It is also forecasted that the demand for functional food is to surpass the demand for functional beverage. Despite ease of manufacturing and consumption, functional foods are gaining popularity owing to their health benefits. The segment of probiotics is anticipated to be the leading one as more and more manufacturing companies are incorporating probiotic bacteria in various products. Most of the dairy products such as yoghurt are being incorporated with probiotic bacteria.
Growing Health Awareness to Fuel Growth
The most important factor contributing towards the growth of the global functional food ingredients market is the advantages of functional foods over conventional diets and regular food products. According to the report, research carried out in the recent past has revealed the effectiveness of functional foods. Amidst increasing concern and awareness for personal health, consumers are gradually shifting their preferences towards healthy foods of high-value nutrition from junk and convenience food. More consumers are now seen stocking up healthy functional foods of high-nutritive value.
However, stringent regulations and strict scrutiny concerning the food industry continue to pose a challenge for the overall expansion of the global functional food ingredients market. Various regulatory bodies such as Food and Drug Administration, United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization are continuously monitoring the use of chemicals in food. These factors pressurize manufacturers to get approvals for the distribution and production thereby delaying the whole process.
