In 2018 The Clean Label Project conducted a study testing various types of protein power. The below infographic shows the results. Egg-based protein powders which are far less processed contained less harmful contaminants than other more highly processed powders. Plant based powders, which require a lot of processing to extract protein, were found to contain the most chemicals.

Rowan is a scientist/athlete turned entrepreneur. After playing soccer at universities in the UK and the US for far too long, he was given a masters degree in exercise physiology. He then worked as a research scientist, having some of his work on sports supplements and sleep medicine published as a result.

Rowan, having far too short an attention span to remain a scientist, founded Blonyx Biosciences in 2011 to make good use of his understanding of the science behind supplements. Outside work, Rowan spends most of his time training at CrossFit 604 in Vancouver, BC, on his mountain bike or snowboard.
