Wheat protein is the key ingredient in seitan, a
delicious protein-dense meat substitute. And although wheat protein is used
in many foods, the report finds that “globally increasing consumer preference
for meat-free diets is generating the surge in market value. According to the report,
“Wheat protein is increasingly adopted as a vital health supplement mostly by

The growth of veganism is great news for the countless
