PEPTIPLUS® provides healthy protein power
Collagen is an important protein source, providing the nutrients required for the many processes that take place in muscles and cells. With PEPTIPLUS®, GELITA offers pure collagen proteins which can be used in a variety of functional sport bars, beverages or protein powders. PEPTIPLUS® replaces energy used in training and is beneficial for satiety. It is easily absorbed by the body so that its energy becomes readily available.
PEPTIPLUS® in protein beverages
Due to its excellent solubility in cold water, PEPTIPLUS® is ideal to produce sports and protein drinks. As a pure collagenous protein with neutral odor and taste, PEPTIPLUS® allows for a high protein load without affecting the sensory profile. It provides low viscosity even at high concentrations and excellent clarity without any precipitation in beverages. PEPTIPLUS® is compatible with most ingredients and can be easily blended with vitamins, minerals, trace elementsor single amino acids. In combination with other proteins, PEPTIPLUS® can help to limit the sometimes poor sensory properties of these.
PEPTIPLUS® in powder formulations
PEPTIPLUS® is available either as a fine powder or agglomerated powder for instant beverage mixes or Instant Protein Shakes. The PEPTIPLUS® collagen peptides offer excellent flowability without any cohesion, so that no flow additives or other excipients are necessary to use. When stirred into liquids, PEPTIPLUS® based instant blends provide outstanding wettability and solubility without clumping. Additionally, the agglomerated powder ensures dust-free handling.
PEPTIPLUS® in functional bars
Due to its excellent sensory and functional properties, PEPTIPLUS® can be used as an ingredient in numerous types of functional bars. In cereal bars in particular, PEPTIPLUS® is meaningful as a binding agent. It is an ideal adhesive; even at low concentrations it adequately binds dry substances. By using PEPTIPLUS® in bar recipes, the sugar content can be reduced or even eliminated. It is especially valuable in protein bars as it has no bitter taste and with its unique functional properties, contributes to a conveniently production process of bars resulting in high protein bars with optimal texture and shelf life.
