Increasing Awareness about Health and Wellness to Drive Demand

“The rising demand for herbal medicines and various other products related to health and wellness across the world is having a substantial impact in the global licorice extract market,” says an analyst at TMR. Nowadays, people are more conscious regarding their health and fitness, which has prompted them to shift to various medical supplements, especially natural, herbal, and sugar-free, leading to an increased uptake of natural ingredients in medical supplements. This, as a result, is boosting the demand for licorice extracts, worldwide, reflecting positively on this market.

Going forward, the market is likely to gain significantly in the near future from the increasing usage of sugar-free products, fueled by the augmenting concerns over the rising prevalence of diabetes and obesity.
