This Faba Bean Protein Powder is made from North American (Canada, USA) grown faba beans, with an impressive minimum protein content of 90% (dry basis). Faba Bean (Vicia faba), alternatively known as Fava or Broad Bean, is renowned for its nutritional richness, encompassing high protein levels, ample fibre, and essential nutrients such as iron and folate. This ingredient is an ideal alternative to Pea or Rice Protein for a plant-based protein source of exceptional quality and sustainability. The Faba Bean Protein Powder is less grainy and more pleasant to the palate, making it suitable in combination with other plant-based proteins in any recipe.
