Innovopro's White Paper on Chickpea Protein is Out
30 Oct 2023
Chickpeas are at the center of a growing global plant proteins trend, boosting the development of a new category of chickpea ingredients. Due to its high nutrition profile, great taste and being non-allergenic, chickpea protein is sparking interest among the general public as well as food technologists.
Innovopro's chickpea protein has taken center stage in the plant-based protein market, attracting food manufacturers seeking innovative, functional and sustainable added value solutions beyond soy, pea and other traditional protein ingredients, and working on overcoming the taste, allergenicity and functionality shortcomings of existing alternatives. CP-PRO 70® is the next-generation protein that satisfies consumers' desire for tasty and well-rounded nutrition.
Innovopro's chickpea protein is an innovative ingredient that enables formulating clean-label products, delivers high-quality plant-based protein without additives, and allows the creation of great food products, without compromising taste, texture or appearance.
CP-PRO 70® protein concentrate is a completely digestible high quality protein that contains high levels of selenium, iron, zinc, manganese, potassium, and choline. A serving size of 25g (suitable for meal-replacement solutions) provides over 26% DV (daily value) of protein, over 75% DV selenium, over 18% DV iron, 12%.
Modern western diets, high in salt (sodium chloride) and low in potassium, have been associated with high occurrence of hypertension. The prevalence of hypertension in the US has reached 30% of the population, with hypertension being the major risk factor for stroke and coronary heart disease1. The estimated potassium-to-sodium intake ratios in industrialized countries range from 0.12 to 0.63 while in societies with a low prevalence of hypertension, this ratio is 3.8 to 14.52. It has been proposed that increasing potassium intake can attenuate the effects of high-salt diets.
The potassium level in CP-PRO 70® exceeds 2000 mg/ 100 g and is much higher than in other plant-based proteins and foods generally recognized as rich in potassium, such as avocados, bananas, beans, peas, tomatoes and milk, with 150-550 mg/ 100 g. The high potassium and low sodium levels in CP-PRO 70®, with the healthy ratio of 15, is an excellent solution for supplementing daily potassium intake.
