A survey conducted in 2017 reports that 73% of Indians are deficient in protein. Above 90% are unaware of protein's daily requirement considered the building blocks of our body, protein is key to a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, if you are looking for a convenient way to consume protein, Mumbai-based company Aquatein claims to offer India's first protein water. In the search for a protein-rich product that was neither a powder nor a milk-based beverage, Aquatein was born. Founder and fitness enthusiast, Ananth Prabhala, wants to revolutionize the way modern Indians consume protein, making it simpler, accessible, and tasty.
Team Aquatein had a fundamental goal: creating a beverage that has no fillers, no sugar, no hormones, and claims to offer you the macronutrients your body needs. The pursuit of producing a product that pushed the boundary of innovation led to years of ideation, trials, research, and development. Aquatein was carefully formulated and tested in a European lab led by a team of food technologists. Flavor being a crucial factor for the brand, six to eight months were spent doing taste trials that have yielded a product that is good for you and tastes good.
Advocating adequate protein consumption, Aquatein has developed a unique calculator available on its website, taking multiple factors into account and providing you with your body's protein requirement. Ananth believes that Aquatein isn't just for those who work out, "Protein is for everyone," he adds. That's why Aquatein is Keto-friendly, lactose-free, and 100% vegetarian. Most ready-to-eat protein products suggest loads of water consumption, but Aquatein's water-base means you don't have to!
It is available in two categories, one with 10g of protein and Aquatein Pro with 21g of power-packed protein for your body's essential intake. Each variety is prepared in four flavors, strawberry, green apple, orange, and mixed berry.
Prabhala said, "Innovation is the key to success, and we at Aquatein want to keep innovating and give the consumer a hassle-free and convenient protein experience. We plan to be a household name for 'anything and everything protein' across the country."
Aquatein is available online on www.aquatein.com, as well as on Amazon, Activ8me.in, HealthXP, Netmeds, Get Vital Marketplace. According to the press statement, soon, you can get your daily fix of protein at select stores across Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi, and Bengaluru.
