Algal protein has emerged as a versatile remedy for various conditions such as ADHD, premenstrual heart disease, and diabetes, among others, while also aiding in weight loss. Its rich nutritional profile and positive impact on the body’s defenses are fueling a surge in global demand. Consumer preferences are shifting towards plant-based and other meat alternatives due to escalating sustainability concerns, such as meat production’s contribution to greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss. This trend is poised to drive market expansion.

Manufacturers are constantly striving to enhance the protein content in processed beverages, food, and nutraceuticals. Chlorella and spirulina algae stand out as natural sources offering the highest total protein content. Consequently, algae incorporation into products by nutraceuticals, food & beverage, and pet food manufacturers is becoming increasingly commonplace. With algae proving to be a viable protein source, demand for this substance is projected to escalate in the coming years.
