Drivers
Growing consumption of protein powder as it is essential for muscle growth along with the growing demand for plant-based protein is expected to fuel the market growth of protein ingredients. For instance, in March 2017, MusclePharm Corporation, a provider of supplements based out of the U.S., introduced MusclePharm Natural Series, which is a line of plant-based premium protein products targeting consumers seeking organic alternatives to traditional dairy-based supplements.
Market Opportunities
The growing popularity of dairy and plant protein blend products is expected to offer potential opportunities over the forecast period. Blends of dairy and plant proteins enhance the protein levels and also reduces formulation costs, as prices of plant-based protein are less volatile compared to other protein. According to the study conducted in 2015 by DuPont Nutrition & Health, ready-to-drink beverages formulated with blends were more preferred as compared to single protein beverages in terms of both flavor and cost.
Market Trends
Increasing usage of protein ingredients in breakfast based cereals is a major trend that has been observed in the market and this trend is expected to augment the market growth protein ingredient over the forecast period.

The flavor features flakes made from a mix of whole grains such as sorghum and black rice alongside wheat and rice.
