Why mixed plant proteins？

The Classic & Synergistic Plant Protein Combination

1. Nutrition-Perfect Complementary Amino Acid Profile

Essential amino acids are organic compounds that your body needs to function. They cannot be synthesized within the body and consequently must be supplied through the diet. Complete protein means that the protein has a complete essential amino acid profile and that the amount of each essential amino acid achieves the WHO/FAO-recommended amino acid pattern. Each plant protein has its own “ limiting amino acids”. 

For example, for beans source plant protein, like pea protein, its limiting amino acid is Methionine, while for cereal and seeds source plant protein, like rice protein, its limiting amino acid is Lysine. In order to make full use of the nutritional value of plant proteins, we can combine different plant proteins in certain proportions to get complete proteins.

2. Sensory-Better Flavor & Smoother Mouthfeel

The combination of pea protein powder and rice protein powder can neutralize the color of the powder as well as the salty taste and beany flavor of pea protein and the bitterness, grittiness & chalky mouthfeel of rice protein. 

3. Enhanced Functionality for Mainstream Applications

Rice protein has low solubility, while pea protein has good solubility. When mixed with pea protein, it can be improved overall.
