Rapeseed cake can be altered to become an alternative protein source, study shows

Rapeseed is very high in protein. The rapeseed cake, which is left over after the oil is extracted, contains a significant amount of the crucial nutrient. However, because of glucosinolate defence compounds that reduce its nutritional value, there are strong barriers, not least legal ones, to its use as an alternative protein source. A new study may change this.
