SHANGHAI, Dec. 7 (Xinhua) -- U.S. agricultural giant Cargill has launched Radipure, a new pea protein product to meet Asian consumers' increasing demand for plant-based proteins.

Featuring high solubility with various tastes, the hypoallergenic, non-GMO pea protein is a highly versatile ingredient that can be used in dairy, ready-to-drink beverages, baked goods and can serve as a meat alternative, the company said.

"More consumers are seeking the benefits of a high-protein diet, and we are at the forefront of this trend and innovation with our latest pea protein offering," said Franck Monmont, managing director of Cargill's starches, sweeteners & texturizers business unit in Asia.

In addition to pea protein, Cargill has introduced other plant-based proteins such as wheat gluten and soy protein in the Asia market.
