So, what is proteìna vegetal hidrolizada?
"Proteína vegetal hidrolizada" is a highly processed plant-based protein that has undergone hydrolysis, a chemical reaction that breaks down protein molecules into smaller, more easily digestible peptides. This ingredient is commonly used as a substitute for animal protein in vegetarian and vegan products. It is derived from sources such as soy, wheat, peas, and corn, and has a neutral flavor and a powdery texture. "Proteína vegetal hidrolizada" is often added to sports supplements, protein bars, and meat alternatives to increase protein content and improve the texture of the product. It is a versatile ingredient that is valued for its high protein content, ease of digestion, and sustainability.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
