Cyvex Nutrition (Irvine, CA) has introduced Alfapro Agglomerated, a highly dispersible grade of the company...s alfalfa protein concentrate.

Suitable for powdered beverages, sachets, and stick packs, the company...s ingredient provides 50% protein, amino acids, and plant-based omega-3s, among other nutrients.

'Though it retains the same nutritional profile as Cyvex's existing Alfapro line, Alfapro Agglomerated benefits from a particle-binding and solidifying process that improves powder consistency, reduces bulk density and eliminates premixing,' says the company. 'As a result, beverage manufacturers are guaranteed an ingredient that can be combined with other components to create a homogeneous mix, deliver superior dispersibility, and ensure a lump-resistant finished product.'

Alfapro Agglomerated will be featured in booth #19055 at the upcoming SupplySide West tradeshow in Las Vegas.
