Oatmeal
Oats are a main ingredient in our Plenny shakes and have a low glycemic index. This means that blood sugar levels remain constant after consumption. This beneficial effect is mainly due to the insoluble fibers, called beta-glucans, which are naturally present in oats. By the way, those beta-glucans also help slow down digestion and help lower blood pressure and cholesterol. [33-37]
Present in: Plenny Shake (oat flour), Plenny Shake Active (oat flour), Plenny Drink (oat flour, oat fiber), Plenny Bar (oat flour)
Soy
We add soy flour and soy protein isolate, which add protein and fat to our Plenny meals. Soy flour contains mostly polyunsaturated fats and is responsible for a large part of the omega-6 content. Soy protein has a high digestibility and absorption rate, so we use soy protein isolate.
Did you know that soy has a PDCAAS of 1? This means that soy protein provides at least 100% of the essential amino acids needed after digestion. Soy is the only plant-based protein source that scores so well. On top of that, soy protein isolate has a smooth texture and taste, and contributes to an excellent flavor profile.
We added soy lecithin as a natural emulsifier, which allows the ingredients to stay well mixed. You can read more about soy in this article . [57-59]
Present in: Plenny Shake (soy flour, soy protein isolate), Plenny Shake Active (soy flour, soy protein isolate), Plenny Drink (soy protein isolate, soy lecithin), Plenny Pot (soy protein isolate), Plenny Bar (soy protein isolate)
Rice flour
Rice flour ensures that there are healthy carbohydrates in your meals, without sugars! Carbohydrates are mainly starch, and due to the absence of sugar, rice flour contributes to a more stable blood sugar after consumption . [53]
Present at: Plenny Shake
Blend of vitamins and minerals
It's important that nutritionally complete meals have the right amounts of micronutrients. That's why we add all 26 essential vitamins and minerals into a custom blend. This blend ensures that you consume at least 20% of the reference intake per serving. You can read more about micronutrients and the specific forms we add.
Present in: all products
Scent
Aroma, also known as flavourings, is added to our products to give them a pleasant taste and smell. Every aroma is carefully checked and reviewed by EFSA (the European Food Safety Authority) before it is available on the market, so safety is guaranteed. And what's more, aromas are only added in very small quantities. Tasty and harmless! You can find aromas in most of our products, both savoury and sweet. [1]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active (excluding neutral flavor), Plenny Pot, Plenny Drink, Plenny Bar.
Black beans
Black beans are found in the Plenny Pot Tikka Masala, where they work their magic by adding protein and fiber to the contents . [2]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Cocoa powder
Cocoa powder is a natural source of flavor, and we use it in all of our chocolate-flavored meals. It adds a bit of saturated fatty acids, while staying well below any established upper limits. On top of that, cocoa contains high concentrations of health-promoting polyphenols, which are presumed to have anti-inflammatory effects. [3,4]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, Plenny Drink, Plenny Bar
Calcium carbonate
Did you know that water and oil don't mix? That would be a problem for the Plenny Bar, which contains both water- and oil-based ingredients... But luckily, calcium carbonate is the knight in shining armor that comes to our rescue. It works as a stabilizer! This means that all the ingredients stay perfectly mixed and stable. And on top of that, calcium carbonate is a source of calcium . [5,6]
It is present in: Plenny Bar (stabilizer), all products (mixture of vitamins and minerals)
Carboxymethylcellulose
Carboxymethylcellulose is a fancy way of saying “cellulose gum.” This ingredient makes Plenny Drink creamier, which is awesome, because otherwise we’d have to use fats to make that! The fact that it thickens the consistency has some interesting health benefits: it slows down intake and gastric emptying, allowing all the nutrients to be absorbed and making you feel more satisfied throughout the day. [7,8]
Present in: Plenny Drink
Citric acid
Citric acid is used as an acidity regulator. This means that the acidity of the product is controlled, ensuring that no undesirable bacteria can grow and cause spoilage. In addition to extending shelf life, citric acid is also a source of vitamin C! [9,10]
Present in: Plenny Drink
Coconut
Coconut milk powder and coconut oil powder contribute to the total fat content of Plenny Pot. Because of their saturated fatty acid content, coconut fats are not always received with much enthusiasm. But coconut-derived fats consist of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) which current research suggests have a positive effect on weight loss, fat loss, energy burning, and improved gut health. To be sure, Plenny Pot's saturated fatty acid content is still well below the recommended upper limit of 10E%! [11-16]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Fruit powder
