This review delves into the powder derived from various non-vegetarian sources, including eggs, pork, chicken and fish, with the primary objective of enhancing convenience and portability, preserving nutrient content and addressing the prevalent challenge of storing non-vegetarian foods, typically high in moisture. The incorporation of such powders in different food products is explored, emphasizing their potential to serve as a versatile nutritional component. These powders contain an array of nutraceuticals, with fish being rich in omega-3 fatty acids, egg yolk abundant in ovalbumin and chicken providing essential amino acids, alongside a plethora of vitamins and minerals. Their application spans from protein powder formulations to baking products and as supplements to meet daily nutritional requirements. Moreover, the nutraceutical profile of these powders offers various health benefits, such as promoting brain and heart health, reducing the risk of anaemia and lowering bad cholesterol levels.
