What it is

Hydrolyzed pea protein is made from peas. The peas are processed to break down their proteins into smaller pieces, making them easier to digest and use in food products. This process can also improve their solubility and texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use hydrolyzed pea protein as a plant-based protein source. It can also act as an emulsifier, helping to blend ingredients that don't normally mix, like oil and water. It is often found in protein bars, vegan meat alternatives, and dairy-free beverages.

Health notes

Hydrolyzed pea protein is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated pea protein. At typical intake levels found in food, it is not associated with adverse health effects. Research on the specific health impacts of hydrolyzed pea protein is ongoing.

Allergen info

Peas are not one of the nine major allergens designated by the FDA. Hydrolyzed pea protein is also gluten-free.
