A minor note about protein powders: Whey protein is VERY quickly absorbed, it's almost a sugar, as I understand it. (It's obviously NOT a carb, being protein, but it's on similar digestion lines WRT time.)
Pea protein, I don't know about.
But a brand I've liked here in the US is "Muscle Pharm Combat Powder Advanced Time Release Protein" because it's supposedly a blend of proteins, and lasts "throughout the day" (My words - meaning, you take it as breakfast, you'll not feel hungry all day, and then eat less, or not feel the need for carbs or snacking later in the day.)
Available on Amazon. Two scoops is 260 calories or so, IIRC.
Can't talk about alkalinizing, though. It does list the components on the back, and others here are better than I at tying the details together.
Annoys me that I used to think Whey Protein could be used in place of a meal... Oddly enough, THIS stuff could. Add in coconut oil tablets, might be useful to a lot of us. And better tasting than most of the scheisse I've used (E.G., Muscle Milk, MetRX, even IsoPure).
Probably strong enough to hide flavor of liquid herbs, but I've never had reason to try... ;-)
