virtually every good vegan blend.
Brown rice protein
It perfectly complements pea protein, as it is rich in the sulphur-containing amino acids that pea protein is somewhat lacking in. It also naturally contains vitamin B6.
Soya protein isolate
One of the few plant-based proteins that contains all nine essential amino acids on its own. It is included in the GOLD and PLATINUM formulas.
Pumpkin seed protein
The additional ingredient that sets PLATINUM apart. As well as protein, it also provides magnesium, zinc and iron, and ensures a phased release of nutrients.
How to make the perfect shake
1
Fill
Pour 300 ml of cold water or plant-based milk into your shaker. Using water will give you the lightest shake, whilst oat milk will give you a richer flavour.
2
Shovelling
Add one scoop: 30 grams for BLACK and GOLD, 35 grams for PLATINUM. Add the powder after the liquid to prevent clumping.
3
Shaking
Give it a good shake for ten seconds and you’re done. Do you think it’s too thick? Just add a bit more water or milk.
You can also stir the powder into porridge, yoghurt, pancake batter or a smoothie. One serving provides 22 to 29 grams of protein, so two shakes a day fit perfectly into a normal diet.
Frequently Asked Questions about Vegan Protein 360
What is the difference between BLACK, GOLD and PLATINUM?
The difference lies in the protein content, the number of protein sources and the added ingredients. BLACK provides 22 grams of protein from two sources. GOLD provides 26 grams from three sources and adds 12 vitamins and minerals, plus digestive enzymes. PLATINUM provides 29 grams from four sources, with 26 vitamins and minerals, probiotics, omega-3 and electrolytes.
Which Vegan Protein 360 should I choose?
For most people, GOLD offers the best balance between price and formula. Choose BLACK if you’re primarily looking for value for money per serving, and PLATINUM if you also use your shake as a complete nutritional supplement.
Is Vegan Protein 360 really 100% plant-based?
Yes. All three varieties are entirely plant-based and dairy-free, and are therefore suitable for vegans, vegetarians and people with a lactose intolerance.
Does it contain all the essential amino acids?
Yes. Combining plant-based protein sources creates a complete amino acid profile containing all nine essential amino acids that your body cannot produce itself.
Do plant-based proteins make me feel bloated?
Some people experience mild flatulence when first consuming pea or soya protein. This is usually temporary whilst your digestive system adjusts. GOLD and PLATINUM contain digestive enzymes, which can help to reduce this discomfort.
How many shakes can I have a day?
One to two portions a day fit perfectly into a normal diet for most people. Think of it as a supplement to your diet, not a replacement for it.
Is Vegan Protein 360 suitable for use alongside a GLP-1 treatment programme?
GOLD and PLATINUM are classified as GLP-1 friendly by Protein Works, as they provide plenty of protein and micronutrients whilst being low in calories. If in doubt, always consult your doctor or dietitian.
What is the difference between this and whey protein?
Whey comes from milk, whilst Vegan Protein 360 comes from plants. In terms of protein per serving, there is hardly any difference between them. Plant-based proteins are often better tolerated by people with a sensitivity to dairy, and naturally contain more fibre and micronutrients.
