I first came across Hench Nutrition on Amazon, whilst browsing for products. I had a query so I emailed them, and that turned out to become a friendship with the founder of the company.I was sent some products to try, one of them being 'protein pancakes', the rest will have to wait until I have recovered from my injury. I have never been someone to regularly have pancakes, I haven't had them in a while, and I have never had protein pancakes, so I didn't know what to expect. The protein pancakes are unflavoured, so I decided to try one with coco (low fat, low sugar) and one with fruit. Obviously, adding coco will add a little bit of fat and sugar, but I'm sure it would be a popular flavor to have. The nutrition content of the pancakes are actually really good, so adding a bit of chocolate 'won't' harm them too much. The nutrition content is as follows:
Per 40g (1-2 pancakes)
Energy: 147 calories
Protein: 24.9g
Fat: 1.7g
Carbohydrates: 8.3
of which sugars: 0.2
Both the chocolate flavoured and fruit topped pancakes tasted nice, and its great knowing your eating pancakes, but they are actually healthy! Pancakes are a very common and much loved dish, and the fact that you can purchase protein pancakes that are quick and easy to make, I think, is great. I would definitely recommend these - they are great for breakfast but also for a snack if you are short for time.
'Hench Nutrition' provide great products at very competitive prices, but also, they provide some of the best customer service I have ever had. It has been a pleasure to speak to Hench over the last 6 months or so, and I've not had one complaint.
I think it is very hard to come into the supplement industry when there are already a number of well established brands that people are likely to go to first. It is similar to the technology industry - Apple are still 'the best', and if a new company brought out a tablet and charged the same price as the Apple ipad, people are most likely going to purchase the ipad. I take my hat off to Hench, I think they have brought out some great products that work, and there brand image is very strong. Its a pleasure to now be a Hench Nutrition athlete, and I hope many more people try their products and stick with them! Hench Nutrition is only going to get better!
