Title: Nutritional products having improved organoleptic properties

Description:
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     The present disclosure relates to nutritional products comprising pea protein hydrolysates. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to infant, pediatric and adult nutritional products comprising pea protein hydrolysates having lowered immunological reactivity and improved flavor and organoleptic properties, including emulsion stability. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     Adult, pediatric, and infant manufactured nutritional liquids and powders comprising a targeted selection of nutritional ingredients are well known and widely available, some of which may provide a sole source of nutrition, while others may provide a supplemental source. These nutritionals include powders that can be reconstituted with water or other aqueous liquid, as well as concentrated and ready-to-drink nutritional liquids such as milk or protein based emulsions or non-emulsified or substantially clear liquids. These nutritional liquids are especially useful when formulated with selected nutritional ingredients. 
     Many individuals, and particularly infants, including preterm infants, experience intolerance to certain nutritional ingredients in the liquids and powders (formula intolerance). The terms “intolerance” and “formula intolerance” are used interchangeably herein. Intolerance is a non-immune system associated reaction and may be evidenced by behavior or stool or feeding pattern changes such as increased vomiting, an increased number of stools, or more watery stools as compared to individuals who tolerate nutritional ingredients well. Intolerance is most often indicated by gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g. emesis, stool patterns and gas) as well as behavioral characteristics (e.g. acceptance of formula, fussing and crying). 
     Intolerance can be contrasted with the allergic-type reactions that some individuals, and especially infants, exhibit to certain nutritional compositions. These allergic-type reactions are immune system associated, and may be caused by the individual&#39;s sensitivity to the protein present (generally cow milk protein) in the nutritional. These immune system associated allergies or sensitivities often result in cutaneous, respiratory or gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea. 
     Many individuals who exhibit allergies or sensitivities to cow milk proteins are able to utilize nutritional products based on soy proteins, and in particular, isolated soy proteins. 
     Hydrolysate-based formulas, some of which may be hypoallergenic, contain protein that has been hydrolyzed or broken down into short peptide fragments and amino acids and as a result is immunologically substantially inactive. Individuals who exhibit reactions to cow milk and soy proteins often will not react to hydrolysate formulas because their immune system does not recognize the hydrolyzed protein as the intact protein that causes their symptoms. Individuals who exhibit immune system-associated reactions to nutritional compositions including cow milk and/or soy proteins may also exhibit non-immune system associated reactions (formula intolerance), as previously described. 
     Although products based on extensively hydrolyzed proteins or amino acid mixtures are generally acceptable for individuals who are allergic to cow milk and soy proteins, they suffer from significant taste and organoleptic issues. While many attempts to avoid formula allergies and intolerance have been made by preparing nutritional compositions using hydrolyzed proteins, and particularly hydrolyzed soy proteins, it was not previously known how to formulate a nutritional product using hydrolyzed proteins without significantly adversely affecting the organoleptic properties of the product, and in particular, taste. For example, the use of hydrolyzed proteins commonly results in nutritional products that easily separate and/or precipitate out of solution, and further, are bitter, salty, sour, and/or beany in flavor. 
     The present disclosure is therefore directed to nutritional products in the form of nutritional liquids, powders, bars, and other food products comprising pea protein hydrolysates as the primary or sole source of protein. The pea protein hydrolysate has a degree of hydrolysis such that the resulting nutritional products are physically stable over shelf life and provide favorable organoleptic properties, while remaining substantially immunologically inactive. The nutritional product may also be used as a nutritional source for individuals who are intolerant and/or allergic to proteins other than pea proteins and/or who have malabsorption, maldigestion, or other gastroinstestinal conditions. 
     SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     One embodiment is a nutritional product including a pea protein hydrolysate having an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of between about 7.0% to less than 19.0%, including between about 8.0% and about 16.0%, including between about 8% and about 13.5%, and also including between about 12.0% and 16.0%. Additionally, in one embodiment, less than 5% of the proteins in the pea protein hydrolysate have a molecular weight of greater than 3 kDa. The product is in a form selected from the group consisting of a liquid beverage (e.g., nutritional emulsions, substantially clear nutritional liquids, and gels), a powder, a food product, a nutritional bar, and a nutritional supplement. Desirably, the product is an infant formula. 
     Another embodiment is a nutritional product including a pea protein hydrolysate having less than 15,000 μg of immunologically active pea antigen per 1 gram of protein. 
     Another embodiment is a method of making a nutritional product comprising combining a protein, a fat, and a carbohydrate. The nutritional product includes a pea protein hydrolysate having an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of between about 7.0% and less than 19.0% as its primary or sole source of protein. In one embodiment, less than 5% of the proteins in the pea protein hydrolysate have a molecular weight of greater than 3 kDa. In another embodiment, the pea protein hydrolysate has less than 15,000 μg of immunologically active pea antigen per 1 gram of protein. 
     The nutritional products as described herein comprise pea protein hydrolysates as sole or primary source of protein that not only provide a nutritional source for individuals who are intolerant and/or allergic to cow milk proteins and/or soy proteins, but also is physically stable and/or has organoleptic benefits in each of the selected product forms. In many embodiments, described herein, pea protein hydrolysate is the sole protein source such that the nutritional product is hypoallergenic and suitable for use in food-allergic patients. 
     It has now been found that these intolerance and/or allergic issues can be minimized or eliminated by formulating the nutritional product with a pea protein hydrolysate having an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of between about 7.0% and less than 19.0%, which produces a specific molecular weight profile and antigen content. Specifically, the use of these pea protein hydrolysates has been found to have reduced immunological activity. Further, pea protein hydrolysates having an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of between about 7.0% and less than 19.0% provide improved flavor and other improved organoleptic properties as compared to nutritional products including other hydrolyzed vegetable protein sources. As such, utilizing the hydrolyzed pea protein of the present disclosure it is now possible to produce pleasant tasting, hypoallergenic, tolerant hydrolysate-based nutritionals.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     The nutritional products described herein comprise pea protein hydrolysates as a source of protein. In many embodiments, the nutritional products comprise pea protein hydrolysates as a sole protein source such that the nutritional product is hypoallergenic and suitable for use in food-allergic patients. These and other essential features of the nutritional products, as well as some of the many optional variations and additions, are described in detail hereafter. 
