Yogurt-like
Composition that Smoothens Bowel Movement Boosts Demand
“The
kefir market has been witnessing steady growth over the years as
increasing consumption of health-benefitting foods is a general trend
observed across the world,” according to TMR’s lead analyst The
kefir market is primarily driven by the health benefits of kefir
combined with an array of applications of kefir in food and beverage
products. Kefir is a fermented probiotic drink and is loaded with
essential nutrients. Kefir is considered to be very healthy for diet
conscious consumers and is often recommended for fitness regimes.
Further, kefir is also advised to obese and individuals with gastric
patients to improve their metabolism and smoothen the bowel movement.
Furthermore,
kefir is said to be beneficial for improving lactose intolerance.
Being similar to yogurt, kefir contains many useful bacteria that
help in lactose digestion. This is because consuming kefir results in
destroying bacterial cells in the intestinal tract and in turn
release enzymes for better digestion of lactose. This benefits
individuals who are lactose intolerant.
With
rising health consciousness among individuals and consumers looking
for protein alternatives, the kefir market is expected to receive a
fillip.
Mental
block of Lactose Intolerant Individuals Inhibits Growth
Proving
to be a roadblock to the growth of kefir market is mind block of
lactose intolerant consumers due to lack of adequate awareness about
the health benefits of kefir. Lactose intolerant consumers comprise
approximately 65% of the human population globally. The condition is
usually present at birth and lasts till adulthood. Despite known that
kefir is harmless for this segment, consumers have a mental block
regarding consumption of this product.
