A highly underestimated aspect when purchasing proteins is the consideration of flavours and sugars, essential components that are often not considered fundamental.
The universe of flavours needed to give flavour to proteins ranges from totally artificial to semi-synthetic flavours up to the most precious, that is, natural flavours. The taste perception of an artificial flavour is in most cases clear, the flavour is much stronger and obviously synthetic, a reproduction of the natural original but much more intense and often also very sweet.
The notes of a natural aroma are obviously much less strong and clearly more natural and do not leave synthetic aftertastes, the difference is notable and benefits the product and also our health, the quality of a product is reflected above all in this nowadays.
The food industry is now capable of offering tastes and flavors that were unknown until about twenty years ago. The use of food technology has reached such heights that even a poor-quality product can lead us to believe it is good only because of its taste.
Today, food technologists, using a mix of sweet and savory flavors and a series of thickeners, emulsifiers, and improvers, are able to offer a wide range of products of dubious quality but certainly delicious to the palate.
Always try to buy products with as few ingredients as possible and with a more natural flavor. We all know a famous coconut snack that is certainly delicious, and many of you would be surprised by the difference in taste between a coconut snack and coconut. The snack reproduces the aroma of coconut but multiplied a hundred times with the aim of then inducing the consumer to seek out that product again.
In proteins, the presence of natural flavouring absolutely certifies their high quality, even the presence of a more natural sugar such as erythritol or xylitol are synonymous with high quality . Currently, sucralose among chemical sugars also represents an excellent choice, with zero impact on glycemia.
Very low amount needed for sweetening and very high safety level.
In conclusion, always rely on products that are as natural as possible, ask your suppliers for information, and always do your research. This is the best way to nourish yourself and purchase the best the market has to offer in complete safety.
