Hemp-based food products have gained immense popularity due to their easy digestibility by dint of being free from gluten, allergens, genetically modified organisms (GMO), lactose, phytoestrogen, and pesticides. Hemp is a good source of fiber and vitamins &minerals including magnesium, vitamin E, zinc, and iron. Consumption of hemp-based food products aids the maintenance of a healthy digestive system which further drives the overall market across developed regions such as North America and Europe. Hemp seeds are a highly nutritious source of protein and are being increasingly used in packaged foods such as granola bars, pretzels, bread, and cereals. The global hemp-based food market is divided by ingredients into the protein, oil, and seed categories. Among these, hemp seeds dominated the global market in 2015 and are expected to retain its leading position over the forecast period. Their growing usage in various foods such asnut butter, corn chips, and snack bars is expected to motivate the hemp-based food products market over the forecast period. In addition to this, hemp seeds are rich with amino acids which made these products an ideal choice for health-conscious and vegan consumers. Hemp-based food is emerging as the ultimate source of protein for vegans due to its better digestibility than that of other plant proteins. Apart from this, hemp seeds could be easily added to baking goods or incorporated into salads or soups.
