Our products' major source of protein is soy protein concentrate, which is a good source of fibre, as well as folate, but most importantly, it’s the only commonly consumed plant protein that’s comparable in quality to animal protein.
Protein quality is typically defined in terms of protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS), which is a measure of its essential amino acid composition and digestibility. Higher PDCAAS means higher quality, with 1.00 being the highest score possible. Soy protein concentrate (the ingredient that contributes most of the protein in Impossible™ products), has a published PDCAAS of 0.95.
Soy protein’s high PDCAAS means you get plenty of nutritional bang for your buck with our products.
