Lavish Healthcare Expenditure and Aggravating NCDs Endorse Usage of Nutraceuticals

Currently, the U.S., the U.K., India, and more regions of the global nutraceuticals market are observed to splurge high amounts on healthcare expenses due to extreme health concerns. Although this trend is foretold to stay alive for a short period until the end of 2017, the effect is anticipated to continue over a longer term. The ballooning disposable income is deemed to support the high healthcare spending in these countries.

There is an urgent need to eradicate non-communicable diseases (NCDs), especially in emerging nations, owing to their negative influence on low and middle income groups, global economy, national income, labor supplies, and private and government industries due to premature death.

The demand for functional foods is envisaged to swell on the back of a surging accentuation of healthy diet benefits, improvised distribution and transportation systems, elevating income, and soaring urbanization in the developed regions of the nutraceuticals market.

Nutraceuticals are regarded as the best alternatives for over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription drugs by both consumers and manufacturers in the world nutraceuticals market. For consumers, more commonly the aging population, nutraceuticals are better than pharmaceuticals because they provide nutritional as well as health boons. Besides this, they can be purchased without a prescription or doctor’s appointment. For drug manufacturers, nutraceuticals are a better choice as OTC and prescription medicines need to be produced according to the stringent regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and a proof of their effectiveness and safety.

Product Prices Worth King’s Ransom Humble Global Market Rise

Less awareness about nutraceutical products and their spiraling prices could veto the progress of the global nutraceuticals market. However, Asia Pacific is studied to emerge as a high-paying market with multiple factors to support its rise such as escalating occurrence of digestive issues and coronary heart disease, health consciousness, healthy food consumption, and high disposable income.

Technological advancements in the form of enhanced encapsulation and extraction of omega 3 fatty acids involved in regular dietary foods are predicted to the help the world nutraceuticals market advantageously. This type of encapsulation cancels the smell and taste of fish while enjoying the health benefits of omega 3 fatty acids in dietary beverages. The application of nutraceuticals is not just limited to dietary supplements, they are also extensively used in probiotics and fortified food products, including ice creams, baked foods, and chocolates.

The study presented here is based on a report by TMR, titled “Nutraceuticals Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth Trends, and Forecast 2015-2021.”
