Rice Protein is an excellent source of vegan, hypo-allergenic protein. Most people are familiar with soy and whey protein, and while they each provide sound nutrition, rice protein offers additional benefits. Whey protein comes from milk, and some people either cannot or do not wish to use animal-based protein. Soy protein often is difficult for people to digest and may pose allergy risks, plus some individuals simply don’t like the taste. Rice protein offers a vegan alternative to soy, without the animal products of whey. And rice protein actually is utilized more efficiently by the body than soy, too. Rice protein is suitable for use by those with food allergies and has even been used for gavage feeding (tube feeding) of infants, the elderly and the severely ill. It has a mild flavor similar to that of Cream of Rice cereal and may be used in beverages, sprinkled on cereals and yogurt, and added to cooked dishes to boost the protein content without adding fat or a lot of calories. At about 58 calories per tablespoon (or 15 gram serving), rice protein is one of the lightest protein sources around.
Rice Protein is made from gluten free California brown rice and is processed by a natural enzyme that is not related to wheat or any of its relatives. Therefore, processing of the rice does not contaminate the rice protein with gluten in any way. We recommend that further concerns regarding the Rice Protein for those with severe food sensitivities should consult their doctor or dietician.
