Standard pea protein isolates often introduce formulation challenges such as heavy beany off-notes, high viscosity, turbidity, and high fat content. KEEP INGREDIENTS Hydrolyzed Pea Peptide (PTS Grade) utilizes targeted multi-enzyme hydrolysis to solve these bottlenecks completely:
Near-Zero Fat Profile (<0.1%): Achieved through multi-stage cold purification, making it the premier choice for lean sports nutrition, low-calorie beverages, and weight management.
Rapid Intestinal & Topical Delivery: Features an optimized low-molecular-weight spectrum (189–10,000 Da) and an in-vitro digestibility of 99.9%, bypassing complex digestion for rapid intestinal absorption.
Dual Oral & Cosmetic Applications: Rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, valine) and proline, serving as both a performance nutrition booster and a premium anti-aging active ingredient for personal care.

Powder Drinks & Sports Shakes (5% – 100%): Primary protein source rich in BCAAs for muscle synthesis and post-workout recovery.
Liquid Beverages & Clear Shots (2% – 10%): Stable in RTD protein drinks and functional shots without sedimentation.
Dairy & Plant-Based Milk Alternatives (3.5% – 8%): Boosts protein content in almond, oat, or soy milks without altering creamy textures.
Bakery & Nutrition Bars (2% – 33%): Retains dough moisture and extends product shelf life.
Personal Care & Cosmeceuticals (0.2% – 4%): (Food-Grade Raw Material) Formulated into topical anti-aging serums, scalp care, and anti-wrinkle solutions for skin elasticity and moisture binding.
European Union (EU Compliance): Hydrolyzed Pea Protein is Non-Novel Food. EU Allergen Warning: Final products MUST clearly state: "Contains Pea".
United States (US Compliance): DSHEA compliant. NOP Organic and Non-GMO IP supported with technical dossiers.
Formulation Troubleshooting:
pH Window: Best stability at pH 5.5 – 7.5. Run stability trials for low-pH (<4.0) clear beverages.
Thermal Stability: Pasteurization tolerant. Avoid long-time ultra-high heat to prevent Maillard browning.