     The term “hypoallergenic” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to a nutritional product that causes symptoms of an allergic reaction to food in less than 10% of food-allergic individuals. 
     The term “substantially clear nutritional liquid” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to a non-emulsified or similar other liquid having a visibly clear or translucent appearance, which liquid may and typically will have a thin or watery texture with a consistency similar to that of a clear juice and most typically having a viscosity of less than about 25 centipoise as determined by a Brookfield viscometer at 22° C. using a #1 spindle at 60 rpm. 
     The term “spray dried nutritional powder” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to a nutritional powder wherein the majority of the components, including the pea protein hydrolysate, have been homogenized and subsequently subjected to a spray drying process during manufacturing. Additional ingredients can be added to the spray dried powder through dry blending so long as at least the pea protein hydrolysate has been previously homogenized and spray dried. 
     The term “adjusted degree of hydrolysis” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to the degree of hydrolysis of a specified protein material, generally pea protein material, that has been adjusted or corrected to account for the measurable amino nitrogen content of the intact protein material. For example, if the intact, unmodified protein material has an amino nitrogen content of 8.68 and a protein that has been subjected to a hydrolysis procedure has a degree of hydrolysis of 16.68, the hydrolyzed protein has an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of 8.00. 
     The terms “fat” and “oil” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, are used interchangeably to refer to lipid materials derived or processed from plants or animals. These terms also include synthetic lipid materials so long as such synthetic materials are suitable for oral administration to humans. 
     The term “human milk oligosaccharide” or “HMO” refers generally to a number of complex carbohydrates found in human milk. Monomers found in milk oligosaccharides typically include D-glucose (Glc), D-galactose (Gal), N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAC), L-fucose (Fuc), and sialic acid [N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc)]. Elongation of these monomers may be achieved by attachment of GlcNAc residues linked in β1-3 or β1-4 linkage to a Gal residue followed by further addition of Gal in a β-1-3 or β-1-4 bond. Most HMOs carry lactose at their reducing end. From these monomers, a large number of core structures may be formed. Further variations may occur due to the attachment of lactosamine, Fuc, and/or NeuAc. 
     The term “shelf stable” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to a nutritional product that remains commercially stable after being packaged and then stored at 18-24° C. for at least 3 months, including from about 6 months to about 24 months, and also including from about 12 months to about 18 months. 
     The terms “nutritional composition” or “nutritional product” as used herein, are used interchangeably and, unless otherwise specified, refer to nutritional liquids, nutritional powders, nutritional bars, nutritional supplements, and any other nutritional food product as known in the art. The nutritional powders may be reconstituted to form a nutritional liquid, all of which comprise one or more of fat, protein and carbohydrate and are suitable for oral consumption by a human. 
     The term “nutritional liquid” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to nutritional products in ready-to-drink liquid form, concentrated form, and nutritional liquids made by reconstituting the nutritional powders described herein prior to use. 
     The term “infant” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to a child 12 months or younger. The term “toddler” as used herein, refers to a child from 6 months to three years of age. The term “child” as used herein, refers to a user from birth up to 13 years of age. The term “preterm infant” as used herein, refers to an infant born prior to 36 weeks of gestation. 
     All percentages, parts and ratios as used herein, are by weight of the total composition, unless otherwise specified. All such weights, as they pertain to listed ingredients, are based on the active level and, therefore, do not include solvents or by-products that may be included in commercially available materials, unless otherwise specified. 
     All references to singular characteristics or limitations of the present disclosure shall include the corresponding plural characteristic or limitation, and vice versa, unless otherwise specified or clearly implied to the contrary by the context in which the reference is made. 
     All combinations of method or process steps as used herein can be performed in any order, unless otherwise specified or clearly implied to the contrary by the context in which the referenced combination is made. 
     The various embodiments of the nutritional products of the present disclosure may also be substantially free of any optional or selected essential ingredient or feature described herein, provided that the remaining nutritional product still contains all of the required ingredients or features as described herein. In this context, and unless otherwise specified, the term “substantially free” means that the selected nutritional product contains less than a functional amount of the optional ingredient, typically less than about 1%, including less than about 0.5%, including less than about 0.1%, and also including zero percent, by weight of such optional or selected essential ingredient. 
     The nutritional products may comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of the essential elements of the products as described herein, as well as any additional or optional element described herein or otherwise useful in nutritional product applications.

     Specifically, the nutritional composition may be human milk fortifiers for preterm infants intolerant to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, human milk fortifiers for infants allergic to cow milk proteins or soy proteins, preterm infant formulas for preterm infants intolerant to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, or preterm infant formulas for preterm infants allergic to cow milk proteins or soy proteins, infant formulas for infants intolerant to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, infant formulas for infants allergic to cow milk proteins or soy proteins, hypoallergenic formulas for infants with food allergies generally, follow-on infant formulas for infants intolerant to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, follow-on infant formulas for infants allergic to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, toddler formulas for infants greater than six months of age who are intolerant to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, toddler formulas for infants greater than six months of age who are allergic to formulas based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, nutritional drinks for children and adults who are intolerant to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, nutritional drinks for children and adults who are allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, nutritional drinks for geriatric patients who are intolerant to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, nutritional drinks for geriatric patients who are allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, sports nutritional drinks for people who are intolerant to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, sports nutritional drinks for people who are allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins or soy proteins, sports nutritional drinks using hydrolyzed proteins with improved organoleptic properties, nutritional bars using hydrolyzed proteins with improved organoleptic properties, semi-elemental formulas for the nutritional needs of patients with malabsorption, maldigestion, and other gastrointestinal conditions, and formulas, bars, liquid or powdered protein supplements, or other food forms based on hydrolyzed proteins designed for patients who require hydrolyzed protein to manage their diets. 
