'LENTEIN' hopes to introduce the world to a protein-rich plant powder that offers an alternative to protein from animals. As the brand reports, "by 2030 the world’s fresh water supply is expected to fall short of demand by as much as 40%," and it takes thousands of liters to produce just one kilogram of meat.
LENTEIN Complete takes the form of a fresh green protein powder that may be incorporated into dry-mix goods such as: chips, crackers, snack-mixes, bars and cereal clusters, as well as beverages like protein shakes and meal replacements.
As LENTEIN is sourced from an aqua farm, 98% of the water used in production gets recycled for the next batch. This source of plant-based protein is also rich in antioxidants, minerals and vitamins, plus it is said to be extremely easy to digest in comparison to other plant proteins.
