Description

Watermelon seed protein, derived from the seeds of Citrullus lanatus, is a premium plant-based protein offering a complete amino acid profile. This includes essential branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) such as leucine, isoleucine, and valine, which are critical for muscle growth and repair. In addition to its high protein content, it is a rich source of vital minerals like magnesium, iron, and zinc, as well as healthy fats and dietary fiber. These nutritional attributes make it an excellent choice for promoting overall health, enhancing satiety, and supporting muscle maintenance.

To meet the growing demand for sustainable and plant-based protein solutions, Alfa Chemistry offers high-quality watermelon seed protein. Utilizing advanced extraction techniques such as cold-pressing, de-fatting, and milling, the protein is processed into a fine, off-white powder with a neutral flavor, making it versatile for incorporation into various products.
