Based out of California for over 15 years, Axiom Foods is the world’s first, largest and most innovative source for rice and pea proteins in addition to other all-natural, plant-based ingredients. As a food technology leader innovating functional, nutrition-packed, vegan ingredients in large commercial quantities, we work closely with the food, beverage, nutraceutical and specialty foods industries. David Janow (CEO & Founder) and our Axiom Foods team are dedicated to raising the bar with clinical trials, patented claims and the highest levels of quality from FDA GRAS, Non-GMO Project Verified and gluten-free, to highly concentrated plus neutral flavor and aroma.

Starting with only the highest quality crops, we derive all our products, from proteins to milk-alternatives and sweeteners, using minimal and chemical-free processing. The results are dietary-inclusive ingredients that help your brand manufacture clean label products for any and all consumers.

Since 2005 we have been committed to maximizing the potential of brown rice as the ultimate food product ingredient. Starting with our flagship Oryzatein® Brown Rice Protein, the first and only great tasting, patented and clinically-tested rice protein of its kind, we are continuing to expand its possibilities with multiple functional versions.

Available in multiple versions, this pea protein is produced from US and Canadian yellow non-GMO peas, using a natural chemical-free, water separation process. Different pea protein SKUs designed for different claims and budgets and include 80% vs 85% protein levels, it is available in one of the largest commercial supplies and delivers the most consistently enhanced sensory experience on the market.

As an excellent plant protein source, pea protein is rich both in iron and essential amino acids and especially high in Lysine and Arginine. It is being used as a replacement for and/or in conjunction with soy protein and whey protein in food grade products. It is also often blended with rice protein to complete the amino acid profile, as legumes and grains have complimentary amino acid levels.

In addition, it has a high level of functionality and can be utilized in a variety of foods and beverages where there is a need for protein enrichment.

Pea Protein

Oryzatein® (oh-RAHYZ-uh-teen) is the first patented allergen-friendly protein source from the whole rice grain, available in 80% and 90% protein levels. Providing all essential amino acids, this product is being used in food grade products as both a replacement for and in conjunction with soy protein and whey protein. It can also be blended with Vegotein™ Pea Protein which has a complimentary amino acid profile to achieve a complete protein.

Sourced from exclusive crops across Asia, Oryzatein® Original is manufactured in a state-of-the-art facility which can double capacity year over year. Produced by means of an all-natural, proprietary process, patented Oryzatein is a coarse grade, beige (light to medium), free-flowing powder with an ideally bland to sweet taste. Oryzatein is a nutritionally beneficial source of plant-based protein along with essential minerals like iron, magnesium and phosphorous.

The Oryzatein® Rice Protein Difference
Constantly Working to Provide the Most Natural & Healthiest Ingredients Possible Research. Innovate. Test. Improve. Repeat. That’s how we did it in 2005 and how we still do it today.

Axiom relies on research and innovation to create new and better ways of creating healthful, plant-based ingredients. That started with extracting protein from all layers of the whole grain rice, including bran, germ and endosperm, in a low-heat, hexane-free process and continues today with the creation of the first suspension-grade rice proteins.

Along the way all the rice and resulting proteins are tested again and again, from and gluten-free certification to testing for meeting Prop 65 standards.  In order to meet these strict standards, the Axiom team works to improve our processes through more research, innovation and partnerships. For example, as a founding member of the World Rice Alliance, we are constantly working to source rice that is low in naturally-occurring heavy metals from multiple countries at once, as Axiom does from ideal areas

Brown Rice Protein

Axiom Foods is rounding out the selection of functional, allergen-friendly, non-GMO plant proteins with three (3) Cucurbotein™ Pumpkin Protein (kyoo-CURB-oh-teen) options now available for sampling. The time for pumpkin seed protein has arrived as the bar has been raised on concentration levels, functional options and commercial supply.

Pepitas are cold-pressed to remove most of their oil content in order to increase shelf life and protein concentration. Similar to the nutrient dense seeds, Cucurbotein™ can be a good source of iron, zinc, copper, manganese, magnesium and potassium, and a rich source of protein dependent upon the serving  size used. It is rich in arginine, a conditionally essential amino acid which is needed by the body for a number of biological processes such as maintaining acid/base balance in the body, helping to excrete nitrogenous waste, making NO (nitric oxide) to support healthy heart and vascular function. Ideally blended with pea protein to achieve a complete protein claim, pumpkin protein also delivers a low level of heart-healthy unsaturated fatty acids.

Available with full certifications from field to manufacturer, three different pumpkin protein SKUs provide varying concentration and functionality options that fit different applications. 

At 55% concentration, our Raw Cucurbotein™ OR55 version is the most neutral pumpkin protein. 

The highest concentration at the most consistent supply worldwide, our Raw Cucurbotein™ OR65 version is also the highest concentration that is solvent-free, mechanically processed, and not China-sourced. Featuring a typical pumpkin taste and smell, plus higher viscosity per gram powder, OR65 has the greatest potential in protein powder beverage applications and bars.

Finally, the Toasted Cucurbotein™ OT59 has a different, more savory taste and smell, and a light brown color. Especially ideal for meat alternatives, it’s natural aroma would particularly benefit a faux chicken product.

Sacha Inchi Protein

Oryza™ (oh-RAHYZ-uh) is an allergen-friendly, white crystal derived from the whole rice grain. This rice sugar is primarily composed of glucose (dextrose monohydrate), which is the body’s primary source of energy. Oryza has a perceived sweetness level of 120 giving it the perception that it is sweeter than raw sugar, thus a smaller quantity is needed. Oryza can naturally aid in the absorption of electrolytes in oral rehydration products including sports drinks, according to World Health Organization (WHO) research. At a Glycemic Index of 98, Oryza is the ideal choice for food products intended to supply an easily-digested and rapid source of energy such as those for athletes or endurance sports. Alternatively, the glycemic load of a product can be reduced and regulated with the addition of dietary protein, a natural blood sugar buffer.

The proprietary all natural, hydrolyzation process breaks down the starches, resulting in extremely versatile and relatively healthy sweetener.

Oryza™ contains no fructose, no allergens, no chemicals, no sulfites and no GMOs.

Advantages of Oryza
• Oral rehydration formulas used for years
• Natural cooling effect like Xylitol
• Non-GMO
• 100% naturally derived products unlike corn syrup solids which use hexane method with sulfites and sulfates
• Ease of plating flavors
• Great carrier for other ingredients
• Allergen-friendly
• Economically efficient
• Ease of use
• Clean label

Applications
• Beverages—sports drinks, tea, coffee, drink mixes
• Desserts
• Infant formula
• Nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals
• Product substitution for high-fructose corn syrup solids
