Protein fortification
Navigating a protein fortification world
Protein is top-of-mind for consumers seeking health benefits from their food and beverages. Aside from their nutritional benefits, proteins contribute to fullness, satiety and can add body to a wide range of applications — from spoonable dressings to snack bars and more.
