a note from our founders

as women in our thirties, we were shocked to learn that we should be getting a minimum of 100g of protein a day โ€” something thatโ€™s often emphasized for men, but not as widely discussed for women, particularly outside of the gym. After diving deeper into proteinโ€™s benefits, we found that getting enough high-quality protein was challenging with our busy, on-the-go routines. Meal planning felt like a chore, and blending up shakes or buying sugary alternatives to hit a 20g serving of protein seemed like a frustrating compromise

thatโ€™s when we discovered clear whey โ€” and it clicked. We were excited about the idea of a formulation that was not only clean and free of artificial ingredients but also tasted so good that we actually craved it. Whether it was post-workout or just a mid-day pick-me-up at our desks, it became something we looked forward to. By the time we launched gramms, it had become a daily habit โ€” we could feel a noticeable difference on days we drank it vs. days we didnโ€™t. It helped stabilize our energy and control that โ€œglucose rollercoasterโ€ feeling, making us crave healthier foods throughout the day.

weโ€™re not obsessed with counting calories, but after diving into our protein education, we also started to track protein:calorie ratios in popular foods, or โ€˜protein-calorie efficiencyโ€™ to avoid filling up on unnecessary calories while trying to hit a higher protein quota. Weโ€™ve learned that gramms clear protein really is as good as it gets โ€“ a lean, refreshing formulation that derives 100% of its calories from protein. No unnecessary add-ons, fillers or chalky texture. We canโ€™t wait for you to try it, and see if it becomes your daily staple too!
