Form Nutrition Pureblend Protein Review 2026: An Unflavoured Vegan Protein for Race-Week Stomachs
Form Nutrition has added Pureblend to its protein range — a stripped-back, unflavoured version of its pea and brown rice vegan protein blend, sitting alongside the already-reviewed Performance Protein and Superblend Protein. The pitch is simple: no added flavouring, sweeteners or greens blend, just the base protein for anyone who wants full control over what goes into their shake.
Key Specs (Verified)
- UK price: £26 per 520g tub (13 servings)
- Protein source: pea and brown rice vegan protein blend, unflavoured
- Format: no added sweeteners, flavouring or greens/superfood blend — just the base protein
Why Unflavoured Matters for Race Week
Flavoured proteins are usually the better everyday choice, but in race week — or any time your gut is already sensitive from taper anxiety, travel or heat — added sweeteners and flavour compounds are exactly the kind of variable you don’t want to introduce for the first time. An unflavoured option lets you blend it into porridge, a smoothie with fruit you already tolerate well, or plain milk, without adding anything new to test.
Who Should Buy It
- Triathletes who already have a stomach-safe smoothie or porridge recipe and want to add protein without changing the flavour.
- Anyone sensitive to artificial sweeteners in flavoured protein powders.
- Less ideal if you want a grab-and-go shake with water alone — unflavoured with just water is genuinely bland, and you’ll want to mix it into something else.
