So, what is sunflower protein?

Sunflower protein is a plant-based protein derived from sunflower seeds. It is a rich source of essential amino acids, including lysine, which is often deficient in other plant-based proteins. Sunflower protein is highly digestible and suitable for individuals with dairy or soy allergies. It has a neutral taste and can be used as a protein supplement in smoothies, baked goods, or as a meat substitute in savory dishes. Sunflower protein is also a sustainable alternative to animal-based proteins as it requires fewer resources to produce and has a lower carbon footprint.
