Plant-Based Proteins
Plant Protein is food source of protein which is from plants. This group can include pulses, tofu, soya, tempeh, seitan, nuts, seeds, certain grains and peas. Pulses are a large group of plants, which include chickpeas, lentils, beans and split peas. Plant proteins are sustainable and highly nutritious, not only as good sources of protein, but also because they provide other nutrients such as fibre, vitamins and minerals.
Characteristics: Non-GMO Plant Protein ingredients include isolates and concentrates as powders and textures from faba, pea, mung bean and soy.
