What it is

Rice protein is a protein supplement made from rice. It is a plant-based alternative to animal proteins, designed to provide the amino acids (the building blocks of protein) that the body needs to function.

Why it's used

It is primarily used by people who avoid dairy or meat to help build and repair muscles. It is often chosen because it is hypoallergenic, meaning it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction compared to soy or whey.

How it compares to Plant Protein

While rice protein is a type of plant protein, it differs from the broader category which often includes blends of various sources.

FeatureRice ProteinGeneral Plant Protein
SourceOnly derived from riceOften a mix of pea, soy, hemp, or rice
Amino Acid ProfileLow in lysine (an essential amino acid)Often balanced by mixing different plants
DigestibilityGenerally easy on the stomachVaries depending on the plant source used

How it's made

The process begins by soaking rice grains in water and adding enzymes to break down the starch. The mixture is then separated to remove the starch, leaving behind a protein-rich liquid. This liquid is filtered and dried into a fine powder, which is then milled for use in supplements.

What it typically costs

This supplement is generally affordable. This is because rice is one of the most widely grown and mass-produced crops in the world, making the raw ingredients cheap and easy for manufacturers to source.
