About
Who they are.
PEScience formulates sports nutrition and daily wellness products, including protein powders, greens blends, and functional bars. Its catalog spans performance-oriented supplements aimed at endurance and pumps alongside everyday wellness lines like TruServ Greens, with Select Vegan Protein extending its protein range to dairy-free and dietary-restricted eaters.
The company's formulations are built around flavor and texture, with attention to how products perform in baking and mixing applications as well as in shakes. That focus on taste and blend consistency, paired with attention to macro composition, shapes its identity among people seeking protein options that fit restrictive diets without sacrificing palatability.
The verdict
PEScience draws positive reviews for product quality and retail growth, but faces compliance scrutiny over protein labeling in its vegan line that undermines claims of honest marketing. The brand's strength in product development is offset by legal challenges that call its transparency into question.
