Plant-Based Breakout Now - Plant Protein You Didn't Know

 Now more and more people begin to pay attention to and pursue health and pay attention to balanced nutrition. Therefore, many people are beginning to focus on vegetarianism or reducing the intake of animal food. The plant protein market is gradually emerging. Besides soy protein, what other plant proteins do you know?

Plant protein may become the future trend.

In January 2019, DuPont Nutrition & Health and Health Focus International released a report on changing trends in plant-based diets in the United States, interviewing more than 1,000 U.S. consumers about their eating habits. The results show that 52% of U.S. consumers prefer plant-based foods and beverages, and almost 60% of respondents say the shift to a plant-based diet will be permanent; a stark example of this is the choice of whey-based ingredients Consumers of protein powders are increasingly turning to plant-based sources, such as pea-based or rice-based sources.


1. An old friend in plant protein: soy protein

Soy products are reputed to have the highest content of plant protein and are the main food source for vegetarians to supplement protein. In addition, soybeans are rich in vegetable protein that can meet the functional needs of the human body. In addition, there are various substances beneficial to human health such as isoflavones and amino acids. In terms of amino acid content, soybean protein is the only vegetable protein reported so far that contains 9 essential amino acids required by the human body and the content meets the needs of the human body, and is recognized as a full-value protein.

Drinks made with soy protein are known as "green milk" by nutritionists. Soy protein has a significantly lower effect on people with high cholesterol. Soy protein drinks are easier to digest and absorb than milk. After milk enters the stomach, it is easy to form large and hard lumps, while soy milk forms into small flakes after entering the stomach, and it is soft and not hard, which can make it easier to digest and absorb.
