About SYNTYZE – what drove me
When I first started looking seriously into plant-based protein powders, I was searching for a product that met three simple criteria:
- A complete, published amino acid profile
- At least 2.5 g of leucine per serving
- No artificial sweeteners
My love of strength training led me into the world of training and nutrition coaching. As a personal trainer and vegan nutritionist, I’ve been on this quest for years, yet I couldn’t find a single product that met all three criteria. So I founded SYNTYZE and developed it myself.
What began with three criteria turned into 12 months of development. Dozens of iterations of the formula until the taste, consistency and nutritional profile were all just right. 30 attempts until the packaging design was spot on, down to the last pixel. No investors, no team, no shortcuts.
The result is a protein powder with a standard of quality that was previously unheard of on the DACH market. One that needn’t hide behind its animal-based equivalent.
The name SYNTYZE stands for the synthesis of nature and science, inspired by protein synthesis – one of the principles that started it all. Our guiding principle: Nature’s Performance Fuel. A dietary supplement that prioritises transparency, quality and science, rather than empty promises.
