Alani Nu Plant Protein Chocolate is a protein supplement providing 21 grams of protein per serving, along with various vitamins and minerals. While it offers a protein source, several listed micronutrients, including Calcium (16mg), Iron (3mg), and Potassium (430mg), are underdosed relative to established daily values or clinical research for specific benefits. The product holds an N+ Score of 48, receiving an 'F' grade, placing it in the below-average tier due to low ingredient adequacy and formula completeness. With 9 total ingredients and 100% label transparency, it clearly lists its components. This product may suit individuals looking for a plant-based protein source, but may not adequately contribute to daily micronutrient needs.
