Peanut powder has a useful but specific role
The inspected Organic PBfit product lists roasted peanuts, coconut sugar and salt, with 7 g protein and 60 calories per stated serving. It can add peanut flavor and protein to a meal, but these figures are not a measured digestibility or amino acid score. [1]
Complete is not the same as a large protein number
FAO evaluates protein quality using indispensable amino acid amounts relative to requirements and their digestibility. A protein total alone cannot answer that question. The inspected PBfit page does not provide a product-specific DIAAS assessment, so it would be unjustified to assign one or claim equivalence to a different protein. [2]
Consider the rest of the day’s foods
Imagine stirring PBfit into oats and also eating other protein foods through the day. The peanut protein contributes to that varied intake; it need not be treated as a sole-source food. Someone with a peanut allergy should avoid it, and mixing the powder into another food does not remove that allergen. [1][3]
| Question | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| 7 g protein | An amount, not a quality score |
| Varied meals | Consider the overall intake |
| Peanut allergy | The powder remains peanut-based |
