Protein is an essential Macro nutrient and is made up of building blocks known as amino acids. According to FAO, an adult requires 0.75 g per kg per day as safe level intake of protein. The protein deficiency and malnutrition has caused many diseases around the globe. Alternate protein or Novel protein alternative is usually the meat and dairy substitutes, which are processed by the various food and healthcare industries and used widely in the market. This source of protein has created a potential market for the vegan and health conscious consumers. The processed non-animal substitutes include tofu/soya bean, Wheat gluten, Mycoproteins, cultured meat, insects, and Alga spirulina. This alternative product has been able to show reduction in stress over the environmental sources and greenhouse gas emissions. Innovations in the food processing industry paves way for improved and better alternative consumable products than other natural products such as meat, egg, fish, and others. Asia-Pacific is growing at the fastest rate in terms of alternate protein market.
