What is leaf concentrate or leaf protein and how is it different from dried green leaf powder?
A. Leaf powder is the whole leaf dried with the stems sifted out. Leaf concentrate or leaf protein, as it was originally called, is made by coagulating juice pressed from certain green leaves. Virtually all of the fiber has been removed. Leaf concentrate is a more expensive product made by a more complex process. Leaf concentrate is extremely rich in nutrients and is about 55% protein when dried. It is an excellent food for rehabilitating malnourished children. Dried leaf powder is much easier to make at home and is intended for day to day use by people trying to maintain basically good health.
