Vegetable protein from seeds and grains, the new protagonist in healthy eating

Taking care of our health and weight control are two factors that have seen their growth soar among a large part of society as a result of the changes brought about by the advent of COVID-19. This has led, for example, to a clear increase in the demand for foods high in vegetable proteins. Few ingredients are so closely aligned with current consumer concerns : they contribute to sustainability, provide healthy nutrients and are essential in vegan diets.           

Within this trend towards the consumption of vegetable proteins, seeds and grains are currently gaining prominence because they are very affordable and offer protein, fiber, healthy fats and important trace elements. They are becoming the source of substitute protein for "meat" of vegetable origin. The increase in consumption of this type of food in sectors such as snacks and bakery may inspire other food categories to innovate and incorporate them into their products to provide new flavors, textures and nutrition. 

Without going any further, this type of protein is a revolution in sports nutrition, as well as for those seeking to lose weight and body fat through keto diets, in which an excess of animal protein can lead to both taste and body fatigue. In these cases, plant-based proteins may be a better solution.