Our fruit-flavored meals are flavored and colored with real fruit! We use freeze-dried fruit powders, so there is no need to transport water. Freeze-drying is a dehydration method that produces high-quality products: loss of flavor and aroma is minimized, while the preservation of nutrients such as vitamins is maximized! [17]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active
Glucose syrup
Glucose syrup is added to Plenny Pots for an instant energy boost. However, the complex composition of this product prevents a sugar spike or crash. [18]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Glycerin
Glycerin is used as a humectant in Plenny bars: it prolongs shelf life by reducing water activity. It also retains moisture, adds volume and improves the softness of the food. [19]
Present at: Plenny Bar
Green lentils
Green lentils are found in Plenny Pot Tikka Masala, where they contribute to the protein and fiber content . On top of that, it gives a good flavor! [2]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Golden ground flaxseed
Did you know that flaxseed is one of the richest natural sources of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)? Its high content of α-linolenic acid (omega-3) and linoleic acid (omega-6) is especially important for the fatty acid profile of our meals. And compared to consuming the whole seed, the bioavailability of ALA is higher in ground flaxseed!
Ground flaxseed also contributes to the protein and fiber content of our products. In fact, it is the only source of insoluble fiber in our products.
Recently, concerns have been raised about the presence of high levels of hydrocyanic acid in flaxseed, especially cyanide. For this reason, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has strict regulations regarding the presence of these compounds. Flaxseed contains very small amounts of cyanide and the flaxseed we use undergoes heat treatment. This ensures that the amounts fall well below the safety limit recommended by the European Food Safety Authority! [20-25]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, Plenny Pot, Plenny Bar
Guar gum
Like carboxymethylcellulose, the consistency of Plenny Drink is thickened with guar gum. But even better: a moderate intake of this ingredient is associated with a cholesterol- and glucose-lowering effect, and helps to lose weight thanks to its gelling properties. Guar gum also contributes to increasing satiety, as it slows down the rate of intake and gastric emptying. [26,27]
Present in: Plenny Drink
Inulin/Chicory Root Fiber
Inulin, derived from chicory roots, is the main source of fiber in our products. It has a low calorific value because it is not digested. Instead, inulin goes to the colon and acts as a prebiotic: a source of nutrition for the good gut microbiota. This is great, because good bacteria help you stay healthy by leaving less room for bad bacteria to grow! In addition, inulin promotes the absorption of calcium, magnesium, and iron. [28-30]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, Plenny Pot, Plenny Bar
Maltodextrin
Maltodextrin is a sweet-tasting carbohydrate made from corn starch. It is added to some of our meals for quick energy. However, the complex composition of our meals and the presence of complementary carbohydrate sources counteract the energy spike it normally gives. Energy boost? Yes! Sugar spike? No! [31]
Present in: Plenny Pot Tikka Masala (0.53 grams), Plenny Drink (14.52-15.84 g), Plenny Bar (9.9 g - 15 g)
Microcrystalline cellulose
Plenny Drink is thickened with microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). MCC has fat-mimicking effects, making Plenny Drink creamier and a bit thicker. But perhaps even better: MCC also increases shelf life by increasing the overall stability of the food! [32]
Present in: Plenny Drink
Pea protein isolate
Pea protein isolate is made by, you guessed it, isolating the protein from peas. This protein powder contains all nine essential amino acids! But, like all other legume-based proteins, it lacks the amino acid methionine . That’s why, in addition to pea protein isolate, we added other plant-based protein sources to Plenny Pot. [38,39]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Potato starch
Potato starch is a resistant starch , meaning it doesn't digest very well in the stomach. It enters the large intestine mostly intact, where it acts as a fermentable fiber - feeding the good bacteria ! So potato starch actually contributes to a healthy gut environment! [40-42]
Present in: Plenny Pot
Probiotic: Bacillus coagulans
Probiotics is the collective term for live bacteria and yeasts that contribute to a healthy gut environment. While adding live microorganisms to a meal may seem a little scary, probiotics are not new to your body. Did you know that most of them are similar to the ones you already have?
