RNWY Complete Protein is a post-run recovery shake we genuinely stand behind. Here’s why: built on YESTEIN®, a fermented yeast protein that scores a PDCAAS of 1.0, which is the
highest possible protein quality rating. That puts it in the same category as whey but without any
of the dairy. Every serving gives you 25 grams of complete protein containing all nine essential amino acids plus 5 grams of creatine monohydrate and a five-enzyme digestive complex. Get yours at https://rnwy.life/ and use code FEATHERS15 for 15% off your purchase.
