HIGH PROTEIN FOOD
High protein food used by Vegans in cooking in place of flour or suet in bread, pizzas, pancakes or dumplings. Its advantages over wheat flour are that it is gluten-free and much higher in protein, as well as being free from animal products.
Being over 90% protein, it is also used to fortify the nutrition of other vegetable ingredients. The product is used to increase the protein content of vegetable ghee in curries and other ethnic cooking, gravies and sauces. It is also used in fasting diets which would otherwise have limited and nutritionally limiting protein contents.
GRAMS OF AMINO ACIDS PER 100 g OF PROTEIN
A BLEND OF HIGH QUALITY VEGETABLE PROTEIN
Getting enough varied proteins can sometimes be a challenge in a vegan or vegetarian diet. Some single source plant proteins have a low biological value. 90+ Vegan combines high levels of complementary vegetable proteins which give a higher biological value than their individual components without the need for animal products and their associated high levels of saturated fat.
CONTAINS ALL OF THE ESSENTIAL, NON-ESSENTIAL AND BRANCHED CHAIN AMINO ACIDS (SEE PROFILE)
NUTRIVEGAN 90+ VEGAN is a low fat, low sugar protein isolated from peas, rice and soya in a 1:1:1 ratio. CONTAINS NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS. Contains all the essential, non-essential and branched chain amino acids. Vegetables can be very high in protein but tend be limited in certain amino acids. 90+ Vegan synergistically blends different vegetable sources to ensure that you get all the essential amino acids. Grains are low in sulphur containing amino acids whilst pulses tend to be low in lysine.
Mixing grains and pulses produces high quality proteins comparable to animal protein without the associated fat and cholesterol.
Rice protein compared favourably with whey protein in the Nutritional Journal trials shown below.
Pea protein is not associated with fat or cholesterol, as is the case with many animal based proteins.
Pea protein has one of the highest Lysine contents of all vegetable protein. It also has the highest content of Arginine of all commercially available proteins.
Our products are free from genetically modified materials, meat products, stimulants.
