The food mineral market is experiencing a boost driven by the awareness and health consciousness among consumers. The easy accessibility of information through the internet and social media platforms has played a pivotal role in increasing health consciousness levels among the global population. These platforms serve as valuable educational resources, allowing individuals to gain insights into health, nutrition, and other pertinent facts. Consequently, consumer purchasing patterns for food products have experienced a shift towards the preference for healthier dietary choices.

Moreover, the awareness of health coupled with evolving lifestyles has led to significant transformations in consumer behavior, particularly in terms of opting for healthier food consumption. In recent years, consumers are actively seeking food options that align with their health goals and preferences. This shift in demand has prompted food manufacturers and producers to respond with innovative products enriched with a variety of food minerals. By incorporating essential minerals into their offerings, these industry players aim to cater to the evolving tastes and priorities of health-conscious consumers, further propelling the growth of the food mineral market.

Although the food minerals market has experienced rapid growth, but still there are few barriers to the growth of the market owing to the presence of cost limitations. Cost constraint is a crucial factor that affects the development of the food minerals market. Food mineral product manufacturing and development can be costly, particularly when it comes to products with advanced technology, innovative formulas, and unique delivery mechanisms. According to the World Bank, around 42% of the global population, which is approximately 3 billion people, could not afford healthy food in 2021. This huge number gives a clear idea about the high prices of food and medicinal products infused with food minerals. Increasing costs in food fortification process results to the rise in overall price of mineral products and supplements. All these factors adversely affect the growth of the food minerals market and is expected to hamper the demand for the food mineral products.

Urbanization presents a significant opportunity for the food mineral market owing to its profound impact on food systems and consumer behavior. With more than half of the global population residing in urban areas, a figure expected to reach 6 billion by 2045, the urbanization trend is a key factor influencing dietary habits. The surge in health consciousness and awareness, fueled by easily accessible information on social media and the internet, has led to a growing concern about the adverse health effects of unbalanced lifestyles and the consumption of low-nutrient value foods, including fast foods.

As urban population increasingly prioritizes healthy lifestyles, there is an increased demand for food minerals and nutritional supplements to support their well-being. The internet's role in disseminating information and the growing interest in fitness contribute to this trend. Moreover, the aging urban population is becoming more aware of the importance of bone health. The lack of essential nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D, crucial for healthy bones, can lead to orthopedic disorders. This awareness drives the consumption of food minerals to maintain optimal bone health. Furthermore, the rise in health-conscious urban populations creates a substantial market opportunity for food minerals. As consumers seek products that align with their health goals, the food mineral market stands to benefit from this shift in dietary preferences and the increasing emphasis on overall well-being.
