Protein continues to trend in consumer nutrition preferences, but popular solutions are not without their limitations. Whey protein is experiencing a shortage in the market, and manufacturers are replacing whey protein in formulations to match demand with a formidable product.
In a groundbreaking new movement, yeast protein is dominating the scene with a unique makeup of components that provide enhanced benefits. Explore the yeast protein frontier and learn how Osage is adapting to replenish a shifting protein market with a mode of production executed through SolvPro® and Revyve.
Yeast is a nutritionally dense organism that contains protein, dietary fiber, B vitamins and minerals.
Unlike whey proteins and other dairy-based formulations, yeast protein is a plant-based compatible compound that is 100% dairy-free and vegan. Other notable qualities include a complete amino acid profile and a Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) of 1.0, which surpasses single-source plant proteins and even matches whey protein as the top standard.
When applied to a product formulation, yeast protein provides the nine essential amino acids that the body requires, making it a viable and marketable ingredient to optimize for today’s consumer protein craze.
In a new collaboration, SolvPro® is now featuring ingredients from Revyve, a food-ingredient tech company based in the Netherlands, to leverage this new vehicle. Revyve has unlocked yeast functionality with a gentle isolation method that maintains integrity of the protein and fiber, along with other nutrients.
Revyve offers two proprietary yeast protein ingredient solutions that contribute to formulations:
Revytal: Supports cellular renewal with protein and micronutrients.
Thryve: Optimal for fiber-forward formulations and a desirable texture.
Revytal and Thryve each carry industry-leading properties for use, including:
The Revyve ingredients provide protein and fiber in a range of formats.
The evolution of snacks and baked goods continues to rely on protein, and the familiar taste and mouthfeel of yeast lends itself to baking formulations and similar executions.
An uptake in protein intake dominates consumer demand, and yeast protein fulfills that need. The recovery potential of yeast protein is substantial, where formulations crafted for exercise reduce fatigue and can help boost recovery.
Older adults often need to pay extra attention to their protein consumption, to maintain their intake of vitamins and nutrients that supports healthy aging. Yeast protein houses B vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, iron and zinc, all important qualities in a complete protein that supports older adults and their nutrition missions.
SolvPro® carries three distinct blends that capitalize on the robust qualities of Revyve yeast protein ingredients:
SolvPro 308®: A yeast protein blend with high digestibility and neutral taste for application.
SolvPro 309®: The yeast protein that promotes functional nutrition with beta-glucan immune support and B vitamins for energy.
SolvPro 310®: A blend of yeast, pea and fava bean protein with the potential to support longevity and aging.
Osage is the SolvPro® distributor that offers the Revyve enhancements in yeast protein systems that are set to change the protein game. Contact the Osage team to discuss incorporating SolvPro® with Revyve into your next formulation.
