Functional ingredients consists of food components that are intended to enhance a product’s nutritional profile by offering benefits beyond their primary function. The ingredients are designed to offer benefits such as weight loss, heart health, immune system support, gastrointestinal support, and more. These ingredients are gaining popularity as people become more conscious of their overall health and seek well-balanced diets. Functional ingredients can be added to a variety of food products to enhance their nutritional value, such as smoothies, protein shakes, dairy alternatives, and other healthy snacks.
Market Dynamics
The global functional ingredients market is growing as consumers increasingly looking for nutritious convenience foods. This has led to a rise in the production of fortified foods, which is augmenting the growth of the market. The increasing preference of consumers towards probiotics, prebiotics, essential oils, and hydrocolloids is also fostering growth of this market. In addition, the growing trend of clean label or organic food items is again propelling the demand for these ingredients. Consumers are looking for foods and beverages that contain high-quality nutrients, are free from additives, and are gluten-free or GMO-free. In order to cater to the demand for such products, manufacturers are incorporating these ingredients into their products, thereby fueling market growth.
On the other hand, strict regulations regarding the commercialization of functional food is expected to hamper the market growth.
