What it is
Lupin protein concentrate is made from lupin beans, a legume native to the Mediterranean and Africa. The beans are processed to remove most of the carbohydrates and fiber, leaving a concentrated source of protein.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add lupin protein concentrate as a plant-based protein source and for its emulsifying properties. It is often found in vegan meat alternatives, baked goods, and breakfast items.
Health notes
Lupin protein concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a good source of protein and fiber. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated lupin, but did not set a numeric acceptable daily intake (ADI). Lupin is a known allergen for some individuals.
Allergen info
Lupin is not one of the FDA's nine major allergens. However, it is a common allergen for people with peanut allergies, and can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. It does not contain gluten.
