Overview:
Proteins refer to amino acid polymers that are joined together by peptide bonds. Proteins are considered the building blocks of the body and also function as an efficient source of fuel. Proteins are continuously produced and degraded in living bodies via metabolic processes required for energy storage and recovery. Proteins play a crucial role in living organisms by contributing to all the processes within cells. Animal proteins refer to the proteins derived from animal sources such as meat, milk, and eggs. Animal proteins cater to several requirements in various applications, such as animal husbandry, food and beverages, healthcare, and personal care. Animal proteins consist of balanced amounts of amino acids and are therefore considered complete proteins. Although animal proteins have a higher fat content, consuming more of them can increase the risk of heart disease. Animal proteins account for more than 70% of the overall protein ingredients market. The growth of the global animal protein ingredients market particularly depends on the fluctuations in the price of processing methods coupled with the changing dynamics of end-use industries. Owing to the rising attention towards bodybuilding and health, the number of health clubs and gyms is increasing across the globe. Animal protein ingredients are largely consumed in wellness foods as pre- and post-workout supplements. Furthermore, animal proteins are used in pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and a variety of cosmetic products.

Rising demand for healthy food and processed food products is augmenting the growth of the global animal protein ingredients market since proteins deliver all the essential amino acids. Increasing applications of animal protein ingredients, especially in food and beverage, nutraceuticals, and dietary supplements, are anticipated to bolster market growth in the foreseeable future. Owing to the rising number of fitness-conscious consumers, an increasing number of gyms and fitness centers, as well as increasing demand for animal protein-based energy drinks and processed food products, are some other major aspects projected to accelerate the growth of the global animal protein ingredients market. Consumers prefer efficient products with high national value and palatable taste; thus, manufacturers are focusing more on research and development of new and more efficient products. Globalization, coupled with increasing per capita disposable incomes, has led to a rapid change in the standard of living and lifestyle of the lower and middle-class population groups. In addition, due to the ever-increasing health concerns across all age groups, consumers are becoming more cognizant of the benefits of animal protein. Moreover, consumers are willing to pay high prices for premium and hygienic food products. However, the void experienced by the food processing industry between supply and demand for food products based on animal proteins, such as confectionery, dairy food, meat, beverages, and clinical food, might hinder the growth of the market. Animal proteins are generally derived from milk, fish, eggs, meat, and gelatin. Milk and eggs possess a considerable amount of protein and are thus preferred by all age groups. With the advancement of extraction procedures, several types of animal protein ingredients extracted from milk and eggs are termed isolates, concentrates, and hydrolysates.
