U.S. market
In a recent survey, 18 percent of respondents in the United States stated that they
had tried high protein diet and four percent the keto diet within the past 12 months. In 2022, the sales of both
whey protein and plant-based proteins saw an increase. Sales of whey protein increased by about 25 percent that year. Plant protein had a slightly slower growth, at only about 12 percent. In 2023, nearly 33 percent of respondents in the United States that the term "good source of protein" best
defines healthy food to them. The term "low carbohydrate" was the less frequently chosen definition for healthy foods, with only 14 percent of respondents choosing this definition.
Consumer behavior
Many people claim to have had great success with the diet especially among the younger generation. In the United Kingdom, around 15 percent of
Generation Z survey respondents stated that they followed a low- or no-carb diet, while only eight percent of
baby boomers stated that they followed this diet. As of 2022, vegan diets were the most
popular diet based on google searches in the United States. Keto diets fell closely behind vegan diets. In third and fourth position were WeightWatchers and vegetarian diets, respectively, but their overall popularity scores are significantly lower.
