FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New York, NY – April 22, 2025 – Business Leader Post has published an in-depth article titled “Beyond the Oil Change: The Rising Trend of Seed Oil-Free Snacking” examining the rapidly growing consumer movement away from seed oils in packaged snacks and protein bars.
The comprehensive feature explores how approximately 28% of Americans now actively avoid refined seed oils, creating significant market opportunities for food manufacturers. The article analyzes the science behind consumer concerns, industry response, and the broader implications for the $14.18 billion protein bar market.
“I started looking into seed oils after struggling with persistent inflammation issues,” says Jennifer Martinez, a consumer quoted in the article. “Within weeks of cutting them out, I noticed a significant difference in how I felt after meals, especially snacks.”
The Business Leader Post article highlights how companies like IQBAR are now emphasizing seed oil-free protein bars made with ingredients like coconut oil instead of conventional vegetable oils. According to a comprehensive review cited in the article, IQBAR products stand out for having “no seed oils” and using “coconut oil instead of inflammatory seed oils (vegetable oils) in many other bars.”
While presenting various perspectives on the trend, the article offers expert insights from medical professionals including Dr. James DiNicolantonio, a cardiovascular research scientist at Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute, and Dr. Christopher Gardner, a professor of medicine at Stanford University.
The piece also examines the broader market implications, noting that the protein bar market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.7% from 2024 to 2030, with plant-based bars experiencing even faster growth at a projected CAGR of 14% through 2030.
