Key facts

NUTRALYS® pea protein

  • Nutritious and sustainable source of plant protein from the yellow pea
  • Helps support muscle mass maintenance*
  • Helps fill you up*
  • Helps moderate blood glucose peaks and dips*
  • Not a major allergen**
  • Non-GMO and gluten-free
  • Non-GMO project verified, kosher, and halal certified

 

*NUTRALYS® health benefits are supported by one single clinical study. Food manufacturers who would like to use NUTRALYS® pea protein for these benefits will have to run their own studies based on their own formulation. 

**Pea is not listed among major allergens and intolerant agents in EU (Annex II Regulation 1169/2011) neither in the Codex list of allergens to be labeled (Codex Stan 1-1985 (Rev. 1-1991)-4.2.1.43). Due to a few rare reported allergic reactions with pea (and their derived products), we strongly suggest to our customer to list the botanical origin of their pea-derived products in their ingredient statement.