     The nutritional compositions of the present disclosure, when formulated as a dietary product form, may potentially provide either a sole source or a supplemental source of nutrition to an individual. In this context, a sole source of nutrition is one that can be administered once or multiple times each day to potentially provide an individual with all or substantially all their fat, protein, carbohydrate, mineral, and vitamin needs per day or during the intended period of administration. A supplemental source of nutrition is defined herein as a dietary source that does not provide an individual with a potentially sole source of nutrition. 
     Liquid Beverages 
     Liquid beverages include concentrated and ready-to-feed liquids. Non-limiting examples of liquid product forms suitable for use herein include liquid infant formulas (including both ready-to-feed formulations and concentrated formulations), liquid toddler formulas (including both ready-to-feed formulations and concentrated formulations), liquid human milk fortifiers (including both ready-to-feed and concentrated formulations), snack and meal replacement products, hot or cold beverages, carbonated or non carbonated beverages, juices or other acidified beverages, shakes, coffees, teas, enteral feeding compositions, and so forth. These liquid compositions are most typically formulated as suspensions or emulsions, but can also be formulated in any other suitable form such as clear liquid solutions, liquid gels, and so forth. 
     The nutritional liquid beverages of the present disclosure may be used as nutritional drinks for pre-term infants, infants, toddlers, children, and adults, including geriatric patients, who are intolerant or allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins and/or soy proteins. The liquid beverages may also be used as semi-elemental formulas for the nutritional needs of patients with malabsorption, maldigestion, and other gastrointestinal conditions. 
     A. Nutritional Emulsions 
     Nutritional emulsions comprise pea protein hydrolysate as the primary or sole source of protein and are aqueous emulsions further comprising fats and carbohydrates. These emulsions are flowable or drinkable liquids at from about 1° C. to about 25° C. and are typically in the form of oil-in-water, water-in-oil, or complex aqueous emulsions, although such emulsions are most typically in the form of oil-in-water emulsions having a continuous aqueous phase and a discontinuous oil phase. 
     The nutritional emulsions may be and typically are shelf stable. The nutritional emulsions typically contain up to about 95% by weight of water, including from about 50% to about 95%, also including from about 60% to about 90%, and also including from about 70% to about 85%, of water by weight of the nutritional emulsions. 
     The nutritional emulsions may be formulated with sufficient kinds and amounts of nutrients so as to provide a sole, primary, or supplemental source of nutrition, or to provide a specialized nutritional emulsion for use in individuals afflicted with specific diseases or conditions. For example, nutritional emulsions can be produced for use as infant, follow-on infant and toddler formulas, adult formulas and the like for users who are intolerant or allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins and/or soy proteins. In another embodiment, the emulsions can be used as a hypoallergenic nutritional emulsion by individuals that have general food allergies. These nutritional emulsions may thus have a variety of product densities, but most typically have a density greater than about 1.03 g/ml, including greater than about 1.04 g/ml, including greater than about 1.055 g/ml, including from about 1.06 g/ml to about 1.12 g/ml, and also including from about 1.085 g/ml to about 1.10 g/ml. 
     The nutritional emulsions may have a caloric density tailored to the nutritional needs of the ultimate user, although in most instances the emulsions comprise from about 100 to about 500 kcal/240 ml, including from about 150 to about 350 kcal/240 ml, and also including from about 200 to about 320 kcal/240 ml. 
     In an alternative embodiment, the nutritional emulsion is a low-calorie nutritional emulsion and has a caloric density of about 6.5 kcal/fl oz (52.8 kcal/240 ml). In another embodiment, the nutritional emulsion has a caloric density of about 7.1 kcal/fl oz (57.6 kcal/240 ml). In one embodiment, the nutritional emulsion has a caloric density of about 7.7 kcal/fl oz (62.4 kcal/ml). 
     The nutritional emulsion may have a pH ranging from about 3.5 to about 8, but are most advantageously in a range of from about 4.5 to about 7.5, including from about 5.5 to about 7.3, including from about 6.2 to about 7.2. 
     Although the serving size for the nutritional emulsion can vary depending upon a number of variables, a typical serving size ranges from about 100 to about 300 ml, including from about 150 to about 250 ml, and including from about 190 ml to about 240 ml. 
     In one embodiment, the nutritional emulsion can be used as a human milk fortifier. In such embodiments, a typical single serving size includes about 5.0 ml. 
     B. Substantially Clear Liquid Beverages 
     The substantially clear nutritional liquids of the present disclosure are thin liquids comprising at least protein, at least a portion of the proteins being pea protein hydrolysate, and carbohydrate as discussed below. The substantially clear nutritional liquids are substantially fat free; that is, the liquids are devoid of added fat except for that fat inherent to the raw materials or added fat at low concentrations to aid in the manufacture of the liquid. In this context, the term “fat free” means that the liquid typically contains less than 1.0%, more typically less than 0.5%, and more typically less than 0.1%, including zero percent, fat by weight of the nutritional liquid. These substantially clear nutritional liquids are flowable or drinkable liquids at from about 1° C. to about 25° C. 
     The substantially clear nutritional liquids may be and typically are shelf-stable. The liquids typically contain up to about 95% by weight of water, including from about 50% to about 95%, also including from about 60% to about 90%, and also including from about 70% to about 85%, of water by weight of the substantially clear nutritional liquid. 
     The substantially clear nutritional liquids may be formulated with sufficient kinds and amounts of nutrients so as to provide a supplemental source of nutrition, or to provide a specialized nutritional liquid for use in individuals afflicted with specific diseases or conditions. For example, in one embodiment, the substantially clear nutritional liquid is a sports drink for use by users who are intolerant or allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk protein and/or soy proteins. In another embodiment, the substantially clear nutritional liquid is a sports drink including hydrolyzed protein with improved organoleptic properties. These substantially clear nutritional liquids may thus have a variety of product densities, but most typically have a density greater than about 1.040 g/ml, including from 1.06 g/ml to 1.12 g/ml, and also including from about 1.085 g/ml to about 1.10 g/ml. 
