What it is

Watermelon seed protein is a protein powder made from the seeds of watermelons. The seeds are typically dried, de-shelled, and then processed to extract the protein, often through mechanical pressing and grinding.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add watermelon seed protein to products primarily as a plant-based source of protein. It is used to boost the protein content in foods like energy and protein drinks, yogurts, and cereals, appealing to consumers seeking alternative protein sources.

Health notes

Watermelon seed protein is generally recognized as safe for consumption as a food ingredient. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not specifically evaluated watermelon seed protein as a food additive, as it is considered a basic food component. There are no known significant health concerns associated with its typical intake.
