The application of functional proteins has increased in dietary supplements. Growing incidence of health problems increased knowledge of good eating habits, and an increase in fitness and health awareness contributed to the growth of proteins. Consumers are more conscious of their nutritional intake, the advantages of physical activity, and the use of dietary supplements to satisfy the body's nutritional needs, which is boosting the sale of functional proteins.
Rising penetration of gyms and fitness centers and increasing public campaigns encouraging consumers to focus on health and fitness have increased the sale of dietary supplements. Advertising and marketing activities, lucrative monetary benefits, attractive subscription plans offered by market players to increase the sale of weight loss, and weight management supplements further boost the proteins market growth.
The demand for functional proteins has increased during the pandemic owing to increasing health awareness and the growing consumption of functional food and dietary supplements to increase immunity. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted the supply chain across the globe. Lockdowns increased prices, and a limited workforce has severely impacted the proteins market. Countries around the world have regulated the movement of individuals and goods, resulting in decreased deliveries, roadblocks, and other logistic issues. However, the proteins market is expected to grow post the pandemic and attract investments and research initiatives to increase applications of the product.
