What it is

Soy protein hydrolysate is made from soybeans. The protein from soybeans is broken down into smaller pieces using enzymes or acids. This process makes it easier to digest and absorb.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use soy protein hydrolysate as a protein source and to add a savory flavor. It can also help improve texture in foods. You can find it in products like soy sauce, processed meats, and snack foods.

Health notes

Soy protein hydrolysate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated soy proteins. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts found in food.

Allergen info

Soy is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. People with a soy allergy should avoid products containing soy protein hydrolysate.
