If you don’t like something of ours, guess what happens next?

No, we don’t request you deliver it to a PO box in the Gobi Desert by carrier pigeon. Nor do we ask you to fill a cursed inkwell with orc’s blood and demon saliva and then use it to complete reams of return forms written in ancient Cyrillic script.

We just . . . wait for it . . . give you every penny of your money back. Holy moo cows. And that means you can say "yes" now and decide later.

Legion Protein Cereal Ingredients (40 grams per serving)

Milk Protein Concentrate (17 grams per serving)

Milk protein concentrate is a protein powder made by filtering milk to significantly increase the protein content while reducing the amount of lactose and water. It typically comprises around 80% casein and 20% whey.

This is why research has shown that milk protein concentrate can be equally effective as whey protein for stimulating muscle protein synthesis.[1]

Milk protein concentrate is also perfect for making protein cereal because it provides a satisfying crunch, clean flavor, and long shelf life—without the sogginess, grittiness, or earthy aftertaste typical of grain-based protein cereals.

Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate (22 grams per serving)

Prebiotic Fiber (7 grams per serving)

Prebiotic fiber is a partially indigestible carbohydrate found in foods like asparagus, onions, and garlic that promotes the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.[2]

Our protein cereal contains two kinds: chicory root fiber and soluble tapioca fiber.

Chicory root fiber comes from chicory, a plant related to dandelions. It’s a rich natural source of inulin—a prebiotic fiber with antioxidant properties that supports gut health.[3][4][5]

Soluble tapioca fiber is extracted from the roots of the cassava plant and helps give our cereal a light, crunchy texture.

Research shows that consuming 5-to-8 grams of prebiotic fiber per day . . .

  • Reduces the growth of harmful gut bacteria[6]
  • May support healthy cholesterol levels[7]
  • Supports digestive health and regularity[8]
  • Reduces appetite and supports weight management[9]
  • Supports bone health[10]

Each serving of our protein cereal contains 7 grams of prebiotic fiber—enough to deliver meaningful health benefits without disrupting digestion.

Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate (22 grams per serving)

Nutritious Plant-Based Carbs & Fat (21 grams per serving)

Our protein cereal contains 15 grams of carbs and 6-to-7 grams of fat from healthy plant foods including tapioca, chicory root, coconut oil, and stevia, and it’s sweetened with just 4 grams (one teaspoon) of added sugar.

Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate (22 grams per serving)

Naturally Sweetened & Flavored

While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health.[11][12][13][14][15][16]

That’s why we use the natural sweetener stevia instead. Research shows that this ingredient is not only safe but can also confer several health benefits, including better nutrient absorption, healthy cholesterol levels, and more.[17][18][19][20][21][22]

No Artificial Food Dyes or Other Chemical Junk

No Artificial Food Dyes, Fillers, or Other Unnecessary Junk

As with artificial sweeteners, studies show that artificial food dyes and fillers can cause negative effects in some people, including gastrointestinal toxicity and behavioral disorders.[23][24][25][26][27]

That’s why we use natural coloring and flavoring derived from fruits and other foods as well as naturally derived ingredients for improving texture, enhancing shelf life, and facilitating the manufacturing process.

No Artificial Food Dyes or Other Chemical Junk