     The substantially clear nutritional liquids may have a caloric density tailored to the nutritional needs of the ultimate user, although in most instances the liquids comprise from about 90 to about 500 kcal/240 ml, including from about 150 to about 350 kcal/240 ml, including from about 180 to about 350 kcal/240 ml and also including from about 250 to about 320 kcal/240 ml. In other embodiments, the substantially clear nutritional liquids comprise from about 90 to about 500 kcal/480 ml, including from about 150 to about 350 kcal/480 ml, and also including from about 250 to about 320 kcal/480 ml. 
     The substantially clear nutritional liquids have a pH ranging from about 2.8 to about 4.6, including from about 2.9 to about 4.2, and also including from about 3.1 to about 3.9. 
     Although the serving size for the substantially clear nutritional liquid can vary depending upon a number of variables, a typical serving size ranges from about 100 to about 591 ml, including from about 150 to about 250 ml, including from about 190 ml to about 240 ml. Some specific serving sizes for the substantially clear nutritional liquid include 240 ml (8.1 ounce), 296 ml (10 ounce) and 480 ml (16 ounce). 
     Nutritional Powders 
     The nutritional powders comprise pea protein hydrolysates as a primary or sole source of protein and are typically in the form of flowable or substantially flowable particulate compositions, or at least particulate compositions. Particularly suitable product forms include spray dried, agglomerated or dryblended powder compositions. The compositions can easily be scooped and measured with a spoon or similar other device, wherein the compositions can easily be reconstituted by the intended user with a suitable aqueous liquid, typically water, to form a nutritional formulation for immediate oral or enteral use. In this context, “immediate” use generally means within about 48 hours, most typically within about 24 hours, preferably right after reconstitution. 
     The nutritional powders may be formulated with sufficient kinds and amounts of nutrients so as to provide a sole, primary, or supplemental source of nutrition, or to provide a specialized nutritional powder for use in individuals afflicted with specific diseases or conditions. In one specific embodiment, the nutritional powder may be formulated for use with individuals who are intolerant or allergic to nutritionals based on cow milk proteins and/or soy proteins. In another embodiment, the emulsions can be used as hypoallergenic nutritional emulsions by individuals that have general food allergies. 
     The nutritional powders may be reconstituted with water prior to use to a caloric density tailored to the nutritional needs of the ultimate user, although in most instances the powders are reconstituted with water to form compositions comprising from about 100 to about 500 kcal/240 ml, including from about 150 to about 350 kcal/240 ml, and also including from about 200 to about 320 kcal/240 ml. 
     In an alternative embodiment, the nutritional powder may be reconstituted with water to form a low-calorie composition having a caloric density of about 52.8 kcal/240 ml. In another embodiment, the nutritional powder has a caloric density of about 57.6 kcal/240 ml. In one embodiment, the nutritional powder has a caloric density of about 62.4 kcal/240 ml. 
     Although the serving size for the reconstituted nutritional liquid can vary depending upon a number of variables, a typical serving size ranges from about 100 to about 300 ml, including from about 150 to about 250 ml, including from about 190 ml to about 240 ml. 
     In one specific embodiment, the reconstituted nutritional liquid can be used as a human milk fortifier. In such embodiments, a typical single serving size includes about 0.9 grams of powder per about 100 to about 300 ml of water. 
     Other Solid Nutritional Products 
     The nutritional products can alternatively be in the form of solid nutritional bars and food products. For example, the nutritional products may be formulated as bars, sticks, or cookies, breads, cakes or other baked goods. 
     In another embodiment, the nutritional compositions of the present disclosure may also be formulated in product forms such as capsules, tablets, pills, caplets, and gels. These product forms generally contain only the essential ingredients as described herein, optionally in combination with other actives, processing aids or other dosage form excipients. 
     Infant Formulas 
     When the nutritional product is an infant formula, the nutritional product may be a liquid or solid nutritional product as described above. The liquid or solid infant formula products of the present disclosure may have any caloric density suitable for the targeted infants, or provide such a density upon reconstitution of a powder embodiment or upon dilution of a liquid concentrate embodiment. For example, most common caloric densities for the infant formula embodiments of the present disclosure are generally at least about 19 kcal/fl oz (660 kcal/liter), more typically from about 20 kcal/fl oz (675-680 kcal/liter) to about 25 kcal/fl oz (820 kcal/liter), even more typically from about 20 kcal/fl oz (675-680 kcal/liter) to about 24 kcal/fl oz (800-810 kcal/liter). Generally, the 22-24 kcal/fl oz formulas are more commonly used in preterm or low birth weight infants, and the 20-21 kcal/fl oz (675-680 to 700 kcal/liter) formulas are more often used in term infants. 
     In an alternative embodiment, the infant formula is a low-calorie infant formula and has a caloric density of about 6.5 kcal/fl oz (220 kcal/liter). In another embodiment, the infant formula has a caloric density of about 7.1 kcal/fl oz (240 kcal/liter). In one embodiment, the infant formula has a caloric density of about 7.7 kcal/fl oz (260 kcal/liter). 
     Although total concentrations or amounts of the fat, protein, and carbohydrates may vary depending upon the product form (i.e., powder, ready-to-feed liquid, or concentrated liquid) and targeted dietary needs of the intended user, such concentrations or amounts most typically fall within one of the following embodied ranges, inclusive of any other essential fat, protein, and or carbohydrate ingredients as described herein. 
     For the liquid infant formula products, carbohydrate concentrations most typically range from about 5% to about 40%, including from about 7% to about 30%, including from about 10% to about 25%, by weight of the nutritional product; fat concentrations most typically range from about 1% to about 30%, including from about 2% to about 15%, and also including from about 4% to about 10%, by weight of the nutritional product; and protein concentrations most typically range from about 0.5% to about 30%, including from about 1% to about 15%, and also including from about 2% to about 10%, by weight of the nutritional product.

