A natural protein concentrate from oats
PrOatein Oat protein is a natural unique plant-based protein concentrate based on Swedish oats that helps manufacturers to meet the fast-growing consumer demand for nutritious, protein-enriched foods and supplements. It is vegan-friendly, has a mild oaty flavour and is an excellent alternative to other dairy and vegetable protein sources. All of which makes PrOatein the ideal ingredient for boosting protein content in a wide range of products.

Protein quality
Protein is an important part of the diet and plays an essential role in the structural and functional components of the body. PrOatein oat protein, like the oat grain it comes from, contains significant amounts of dietary indispensable amino acids, particularly the BCAAs leucine, isoleucine, and valine, which are important for muscle growth and repair in people of all ages. Oat protein contains more SAA and tryptophan than pea protein; more SAA and valine than soy protein; and has more indispensable amino acids than wheat protein. PrOatein also has a great taste compared to other isolated plant proteins.
Applications
PrOatein boosts the protein content of many types of products. As a fine, free-flowing powder, PrOatein produces a neutral colour and flavour, while its scent is similar to that of oat bran. As a result, PrOatein easily integrates into recipes, making it accessible for manufacturers to boost their products with the nutritional benefits of protein.
Furthermore, PrOatein is a natural ingredient that can be labelled on ingredients lists simply as “oat protein” and so is attractive to those manufacturers looking to appeal to consumer demand for protein-enriched oat products.
A clean-label ingredient, whose unique, patented process is totally without chemicals or solvents, PrOatein has good wettability and non-stick qualities.

- Bars
