Global Lipid Market (2017-2022): Increasing Consumption of Functional Foods - Research and Markets

The "Global Lipid Market - Growth, Trends and Forecasts (2017 - 2022)" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

Lipid has a functional and significant role in the food because of its contribution to palatability, satiety, and nutrition. Consequently, quality of the lipid is a concern among consumers due to its association with numerous health problems. Lipid oxidation is a major problem in many areas of the food industry. Delaying lipid oxidation not only prolongs the shelf-life of a product, but also decreases raw material waste, nutritional loss, and widens the range of lipids that can be used in particular products. Therefore, by controlling lipid oxidation, food processors can be made available with reduced costs, coupled with the use of more nutritionally-favorable oils for product preparations.

The primary importance of lipids is their influence on the sensory properties. They affect the texture and increase the viscosity of morsel after mixing with saliva, which is appreciated by many consumers. The most desirable influence of lipids is their effect on the odor and flavor of food products. Plant lipids, being more unsaturated than animal lipids, produce different flavor notes as a result of culinary operations. Moreover, flavors originating, during roasting or frying temperatures, are particularly appreciated.

The role of lipids in emulsification is the dispersing fat uniformly into the water. The use of shortenings is formulated with mono-glycerides, as fat and milk is emulsified in cake batters to make them finely-textured. Some examples of food products that have an existent emulsification are mayonnaise, salad dressing, gravies, and cheese sauces.
