What is Wolffia?
One of the Most Complete Foods on Earth
Native to Thailand, Wolffia Globosa is a tiny aquatic plant with exceptional nutritional density. It delivers complete plant protein and unusually high levels of naturally occurring, bioavailable B12 in one clean-label ingredient—along with a spectrum of essential micronutrients. With a mild, neutral flavor and consistent hydroponic quality, it integrates seamlessly into RTDs, smoothie blends, plant-based protein powders, and other next-generation functional foods.
Benefits of Wolffia?
Protein
Wolffia offers a complete amino acid profile and is ~40% protein by dry weight. Its neutral flavor and easy digestibility make it ideal for functional food brands seeking clean, whole-food protein sources.
Vitamin B12
Wolffia delivers naturally high, bioavailable Vitamin B12 — an exceptionally rare trait in plant-based ingredients. Its elevated B12 levels allow formulators to boost nutrition cleanly, without relying on synthetic fortification or animal-derived sources.
Micronutrients
Wolffia delivers naturally occurring micro nutrients and antioxidants in a stable, whole-food format. Its nutrient-dense profile provides a simple way to add broader nutritional value and clean-label appeal to food, drink and supplement formulations.
Iron
Wolffia supplies naturally occurring, plant-based iron in a clean whole-food form. Its balanced mineral profile gives formulators a simple way to support iron content without synthetic fortification or metallic off-notes.
Low Metals
Our Wolffia is cultivated in clean, controlled hydroponic farms, maintaining naturally low metal levels and avoiding the lead concerns increasingly associated with soil-grown plant proteins. Its clean profile gives formulators confidence as heavy-metal scrutiny continues to tighten, especially in California.
Sustainable
Grown hydroponically with exceptional speed—doubling its biomass every few days—our Wolffia uses minimal land and water compared to traditional crops. Its efficient, low-resource production gives formulators a clean, dependable ingredient for sustainable functional food innovation.
