Lupin flour is a type of flour made from the seeds of the Lupin flower. In recent years there had been renewed interest in using lupin flour in regular foods, it has a high protein and fibre content and can be easily incorporated into many grain products such as bread. Most of the world's commercial lupin supply, about 80 per cent, is grown in Western Australia. It sold for use as liverstock feed while conditioning the soil by nitrogen fixing.[3]
Edible lupins are referred to as sweet lupins because they contain smaller amounts of toxic alkaloids than the bitter lupin varieties. Newly bred variants of sweet lupins are grown extensively in Germany; they lack any bitter taste and require no soaking in salt solution. The seeds are used for different foods from vegan sausages to lupin-tofu or baking-enhancing lupin flour. Protein content slightly over 30%. Used to replace soy products in specialty baking and pasta products. Can also replace eggs and butter to enhance colour. Contains non-starch polysaccharides which act like both soluable, such as oat fibre and insoluable fibre, Bran fibre. Naturally high in antioxidents, tocopherols. 50g has 100% daily intake.[4]
Those taking part in the study were put on a weight loss diet and split into two groups. For a year, one group ate food incorporating the 40 per cent lupin flour, included bread, pasta and biscuits, and the other group ate foods made solely with wholemeal flour. The researchers found that while both the lupin group and the wholemeal group lost similar amounts of weight, the lupin group displayed bigger improvements in several heart disease risk factors.[3]
Allegry risks[edit]
Lupin allergy has been recognised for some time in Europe, where lupin flour is used widely to replace cereal grains in rice, pasta and bakery products.[5] The prevalence of lupin allergy has increased markedly in some countries, especially France, which permitted the addition of lupin flour to wheat flour in 1997. [6] The major allergens in lupin are also found in peanuts.[5]