But not all microorganisms are suitable to be probiotics. ProDURA® is one of the brands that produces Bacillus coagulans UABc-20. Based on the composition, this strain can survive extreme processing, shipping, storage, and heat, in addition to the natural challenges of the digestive tract. That's why Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, and Plenny Pot contain this type of probiotic to support your digestive health! [43-49]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, Plenny Pot
Rapeseed oil
Rapeseed oil is low in saturated fatty acids. On top of that, it has an excellent ratio of α-linolenic acid (ALA) to linoleic acid (LA), better known as omega-3 and -6 fatty acids. These beneficial polyunsaturated fats are important in a healthy diet because they help prevent heart disease and stroke. Since your body doesn't produce them naturally, we thought we could help you out by adding some rapeseed oil to Plenny Drink! [50-52]
Present in: Plenny Drink
Rice syrup
We use rice syrup (between 1.5g - 9.5g per bar) to bind the ingredients together. The exact amounts depend on the flavour. It is also a quick source of energy, but without peaks or crashes: energy absorption is kept under control thanks to the combination of protein and fat. [54,55]
Present at: Plenny Bar
Seasoning
We use spices and herbs to enhance the flavor of our tasty meals. This allows us to not only bring you the best flavor possible, but also keep the salt content to a minimum. Seasoning ingredients include cumin, ginger, coriander, turmeric, chili, paprika, celery, cinnamon, mustard, sugar, starch, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, tomato powder, yeast extract, spice extract, white pepper, cayenne pepper, oregano, and thyme. Yum! [56]
Present in: Plenny Pot
High oleic sunflower oil
Sunflower oil, extracted from sunflower seeds, is responsible for a large part of the fat content of Plenny products. Sunflower oil is low in saturated fats, which can cause high cholesterol and clogged arteries. More importantly, the sunflower oil we use is high in oleic . This means that it contains more polyunsaturated fatty acids than monounsaturated ones. Polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as omega 3 and 6, are essential for normal bodily functions, but they cannot be produced by the body itself!
In addition to numerous health benefits, high oleic sunflower oil has a neutral taste and is stable against oxidation due to its lower linoleic acid content. [60,50,51]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active, Plenny Pot, Plenny Bar
Sweetener: sucralose
Sucralose is a synthetic sweetener made by processing conventional sugar (sucrose), and was given the JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) designation of 'safe' in 1990. In the European Union, sucralose has been authorized as a substance in a wide range of food products since 2004. Sucralose has a sweetening power of approximately 600 times the sweetness of sucrose. Using sucralose allows us to provide a pleasant sweetness to products, keep the amount of sugar to a minimum , and ensure that blood sugar remains stable after a meal. [61-63]
Present in: Plenny Shake, Plenny Shake Active (excluding neutral flavour), Plenny Drink, Plenny Bar
Tapioca starch
As the name suggests, tapioca starch is almost completely pure starch, with a small amount of nutrients. It is also a resistant starch, which ends up intact in the large intestine. Here it acts as a fermentable fiber that feeds beneficial bacteria, contributing to a healthy gut environment. [64,65]
Present at: Plenny Bar
Vegetable powders
Our savory products are partially flavored with real vegetables! We use dried vegetable powders, such as tomato powder, so there is no need to carry water and the shelf life is extended. On top of that, we add dried vegetables to give the meals a nice bite. [66]
Present in: Plenny Pot
White rice
We add white rice for energy purposes, as its consumption causes a spike in blood sugar. However, this spike is countered by the complex macronutrient composition of the meal, so your blood sugar stays nice and stable! Plus: the cooking properties of white rice make it ideal for an instant meal like in the Plenny Pot. [67,68]
Present in: Plenny Pot (Lentil Tikka Masala, Vegetable Korma Rice)
Whole wheat pasta
Whole wheat pasta simply means that all the natural characteristics of the original grain are left intact. The natural fibers in whole wheat pasta increase the feeling of satiety and the lower glycemic index contributes to a limited rise in blood glucose. [69,70]
Present in: Plenny Pot (Creamy Cajun Pasta)