     Pea Protein Hydrolysate 
     The nutritional products comprise pea protein hydrolysate as a primary or sole source of protein. In nutritional embodiments where a hypoallergenic composition is desired (such as a hypoallergenic infant formula), the nutritional composition will include 100% pea protein hydrolysate, by weight of the protein component. The pea protein hydrolysates used in the products of the present disclosure have been found to show lowered immunological reactivity and improved flavor and organoleptic properties as compared to other vegetable protein hydrolysates, such as soy proteins, as well as cow milk proteins. For example, as shown in  FIG. 1 , the pea protein hydrolysates for use in the nutritional products of the present disclosure have reduced levels of phytoestrogen (i.e., genistein and daidzein, which are isoflavones), aluminum, manganese, and phytates, thus improving the nutrient profile of the end nutritional product. Additionally, as described herein, the pea protein hydrolysate has a reduced antigen content and/or a reduced immunological reactivity. Thus, the pea protein hydrolysates provide a good source of protein for nutritional products that are designed for individuals who are intolerant and/or allergic to cow milk proteins and/or soy proteins, as well as to meet the nutritional needs of individuals with malabsorption, maldigestion, and other gastrointestinal conditions. These nutritional products further have improved flavor and emulsion stability. 
     The pea protein hydrolysates may be the sole source of protein in the nutritional products of the present disclosure. Alternatively, additional protein sources, as described below, may be used in the products in combination with the pea protein hydrolysates to provide the total protein. Accordingly, the pea protein hydrolysate provides at least 50% of the total protein in the nutritional product, including from about 50% to about 100% of the total protein, including from about 60% to about 95% of the total protein, including from about 70% to about 90% of the total protein, and also including from about 75% to about 85% of the total protein in the nutritional product. As noted herein, the additional protein sources may include partially hydrolyzed, hydrolyzed, and/or unhydrolyzed (intact) proteins. 
     Particularly, it has been surprisingly found that by controlling the hydrolysis of a pea protein source, such as pea protein isolate or pea protein concentrate, to a particular degree, pea protein hydrolysates can be produced with lowered antigen content, and thus lowered immunological reactivity, without adversely affecting the flavor attributes of the hydrolysate. The pea protein hydrolysates described herein are superior to previously known soy proteins as they have: (1) non-detectable levels of isoflavones; (2) decreased phytate, manganese, and aluminum concentrations; (3) improved organoleptic and flavor profiles; and (4) are not genetically modified. 
     Generally, pea protein hydrolysates for use in the nutritional products of the present disclosure are produced by: (1) mixing a pea protein product having at least 65% protein (by weight dry matter) and water to form a slurry with a protein content of up to about 20%, preferably up to about 12%; (2) hydrolyzing the slurry; and (3) filtering the hydrolyzed slurry to obtain the protein hydrolysate. 
     The pea protein product used as raw material in step (1) can be any pea protein product, provided that the protein content thereof is at least 65% by weight dry matter, i.e. pea protein concentrates (with a protein content of above 70% by weight dry matter), or pea protein isolates (with a protein content of above 90% by weight dry matter). Commercially available pea protein concentrates and isolates are well known in the art. 
     The pea protein product is mixed with water to form a slurry with a protein content of up to about 20%, preferably up to about 12%. In one or more embodiments, the slurry may be heated prior to hydrolysis to further denaturing. For example, in one embodiment, the method further includes heating the slurry to a temperature above 60° C. prior to hydrolysis. More suitably, the slurry can be heated to a temperature of from about 70° C. to about 90° C. for a period of from about 2 minutes to about 20 minutes prior to hydrolysis. In this manner, the protein is effectively denatured, and thus, the subsequent hydrolysis will generally proceed more rapidly. Further, by heating the slurry, the microbial stability during the hydrolysis, which can last for several hours, is secured effectively. 
     Once formed, and optionally heated, the temperature of the slurry is preferably adjusted and maintained at from about 40° C. to about 70° C., including from about 50° C. to about 60° C., prior to and during the hydrolysis reaction in accordance with methods known in the art. Of course, other heating steps and/or temperatures can be utilized as are known in the art. 
     Hydrolysis of the protein-containing slurry can be conducted enzymatically or non-enzymatically. In one embodiment, the protein-containing slurry is hydrolyzed to have an adjusted degree of hydrolysis of between about 7.0% and less than 19.0%, including between about 8.0% and about 16.0%, including between about 8.0% and about 13.5%, also including between about 12.0% and about 14.00%, and also including about 14.0% and a molecular weight distribution and antigen content as set forth below. Such hydrolysis, in one embodiment, may be conducted proteolytically as is known in the art. 
     In another embodiment, the hydrolysis is carried out with one or more unspecific acting endo- and/or exo-peptidase enzymes. Suitable unspecific acting endo- and/or exo-peptidase enzymes include, for example, enzymes derived from a strain of  Aspergillus , in particular a strain of  Aspergillus niger , a strain of  Aspergillus oryzae , or a strain of  Aspergillus soyae , or a strain of  Bacillus , in particular a strain of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens , a strain of  Bacillus lentus , a strain of  Bacillus licheniformis  or a strain of  Bacillus subtilis.    
