Paleo Protein

It’s protein powder made from animal sources that fit a paleo diet — such as grass-fed beef, egg white and bone broth — without the dairy, grains, soy or legumes found in many standard protein powders.

Generally no. Whey and casein come from dairy, which paleo avoids, and most plant proteins are made from legumes or grains (pea, rice, soy) that paleo also excludes. Beef, egg white and bone broth proteins are the usual paleo-friendly choices.

Yes — bone broth protein is made by simmering animal bones, making it a naturally paleo, collagen-rich protein that many people use to support gut, joint and skin health alongside their daily protein.

Grass-fed beef protein is a complete protein with the full range of amino acids for muscle support, while collagen is focused on connective tissue (skin, joints) and isn’t a complete protein on its own. Many people use beef or egg protein for muscle and add collagen as a complement.

If your version of paleo includes eggs, then yes — egg white protein is a lean, complete, dairy-free protein that fits well. If you avoid eggs, beef or bone broth protein are good alternatives.

It depends on your weight, goals and activity level, but many active people aim for roughly 1.2 to 2.0 grams per kilogram of body weight daily. A powder simply helps you reach that target when whole foods fall short.
