What it is

Hydrolyzed corn protein is made by breaking down corn protein into smaller pieces called amino acids. This process is done using acids, enzymes, or heat. It is often used as a source of flavor.

International bodies like JECFA have evaluated it. While some people may be sensitive to hydrolyzed proteins, they are generally considered safe for most consumers at typical intake levels.

Allergen info