     Additional suitable endopeptidase enzymes for use in hydrolysis step (2) include, for example: (i) a glutamyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.19); (ii) a lysyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.50); (iii) a leucyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.57); (iv) a glycyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.22.25); (v) a prolyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.26); (vi) trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) or a trypsin-like (lysine/arginine specific) endopeptidase; or (vii) a peptidyl-Asp metalloendopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.33). Additional suitable exopeptidase enzymes include, for example, a carboxypeptidase, such as: (i) a proline carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.16.2); (ii) a carboxypeptidase A (EC 3.4.17.1); (iii) a carboxypeptidase B (EC 3.4.17.2); (iv) a carboxypeptidase C (EC 3.4.16.5); (v) a carboxypeptidase D (EC 3.4.16.6); (vi) a lysine(arginine) carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.17.3); (vii) a glycine carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.17.4); (viii) an alanine carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.17.6); (ix) a glutamate carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.17.11); (x) a peptidyl-dipeptidase A (EC 3.4.1 5.1); or (xi) a peptidyl-dipeptidase (EC 3.4.15.5). 
     The exact amount of enzyme added to the slurry to obtain the desired characteristics of the pea protein hydrolysates will vary depending upon features such as: (1) the enzyme or enzyme system utilized; (2) the desired end degree of hydrolysis; and/or (3) the desired end molecular weight distribution. Because these are known parameters, one of ordinary skill in the art can easily determine the appropriate conditions to achieve the desired characteristics of the end pea protein hydrolysate. Typically, the enzyme or enzyme system is added to the slurry in amounts in the range of from about 10 mg to about 5000 g, including 35 mg to about 700 g per 35 kg of protein in the slurry. 
     The hydrolysis reaction will typically run for a desired length of time in order to obtain the desired degree of hydrolysis and/or the desired molecular weight profile. Typically, the hydrolysis reaction will continue for a period of from about 15 minutes to about 24 hours, including from about 30 minutes to about 240 minutes, and also including from about 45 minutes to about 120 minutes. Again, the exact amount of time required for the hydrolysis reaction will depend on specific features as noted above, but can be easily determined by one skilled in the art. 
     In other embodiments, the protein-containing slurry may be hydrolyzed using non-enzymatic means, such as by chemical and/or mechanical (physical) hydrolysis. Such technique was one also well known in the art. 
     Once the pea protein material has been hydrolyzed to the desired degree, the hydrolysis reaction is stopped, for example, by inactivating the enzyme or enzyme system, or by other conventional means. In one embodiment, the inactivation of the enzyme or enzyme system is carried out by heat treatment. This inactivation is especially well suited in cases where the pH of the final pea protein hydrolysate is to be relatively high. 
     In accordance with established practice, the enzyme preparation may suitably be inactivated by increasing the temperature of the incubation slurry to a temperature where the enzymes become inactivated, e.g. to above about 70° C., and suitably to a temperature of about 90° C. 
     Alternatively, the enzyme(s) can be inactivated by a suitable acid treatment. This inactivation is especially well suited in cases wherein the pH of the final pea protein hydrolysate is to be relatively low. For example, the enzyme(s) can be inactivated by decreasing the pH of the slurry to a value where the enzymes become inactivated, e.g. below about 4.0. 
     Optionally, after the hydrolysis reaction has been quenched, the method of preparation may further comprise treating the slurry with activated carbon for a suitable time period at a temperature of between about 50° C. and about 70° C., for example, in an amount generally corresponding to between about 1 and about 5% carbon, calculated in relation to dry matter content. This optional carbon step may improve the color of the final pea protein hydrolysate and also further reduce the off-flavor of the pea protein hydrolysate. 
     Finally, the hydrolyzed slurry is filtered utilizing a suitable conventional filtering process to obtain the pea protein hydrolysate. For example, in one embodiment, a filtration is carried out by nanofiltration at a temperature between 50° C. and 70° C. and/or by evaporation, whereafter the retentate is collected as the pea protein hydrolysate solution. By means of the nanofiltration, a desalination can be carried out by proper selection of the membrane. Evaporation has the advantage of obtaining a high dry matter content in the concentrate before drying. 
     In one specific embodiment, the pea protein hydrolysate, once obtained by the filtration process outlined above, is subjected to a second filtration process, such an ultrafiltration process, to provide a molecular weight distribution suitable for use in semi-elemental and related nutritional products. The ultrafiltration unit can be a hollow-fiber membrane, such as for example, the commercially available unit under the trademark Diaflo® from the Amicon Corporation and/or under the trademark Romicon® from the Romicon Corporation, having the desired nominal cut-off molecular weight values. The hollow-fiber membranes are packed within a filter cartridge to permit flow therethrough, whereby suitably small molecules pass through the membrane, the hydrolysate effluent rate being dependent upon the pressure drop across the membrane, and are taken in solution to a collecting zone, with the remainder of the solution, containing the higher molecular weight protein hydrolysate passing directly along the fibrous tubes, for recycle to the hydrolysis reactor or to a separate collecting zone, as desired. 
     Further, this optional second filtration step can reduce the resulting phytate levels in the pea protein hydrolysate. Particularly, the phytate content is reduced in the pea protein hydrolysates by at least about 10%, including at least about 15%, including at least about 20%, including at least about 25%, including at least about 30%, including at least about 35%, including at least about 40%, and including at least about 45% or more. 
     Pea protein hydrolysates for use in the nutritional products described herein are prepared using the above described methods and have the following characteristics. Exemplary pea protein hydrolysates made according to the above methods include those having a molecular weight distribution of less than 5% being greater than 5 kD. 
     The pea protein hydrolysates produced according to the above-described methods additionally have reduced immunological reactivity. In one embodiment, the immunological reactivity of the pea protein hydrolysate is analyzed using inhibition ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and is expressed as an amount of immunologically active antigen per amount of protein. For example, one gram of pea protein hydrolysate prepared accordingly to the methods described herein will typically include less than about 15,000 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 10,000 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 7,500 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 5,000 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 2,500 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 500 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 250 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 100 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, including less than about 50 μg of immunologically active pea antigen, and including the pea protein hydrolysate being substantially free of immunologically active pea antigen. 
     The pea protein hydrolysate produced by the methods described above additionally have an immune response index of less than 2.5 log IRI units, including less than 2.4 log IRI units, including less than 2.3 log IRI units, including less than 2.2 log IRI units, including less than 2.1 log IRI units, and also including less than 2.0 log IRI units. 
