Global Market for Protein Ingredients

Proteins are polymers of amino acids joined together by peptide bonds. Proteins are constantly synthesized and degraded through metabolic processes for energy recovery and storage. From a nutritional perspective, protein ingredients have diverse applications in health and wellness industry such as pre workout fuel, post workout replenishment, and help in protection of muscles. In addition, it is also used in heath supplements, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals and some cosmetic products.
The global protein ingredients market is growing at a rapid pace, predominantly due to the increasing adoption of protein supplements in the light of different advantages they represent such as high calorie intake. Growing application of protein ingredients in nutraceuticals, food and beverage, and wellness industries is expected to fuel the market growth in the coming years. In addition, increasing number of health conscious consumers, growing number of fitness centers and health clubs, and rising demand for energy drinks and processed foods are also expected to boost the global protein ingredients market. According to a report published by International Health, Racquet & Sports Club Association (IHRSA), the number of health and wellness centers has risen from 128,500 to 153,000 in the U.S. in the last four years. However, animal protein ingredients market is now challenged by plant derived proteins due to price differences and quality fluctuations. Furthermore, consumer attitude particularly towards gluten-free protein products is also expected to boost the growth of plant derived protein products market.
