has announced the addition of the "Nuts and Seeds Market - Global
Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 -
2021" report to their offering.
The consumption of nuts and seeds among the consumers is
increasing globally. Thus the nuts and seeds market is witnessing a
dramatic growth across the world. Nuts and seeds consist of
essential nutrients such as fiber, folate protein and essential
minerals that make them rich in nutritional value. Nuts are dry and
hard shelled fruit with a kernel that can be consumed.
Seeds are embryonic plants which are enclosed in a seed coat.
Nuts and seeds have a wide variety of applications; nuts are
consumed raw or they can be an additive to several food items such
as dairy drinks, energy bars and others. Nuts are also used in the
cosmetics industry. However, seeds are used in several cooking
oils, several types of condiments and spices. They are also
considered as an important part of food additives.
Positive health benefits offered by the consumption of nuts and
seeds are fuelling the global nuts and seeds market. Prevention of
diabetes, low blood cholesterol, reducing incidences of coronary
heart diseases are some the positive effects associated with the
consumption of nuts and seeds. In addition, the increasing market
size of genetically modified crops is expected to have a positive
impact on the global nuts and seeds market.
However, excessive consumption of nuts and seeds has severe
adverse effects on human health thereby impeding the demand for
nuts and seeds globally. Excessive consumption of nuts and seeds
can result in unwanted weight gain, bowel disorders, diarrhea and
other health related issues. Moreover, high cost of raw materials
needed to process nuts and seeds is another factor restraining the
global nuts and seeds market.
Cashew nut held the largest market share in the global nuts
market followed by walnuts. Corn/Maize held the largest market
share in the global seeds market followed by soybean.