     Protein 
     The nutritional products of the present disclosure may optionally further comprise an additional source or sources of protein in addition to the pea protein hydrolysate. Any additional protein source that is suitable for use in oral nutritional products and is compatible with the essential elements and features of such products is suitable for use in combination with the pea protein hydrolysates. 
     When used in a liquid beverage, the total protein concentration in the nutritional liquid beverage may range from about 0.5% to about 40%, including from about 0.5% to about 30%, including from about 1% to about 15%, and also including from about 1% to about 10%, and also including from about 1% to about 7%, by weight of the nutritional liquid beverages. In one specific embodiment, the protein is present in a nutritional emulsion in an amount of about 6.0% by weight of the nutritional emulsion. 
     When used in solid nutritional products, such as nutritional powders, bars, and other food products, the total protein concentration in the solid nutritional products may range from about 1.0% to about 50%, including from about 10% to about 50%, and also including from about 10% to about 30%, by weight of the solid nutritional product. In one specific embodiment, the protein is present in a spray dried nutritional powder in an amount of about 19%, by weight of the spray dried nutritional powder. 
     Non-limiting examples of additional suitable protein or sources thereof for use in the nutritional products include hydrolyzed, partially hydrolyzed or non-hydrolyzed proteins or protein sources, which may be derived from any known or otherwise suitable source such as milk (e.g., casein, whey), animal (e.g., meat, fish), cereal (e.g., rice, corn), vegetable (e.g., soy) or combinations thereof. Non-limiting examples of such proteins include milk protein isolates, milk protein concentrates as described herein, casein protein isolates, whey protein, sodium or calcium caseinates, whole cow milk, partially or completely defatted milk, soy protein isolates, soy protein concentrates, and so forth.

     Methods of Manufacture 
     The nutritional products of the present disclosure may be prepared by any known or otherwise effective manufacturing technique for preparing the selected product solid or liquid form. Many such techniques are known for any given product form such as nutritional liquids or powders or nutritional bars and can easily be applied by one of ordinary skill in the art to the nutritional compositions described herein. 
     The nutritional products of the present disclosure can therefore be prepared by any of a variety of known or otherwise effective formulation or manufacturing methods. In one suitable manufacturing process, for example, at least three separate slurries are prepared, including a protein-in-fat (PIF) slurry, a carbohydrate-mineral (CHO-MN) slurry, a protein-in-water (PIW) slurry. The PIF slurry is formed by heating and mixing the oil (e.g., canola oil, corn oil, etc.) and then adding an emulsifier (e.g., lecithin), fat soluble vitamins, and a portion of the total protein (e.g., milk protein concentrate, etc.) with continued heat and agitation. The CHO-MN slurry is formed by adding with heated agitation to water: minerals (e.g., potassium citrate, dipotassium phosphate, sodium citrate, etc.), trace and ultra trace minerals (TM/UTM premix), thickening or suspending agents (e.g. avicel, gellan, carrageenan). The resulting CHO-MIN slurry is held for 10 minutes with continued heat and agitation before adding additional minerals (e.g., potassium chloride, magnesium carbonate, potassium iodide, etc.), and/or carbohydrates (e.g., fructooligosaccharide, sucrose, corn syrup, etc.). The PIW slurry is then formed by mixing with heat and agitation the remaining protein, if any. 
     The resulting slurries are then blended together with heated agitation and the pH adjusted to 6.6-7.0, after which the composition is subjected to high-temperature short-time (HTST) processing during which the composition is heat treated, emulsified and homogenized, and then allowed to cool. Water soluble vitamins and ascorbic acid are added, the pH is adjusted to the desired range if necessary, flavors are added, and water is added to achieve the desired total solid level. The composition is then aseptically packaged to form an aseptically packaged nutritional emulsion. This emulsion can then be further diluted, heat-treated, and packaged to form a ready-to-feed or concentrated liquid, or it can be heat-treated and subsequently processed and packaged as a reconstitutable powder, e.g., spray dried, dry mixed, agglomerated. 
     When a substantially clear liquid beverage is desired, the above described manufacturing process is modified such that only a CHO-MN slurry and a PIW slurry are blended to form the nutritional liquid beverage. 
     Other product forms such as nutritional bars may be manufactured, for example, using cold extrusion technology as is known and commonly described in the bar manufacturing art. To prepare such products, typically all of the powdered components are dry blended together, which typically includes any proteins, vitamin premixes, certain carbohydrates, and so forth. The fat-soluble components are then blended together and mixed with any powdered premixes. Finally any liquid components are then mixed into the composition, forming a plastic like composition or dough. The resulting plastic mass can then be shaped, without further physical or chemical changes occurring, by cold forming or extrusion, wherein the plastic mass is forced at relatively low pressure through a die, which confers the desired shape. The resultant exudate is then cut off at an appropriate position to give products of the desired weight. If desired, the solid product is then coated, to enhance palatability, and packaged for distribution. 
     Other suitable methods for making nutritional products are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 6,365,218 (Borschel, et al.), U.S. Pat. No. 6,589,576 (Borschel, et al.), U.S. Pat. No. 6,306,908 (Carlson, et al.), U.S. Patent Application 20030118703 A1 (Nguyen, et al.), which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference to the extent that they are consistent herewith. 
     Methods of Use 
     The nutritional products including pea protein hydrolysates as the sole source of protein are useful as a hypoallergenic nutrition source and/or a semi-elemental nutrition source for preterm infants, infants, toddlers, children, adults, and geriatrics that are intolerant and/or allergic to cow milk proteins, soy proteins, and/or have other general food allergies. Additionally, the nutritional products may be particularly suitable for use by individuals having malabsorption, maldigestion, and other gastrointestinal conditions. 
     In one embodiment, the nutritional products may be useful as providing a nutrition source using hydrolyzed proteins and having improved organoleptic properties, such as in sports drinks. 
