What it is

Mung bean protein isolate is a plant-based protein derived from mung beans. It is produced by isolating the protein content from the beans, often through processes like grinding, extraction, and purification.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use mung bean protein isolate as a source of plant-based protein and for its functional properties, such as emulsification and binding. It is commonly found in plant-based meat alternatives, dairy-free products, and protein supplements.

Health notes

Mung bean protein isolate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. JECFA has evaluated proteins from legumes, including mung beans, and has not specified a numerical ADI. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.
