Hydrolyzed wheat protein powder is a powdered product made by hydrolyzing wheat proteins (mainly prolamins and glutenins) into small peptides and amino acids. Due to its extremely small molecular size, it is easily absorbed and is therefore widely used in beauty and skincare products, hair care products, and meal replacement supplements.
What is Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Powder?
Hydrolyzed wheat protein powder is a highly soluble protein powder produced by hydrolyzing wheat proteins (chiefly prolamins and glutenins) into low molecular weight peptides and amino acids. This small molecular size allows for rapid absorption and outstanding functionality in cosmetics and food products.
What are the primary applications of this product in food?
It is widely used in protein shakes, nutrition bars, energy drinks, and sports supplements. In baking (bread, cakes, cookies), it helps retain moisture and improve texture. It is also an excellent ingredient for plant-based meat/dairy alternatives, soups, sauces, and powdered drinks.
How does Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein benefit cosmetics and personal care?
