Lantmännen Biorefineries is pleased to announce the launch of PrOatein Organic, the new version of its best-selling oat protein concentrate, PrOatein.
PrOatein Organic is produced via a natural process from organic, Swedish oats, and is an excellent alternative or complement to other plant-based protein sources. It can be used to boost the protein content of a wide range of applications, including bread, pasta, dairy analogues and lifestyle nutrition products.
The protein content of bars can be boosted by adding PrOatein oat protein. It has a pleasant flavor profile and can be combined with other legume proteins to increase the protein content of bars without compromising the pleasant taste.
Organic oat protein is a high-quality, plant-based protein that is extracted from oats grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. As a sustainable alternative to animal protein, organic oat protein offers many benefits and a good amino acid profile. It is suitable for vegans and those with allergies or intolerances, and can be used in a wide range of applications.
In the food industry, organic oat protein can be used as a protein boost in smoothies, protein bars, and baked goods. It can also be used as a protein powder, mixed with any liquid to make a shake or added in meat analogues for a protein boost. Its lactose-free and allergy-friendly properties make it a good option for those with dietary restrictions.
In addition to its protein content (55%), organic oat protein contains essential amino acids including leucine, isoleucine, and valine (BCAAs), which support muscle growth and repair, and are involved in wound healing and metabolism. It also contains apolipoproteins (SAAs) with potential positive effects on inflammatory processes, and tryptophan, an amino acid that impacts mood and performance and has a calming effect.
As a sustainable and versatile plant-based protein, PrOatein organic oat protein is a valuable addition to any business looking to offer healthy and environmentally friendly protein options. Its benefits and amino acid profile make it a strong choice for a variety of applications.
