Introducing Revolupin: Food for the Future for Veganuary and Beyond<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re trying to include more plant-based foods in your diet, you might be interested in lupins. Lupins are the largest legume (pulse) crop grown down under, and they\u2019re also one of the world\u2019s richest sources of plant-based protein and dietary fibre (1). They contain three times more protein than eggs and three times more fibre than oats.
\nLupins are also a good source of a range of micronutrients including calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron. Due to it being naturally gluten-free, lupins are a great substitute for wheat flour and are often used in gluten-free products and recipes, meaning it\u2019s suitable for most people\u2019s diets.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Lupins are a popular food in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean countries. Revolupin have developed lupin flours and flakes which can easily be incorporated into your favourite recipes. Revolupin flakes take just three minutes to cook, making them a quick, convenient and healthy food to include in your diet.<\/p>\n

You might like to include lupins in:<\/p>\n

Porridge & muesli
\nDips and sauces
\nCrunchy coatings and toppings
\nBaking
\nSalads and stir-frys
\nStuffing, burgers and patties
\nFlapjacks and energy balls<\/p>\n

Lupins pack a punch in terms of their nutritional content; they\u2019re high-fibre, high-protein and low-carb. They\u2019re also versatile, quick and easy. Even better, there\u2019s a fast-growing evidence base to suggest that they\u2019re good for us too, especially in those looking to improve heart health, lose weight, or optimise their gut health.<\/p>\n

Packed full of protein and fibre, Revolupin Flakes help you feel fuller for longer! Studies have shown that adding lupin to a meal increases satiety (the feeling of fullness) and lowers the body\u2019s total energy intake throughout the day. Two small randomised controlled trials (gold-standard clinical evidence) found that lupin-enriched bread increases satiety and reduces calorie intake compared with standard white bread (2).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Studies also demonstrate that adding lupin fibre into the diets of healthy adults results in beneficial effects on gut health; it stimulates healthy bacterial growth (3), improves markers of healthy bowel function (4), and may reduce risk factors for colorectal cancer (5).<\/p>\n

Dr Joanna McMillan, Dietitian and Leading Health Expert says: \u201clupin is exceptionally high in protein and fibre which makes it a good addition to your baked goods, smoothies, breakfast or salad. Dietitians have been raving about lupin lately!\u201d<\/p>\n
