Vegetarian Protein Sources
According to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc., the protein powder market is expected to exceed USD 30.5 billion by 2027. This growth is primarily fuelled by rising demand from fitness enthusiasts and health-conscious consumers looking to improve their overall health and wellness. Given these health trends, it's no surprise that vegetarian protein sources abound. Within the protein powder segment, plant-based formulas have had one of the most significant increases in sales, thanks to a record number of consumers opting for vegetarian and vegan options. In fact, statistics from the Good Food Institute tell us that the sales of plant-based foods grew three times faster than overall food sales in 2021.
Plant-based protein, as opposed to protein from animal sources, plant protein foods are often incomplete – i.e. it does not contain all of the essential amino acids. This is why plant-based protein powders usually feature a blend of proteins from different sources, such as cereals, grains, and seeds, notably brown rice, quinoa, hemp seed, yellow pea, pumpkin, flaxseed, mung bean, etc. In combination, plant-based proteins supply all of the essential amino’s including the three crucial Branched-Chain amino acids: L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine to promote muscle growth, decrease muscle soreness, reduce exercise fatigue, and prevent muscle wasting.
Benefits of Vegetarian Protein Sources
- Accelerate Muscle Recovery
- Aids Fat/Weight Loss
- Help Improve Body Composition
- Promote Muscle Protein Synthesis
- Source of Complete Vegan Protein
Why Choose Vegetarian Protein Sources?
The great thing about plant-based protein powder is that it's suited to just about everybody. Vegans and vegetarians are the most obvious candidates for plant-based protein powders, as is anyone looking to include more plant-based foods into their diet. On the other hand, animal-based whey protein is known to cause digestive issues in specific individuals, potentially resulting in food allergies.
Final Thoughts
When shopping for a high-quality vegetarian protein powder blend, look for one that provides a solid dose of complete protein and is certified organic, Non-GMO, and Gluten Free. It should also be naturally sweetened and not contain added sugar, artificial flavours, colours, or sweeteners.
Many plant-based protein blends have added greens, superfood concentrates, medicinal mushrooms, adaptogenic herbs, fibre, probiotics, and more. Pay attention to the label to select a product that meets your unique health goals and needs.
