Faba Bean Protein Isolate (Australia)

A plant protein to support a healthy body.

Proteins are the building blocks of our body. They help us stay strong and healthy. You can get protein from many sources, but not all proteins are the same – they differ in their nutritional quality. Our Faba bean protein isolate is a plant-based protein derived from the seeds of the faba bean, (also known as broad beans or Vicia faba).

STEP ASIDE SOY AND PEA: ELEVATE YOUR NUTRITION WITH FABA BEAN PROTEIN

Plant Based

It is an excellent source of plant-based protein, ideal for vegetarians, vegans, and those looking to reduce their intake of animal products.

High Quality Plant Protein

Leguminous proteins such as faba beans are generally regarded as valuable sources of amino acids and are therefore often considered nearly as valuable as animal proteins or used as an alternative to them.

Process

Faba beans are harvested, stored, de-hulled, split and cleaned before being sent to the manufacturing site for processing and to extract or ‘isolate’ the protein in a powder form.

GMO is not in our nature

Farmers are committed to healthy environments and farming naturally. to keep their pasture and animals healthy. Nothing they grow contains genetically modified organisms.

Sustainability

As a nitrogen-fixing crop, faba beans are a sustainable crop that can help improve soil fertility and reduce the need for added fertilisers.

FEATURES

Faba bean protein isolate is a plant-based protein derived from the seeds of the faba bean, also known as broad beans. Our faba bean protein powder is sustainably grown in Australia and produced through a process that involves extracting the protein from the beans, resulting in a product with a high protein content and minimal amounts of carbohydrates and fats.

Key features of our faba bean plant protein
  • Smooth Flavour: Faba bean protein is known for its smooth flavour and texture, making it a favourable option compared to some other plant-based protein sources that may have a gritty or chalky consistency.
  • Source: Faba beans are legumes, similar to lentils and chickpeas. They have been cultivated for thousands of years and are a staple in many cultures.
  • Production: The protein powder is made by drying and milling the beans into a fine powder. It often undergoes further processing to concentrate the protein content.
  • Nutritional Profile: Faba bean protein powder is high in protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. It contains essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source, although its lysine content may be lower compared to animal proteins.

BENEFITS

Incorporating high-quality plant protein into a balanced diet can provide numerous health benefits for individuals of various life stages and with different health and fitness goals. Faba bean protein powder is a nutritious and sustainable plant based protein source with multiple health benefits, making it a valuable addition to a balanced diet.

Some benefits include:
  • Muscle Growth and Repair: Renowned for supporting muscle growth, repair, and maintenance with BCAAs, particularly leucine, which may stimulate muscle protein synthesis.
  • Exercise Recovery: Can aid recovery by replenishing protein stores and reducing muscle soreness due to its fast absorption of amino acids post workout.
  • Convenient Nutritional Supplement: Convenient source of high-quality protein to help meet daily requirements, especially for those with increased protein needs or limited dietary intake.
  • Weight Management: Can promote satiety, preserve lean muscle during weight loss, reduce appetite, and aid in fat loss through its thermogenic effect.
  • Immune System Support: May enhance the production of glutathione, an antioxidant that protects cells and strengthens the immune response.
  • Bone Health: May contribute to bone health by providing essential nutrients that support bone formation and strength, potentially reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

Proudly Australian Made

Our faba bean protein powder is sustainably grown in Australia. The process involves harvesting, de hulling, splitting, and cleaning the beans before extracting the protein, resulting in a product with high protein content and minimal carbohydrates and fats. As a nitrogen-fixing crop, faba beans enhance soil quality and promote higher yields in rotational farming. After processing, the leftover dry matter serves as eco-friendly compost. By choosing our Australian-made faba bean protein powder, you support sustainable farming and enjoy a high-quality, nutritious product.
