supporting the community Kaizen 20+ Years strong In Protein and Clean Nutrition For over 20 years Kaizen has been producing top-quality natural products for health-minded Canadians from coast to coast. From humble beginnings with a single protein product, Kaizen has grown into one of Canada’s largest suppliers of whey protein, alternative source proteins, and performance supplements. In the early days, Kaizen was known for producing the highest-quality supplements coveted by bodybuilders and elite athletes. Today it is quickly becoming the protein of choice for all levels of athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Purity Perfect for CrossFit Since Kaizen’s inception, the focus has always been on purity and simplicity. While many nutrition products add countless ingredients in miniscule and ineffective amounts, Kaizen focuses on fewer ingredients in larger, more efficacious amounts with an emphasis on superior raw material quality. Kaizen protein in particular is one of the purest proteins available today. Kaizen’s whey protein comes from New Zealand, home to some of the healthiest environments for pasture-raised cattle. Unlike cattle raised elsewhere, New Zealand cattle are not pumped full of growth hormone or antibiotics. As well, the pastures they graze on are free of herbicides and pesticides. Put this all together and you get some of the purest hormonefree and antibiotic-free whey protein available. If whey protein is not for you, Kaizen also makes an industry leading plant-based protein from a blend of yellow pea protein isolate, organic sprouted whole grain brown rice protein, organic hemp protein, potato protein isolate, and chia protein. Kaizen also produces tried-and-true supplements like Japanese l-glutamine from fermented beets, creatine monohydrate from SKW in Germany, and 95 percent Clarinol® CLA, to name a few. The icing on the cake is that all Kaizen products are made in their very own state-of-the-art facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba, which adheres to Health Canada’s Good Manufacturing Practices and regulatory requirements, which are some of the most stringent requirements in the world. Whether you’re a professional athlete who makes a living from your performance, or you’re someone who constantly strives to test your personal limits, Kaizen gives you the tools to train hard and recover quickly. At Kaizen, a c lean diet and healthy lifestyle always include supplements of the most pure and natural formulas possible. Kaizen products are available across Canada at most food retailers.
