A plethora of new proteins has arrived in the food industry; join this webinar as we discuss these new sources and their promise.
This webinar will look beyond soy, dairy and traditional grains to investigate emerging protein sources -- pulses, nuts, seeds, fungi and marine sources – as well as new ones being created through biofermentation. It will look at the traditional applications these new sources are taking over, plus novel products the traditional proteins could not help create. Our speakers will address applications, the bioavailability of different protein sources (PDCAAS scores), the advantages and disadvantages of different proteins and how to mask and otherwise deal with off-notes. We’ll even bring up GLP-1 drug diets and the role protein-fortified foods play in them.
