Health and fitness relate to an individual’s overall well-being and physical condition. Health-conscious consumers, including athletes and fitness enthusiasts, increasingly seek higher protein intake to support muscle development, recovery, and overall health. Egg protein powder provides a convenient and high-quality source of protein to meet these needs. For example, in April 2024, according to Sport England, a UK-based organization responsible for promoting participation in sport and physical activity, data from November 2022-2023 showed that 63.4% of people, or 29.5 million individuals, engaged in an average of 150 minutes or more of physical activity per week. In comparison, 25.7% (11.9 million) participated in less than an average of 30 minutes per week, while 10.9% (5.1 million) were fairly active but did not reach the recommended 150 minutes per week. Therefore, the growing emphasis on health and fitness is supporting the expansion of the egg protein powder market.

Leading companies in the egg protein powder market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as precision-fermented egg protein, to improve the nutritional profile and sustainability of their products.

This innovative product is suitable for various culinary uses, such as baking and sauces, providing similar functionality without the environmental and ethical issues associated with conventional egg production.
