Abstract Proteins typically consist of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur, leading to a complex arrangement of amino acid molecules interconnected by peptide bonds. An in-depth examination of alternative protein-rich options is essential due to the decreasing availability of traditional protein sources and the necessity to satisfy the dietary needs of the growing global population. The primary objective of developing concentrates and isolates from a protein source is to enhance protein concentration by eliminating non-protein components. This process enables the utilization of a reduced quantity of protein in food formulation, thereby delivering targeted nutritional and functional attributes. Protein concentrates represent a viable alternative derived from various sources, such as dairy products, plants, and insects. The extraction strategies employed, spanning from traditional solvent extraction to innovative methods like membrane separation and enzyme-assisted techniques, offer avenues to enhance yield, preserve nutritional quality, and minimize environmental effects. These concentrates serve a crucial role in the food industry by enhancing dietary profiles, formulating functional foods, and addressing the increasing demand for plant-based and alternative protein sources. This review enhances our comprehension of this vital component in the quest for nutrient-rich and sustainable protein sources by elucidating their origins, extraction methods
