Protein derived
from plants, such as grains (quinoa, wheat), legumes (beans, lentils), nuts,
seeds, and soy products (tofu, tempeh), is referred to as plant-based protein.
Plant-based proteins are appropriate for vegetarian, vegan, and
health-conscious diets because they don't come from animal sources and usually
have less saturated fat. They offer vital amino acids required for general
health and muscle regeneration. In addition to being high in fibre, vitamins,
and minerals, plant-based proteins also support a balanced diet. By including
these sources, one can support environmental sustainability and animal welfare
concerns while diversifying one's nutrient intake.
Growing consumer
awareness of sustainability and ethical food choices, which has led to a rise
in the popularity of vegetarian, vegan, and flexitarian diets, is driving the
demand for plant-based proteins. Plant-based proteins are in greater demand due
to health considerations like lowering cholesterol and saturated fat intake.
Thanks to technological breakthroughs, a wider range of people looking for
alternatives to traditional animal proteins can now enjoy meat-like substitutes
made from plants. These elements work together to propel market expansion,
increasing the range and accessibility of plant-based protein products around
the globe.
