HOW DOES IT WORK?
Contributes Protein
During digestion, peanut proteins are broken down into amino acids that the body can use for protein synthesis and normal maintenance of body tissues.
Provides Dietary Fats
The predominantly unsaturated fat profile of peanuts contributes dietary energy and forms an important part of the ingredient's nutritional composition.
Contributes Fibre
Peanut fibre is largely resistant to digestion in the small intestine and contributes to total dietary fibre intake.
Provides Nutritional Diversity
Protein, fats, fibre, micronutrients and phytochemicals give peanuts a broad nutritional profile rather than a single-nutrient function.
Creates Food Structure
The ground peanut matrix provides the creamy base in which the remaining ingredients can be dispersed, giving the formulation its spreadable consistency.