     The nutritional products may be administered orally as needed to provide the desired level of nutrition, most typically in the form of one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or more servings daily. Serving sizes may vary greatly and may range from about 1 to about 500 ml, including from about 5 to about 250 ml, including from about 10 to about 240 ml.

     Example 1 
     In this Example, 10 samples of filtered (F) and non-filtered (N) pea protein hydrolysates prepared according to process as described herein are evaluated and compared to an intact pea protein isolate (ISO) sample for various physical characteristics. Filtered (F) indicates that the sample is subjected to the second filtration step described above. All samples are subjected to the first filtration step described above. The control sample (Intact) is not subjected to any hydrolysis procedure. Specifically, the samples are evaluated for degree of hydrolysis, molecular weight distribution, isoflavone content, and phytate content using standard analytical techniques. The results of the evaluations are shown in the table below.

     Example 2 
     In this Example, the hypoallergenic potential of the pea protein hydrolysates analyzed in Example 1 are evaluated and compared to the intact pea protein isolate (ISO) sample of Example 1 using hyperimmunization of rabbits, in which rabbits are given multiple immunizations over a period of 35 days as described below. Immunogenicity of the pea protein hydrolysates is then tested by ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), which measures the rabbits&#39; antigen-specific IgG response to the intact pea protein/pea protein hydrolysate immunogen. 
     The rabbits used in this Example are placed on a diet free of cow milk, soy, and pea proteins for fourteen days prior to the first immunization. At day 0, baseline antibody status of each of the rabbits is evaluated by blood sample from the rabbits. After obtaining baseline, each rabbit is immunized with 5.0 mg of pea protein equivalent amino acid content contained in 4.5 ml of antigen emulsified in Complete Freund&#39;s Adjuvant (CFA). The immunizations are delivered as follows: 20×0.1 ml per site/shaved flank intradermally, and 0.25 ml/popliteal lymph node area of the hind leg. On day 21, the second immunization is as follows: 0.50 ml/site×2 sites/hind leg, intramuscularly; and, 0.25 ml/site×4 sites subscapularly. For each immunization, a constant dose of 5 mg antigen amino acid equivalent is administered. Exsanguination of the rabbits is on study day 35. 
     A direct ELISA is used to quantitate antibody responses for each rabbit following hyperimmunization. Assay optimization is achieved using block titrations to determine antigen coating concentration and conjugate dilution. Following assay optimization, the pea protein-specific rabbit antibodies in the day 0 and day 35 serum samples are quantified. Additionally, an immune response index (IRI units) is determined by dividing the normalized day 35 antibody titer by the normalized baseline (day 0) titer of day 0 for each antiserum. Immunization groups contain 5-10 animals and the results for each animal are averaged. Comparisons of the antigen-specific IRI results predict hypoallergenic clinical performance. The results are provided in the table below:

     As shown in the table, the pea protein hydrolysates show a wide range of antibody response. The low reactivity may indicate that the pea protein hydrolysates still have epitopes that are recognized as antigenic, but not immunogenic by the rabbits. Moreover, pea protein hydrolysates BN, BF, CN, and CF showed a significantly lowered immunogenicity after hyperimmunization as compared to the other samples. The lowered immunogenicity of the pea protein hydrolysate samples indicates that the retained pea antigens do not have the capacity to stimulate an immune response. 
     Example 3 
     In this Example, the hypoallergenic potential of the pea protein hydrolysates analyzed in Example 1 are evaluated and compared to the intact pea protein isolate (ISO) sample of Example 1 using antigen content, measured by inhibition ELISA. In this assay, intact pea protein is coated onto ELISA plates. Separately incubation tubes containing samples or pea protein solutions at standard concentrations plus anti-pea protein antibodies are prepared. After an incubation period aliquots of the sample (or standard) plus antibody solutions are added to the coated plates. Following incubation and washing an anti-rabbit IgG enzyme-conjugated antibody is added. The plates are incubated, washed, and an enzyme substrate is added. A color reaction occurs that is inversely proportional to the concentration of pea antigen in the sample which is quantified based on a standard curve. Results of this test for the 10 samples are shown in table below:

     Example 4 
     In this Example, sensory evaluation is conducted for two bench screening sessions to characterize the taste of the pea protein hydrolysate samples of Example 1 retorted in both water and an Alimentum® matrix (Abbott Laboratories, Columbus, Ohio). The Alimentum® matrix contains carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, and minerals so as to simulate the biochemistry of a hypoallergenic formula. It is used to assess the mutual organoleptic effects on hydrolysate and finished formula on each other within the product matrix following retort treatment. The samples are compared to the current hydrolysate (casein hydrolysate) used in Alimentum® and the intact pea protein isolate (ISO) of Example 1. Particularly, it is known that hydrolyzed proteins are generally bitter, sour, salty, and/or beany. Thus, it is difficult to incorporate this functional ingredient into nutritional formulations without drastically impairing the taste of the product. 
     The samples are analyzed for intensity of various tastes, including for example: bitter, salt, sour, brothy, wet wool, acid sour, grassy/soybean, starchy, woody/sawdust, green/beany/dried peas, drying, powdery, oily, sulfidy/cabbage, burnt cheese, and gritty. Specifically, once the samples are prepared, four trained descriptive flavor panelists tasted each sample. After tasting, each panelist assessed the flavor attributes of the sample using a scoring system set forth in the table below and the results are then averaged.

     In these Examples, a gelled human milk fortifier is prepared in accordance with the present disclosure. The ingredients for the gelled human milk fortifier are shown in the following table. 
     The gelled human milk fortifier is prepared by solubilizing and combining ingredients into a homogeneous aqueous mixture which is subjected to an adequate heat treatment to achieve long term shelf stability. 
     To begin the manufacturing process, the ingredients that supply the macronutrients (carbohydrate, protein, fat and minerals) are combined in multiple slurries together and with water. This blend is subjected to an initial heat treatment and then tested to verify proper nutrient levels.
