Shop Vegetarian Supplements at Myprotein
Vegetarian supplements cover everything from everyday protein to performance-focused formulas — all free from meat, poultry, and fish derivatives. Whether you're fully vegetarian or simply cutting back on animal products, getting the right nutrients from your diet and supplement stack doesn't have to be complicated. Myprotein's vegetarian range spans protein powders, snacks, creatine, amino acids, vitamins, and more, so whatever your goal, there's something here that fits.
Every product in this range is clearly labelled and formulated without meat-derived ingredients. That means you can shop with confidence, knowing exactly what's in what you're taking. From high-protein snacks to training-specific supplements, the range is built to work as hard as you do — no compromises on quality or taste.
Who Vegetarian Supplements Are For
These products are built for anyone following a vegetarian lifestyle who wants to stay on top of their nutrition — whether you're a competitive athlete, a regular gym-goer, or just someone who takes their health seriously. Hitting protein targets, getting enough key micronutrients, and fuelling training sessions are all just as achievable on a vegetarian diet when you've got the right products backing you up.
It's not just for lifelong vegetarians either. If you're reducing your meat intake, experimenting with a more plant-forward diet, or simply looking for cleaner label options, this range gives you the flexibility to do that without sacrificing performance or convenience. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1 — and that doesn't change based on whether your source is whey or entirely plant-based.
When to Use Vegetarian Supplements
Timing depends entirely on the product. Protein powders work well post-training or as a convenient top-up when whole food sources aren't practical. Creatine is best taken consistently each day — the timing matters less than maintaining a daily intake of at least 3g, which is the amount shown to increase physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise2. Snack products like protein wafers and cookies fit naturally around meals or as on-the-go options when you need something quick.
For micronutrients like zinc, consistency is key. These are best taken with food as part of your regular daily routine rather than timed around workouts. With oats, granola, and mass gainers, morning or pre-training is a natural fit — they're carbohydrate-rich and designed to fuel rather than recover. Read the label on each product for specific guidance, but broadly speaking, vegetarian supplements slot into your existing routine in exactly the same way as any other sports nutrition product.
Vegetarian Supplements Benefits
Real Protein, No Meat Required
Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass1 — and you don't need meat on your plate to hit your daily targets. Products like Impact Whey Protein and the Breakfast Smoothie deliver meaningful protein per serving, making it easy to reach your goals whether you're training five days a week or just staying active.
Performance Ingredients, Clearly Labelled
From creatine monohydrate to beta alanine and citrulline malate, the range includes training-focused ingredients that are commonly used by athletes across all levels. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise2 — and both tablet and powder formats are available, so you can choose what fits your routine.
Convenient Formats for Every Occasion
Not every meal needs to be prepared from scratch. Protein cookies, wafers, granola, and peanut butter make hitting your nutritional targets straightforward — at home, at work, or on the move. The range covers everything from whole food-style snacks to targeted supplements, giving you options at every point of the day.
Micronutrient Coverage Without the Guesswork
Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system3, and it's one of the micronutrients worth keeping an eye on if you're eating less meat. Zinc Tablets provide a straightforward, no-fuss way to fill that gap. The vegetarian range isn't just about protein and performance — it covers the everyday nutritional basics too.

Do vegetarian supplements work as well as non-vegetarian ones?
The key actives in most supplements — creatine, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and protein — work the same way regardless of whether the overall formula is vegetarian. What matters is the quality and quantity of those ingredients. Myprotein's vegetarian products are formulated to the same standards as the rest of the range, so you're not trading efficacy for dietary preference.
Who developed the vegetarian supplements at Myprotein?
Myprotein's vegetarian supplements are developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists. Every product is formulated with both dietary requirements and performance goals in mind, ensuring that vegetarians can access the same quality of sports nutrition as anyone else — without needing to check every label for hidden animal derivatives.
Is creatine suitable for vegetarians?
Creatine monohydrate is synthesised and contains no animal-derived ingredients, making it suitable for vegetarians. Both Impact Creatine and THE Creatine (Creapure®) are available in this range. A daily intake of at least 3g is the amount shown to increase physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise2. Tablets are also available via Creatine Monohydrate Tablets if powder isn't your preference.
What formats do vegetarian supplements come in?
The range covers a wide variety of formats. Powders include protein, creatine, oats, maltodextrin, EAAs, beta alanine, citrulline malate, and glutamine. Tablets are available for creatine and zinc. There are also ready-to-eat snack formats — protein cookies, wafers, granola, and crisps — alongside whole food-style products like peanut butter and powdered peanut butter. Whatever your preference, there's a format that fits.
How do I know if a Myprotein product is vegetarian?
Products in the vegetarian category are clearly identified as suitable for vegetarians. Each product page includes full ingredient and allergen information so you can check exactly what's inside. If you're ever unsure, the ingredient list is always the most reliable source — and Myprotein's vegetarian range is specifically curated to take the guesswork out of it.
Can I get enough zinc from a vegetarian diet?
Zinc is found in foods like legumes, nuts, seeds, and wholegrains, but absorption from plant sources can be lower than from meat. Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system3, and Zinc Tablets offer a straightforward way to top up your intake as part of a vegetarian lifestyle. As with any supplement, it's best used alongside a varied diet rather than as a replacement for whole foods.
