Abstract
Microalgae may provide a sustainable protein source with higher protein content and better nutritional quality than conventional crops.
- Microalgae offer a protein balance comparable to meat, making them a viable alternative for protein supplementation.
- Health benefits associated with microalgae include antioxidants, cardiovascular support, and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Optimizing cultivation techniques is essential to enhance the protein content of microalgae for food production.
- Despite the presence of microalgae-based food products in the market, challenges remain in their widespread adoption.
- Further research is needed to explore the link between microalgal proteins and human health.
