Prebiotics for Dietary Supplements Market, by Ingredient Type (Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), Xylooligosaccharides (XOS), Isomaltooligosaccharides (IMO) and Human milk oligosaccharides (HMO)), by Source (Plant (Including Botanicals) and Animal), by Distribution Channel (B2B (Generic) (Broker and Direct (supplier to client)), B2C (Branded) (Pharmacies, Specialty Stores, and Hypermarket and supermarket)), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa)- Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2030
Prebiotic ingredients are beneficial for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, diarrhea, colon cancer, for calcium absorption, and to maintain bone health, skin health, immunity, and obesity. Awareness about prebiotics has gained popularity in recent years, stimulating scientific as well as industrial interest. Prebiotic ingredients are produced from two sources – Plant (including Botanicals) and Animal. Plant sources include Chicory root fibers, onion, banana, bamboo shoots, legumes, etc. and Animal sources include chitin, bacteria, fungi, etc. Major prebiotic ingredients such as Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are derived from various plant sources such as chicory roots, artichokes, legumes, etc. Key market players are focusing on the launch of prebiotics for various industries to meet consumers' optimum nutritional needs. This is expected to drive the prebiotics for dietary supplements market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in February 2022, OptiBiotix Health Plc., a global leader in microbiome modulator based in the U.K., announced the launch of its sports nutrition ingredient, LeanBiome, which contains a patented combination of prebiotic and dietary fibers and a trace mineral that support lean body composition and gut health.
Market Dynamics
Increasing incidences of chronic digestive diseases, increasing adoption of inorganic growth strategies by market players such as acquisitions, facility expansion, and partnerships to strengthen their position in market is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, on June 2022, Tate & Lyle, a global provider of solutions and ingredients, announced the completion of its acquisition of Quantum Hi-Tech (Guangdong) Biological Co., Ltd., a leading prebiotic dietary fiber business located in China. Through this acquisition, Tate & Lyle strengthened its presence in China.
Moreover, Celiac disease (CD), a chronic digestive and immune disorder, has been increasing, which has in turn prompted patients to consume gluten-free diets for a long time. Thus, the most preferred food to facilitate a proper diet among celiac disease patients are functional foods such as prebiotics and probiotics to recover the gut ecology and colon health.
For instance, according to an article published by Frontiers Media S.A. in June 2021, a systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to quantify the weighted prevalence of CD among patients with Turner Syndrome (TS) was studied between January 1991 and December 2019, majorly in European countries. It was found that nearly 1 in every 22 patients with TS had CD in European countries.
Therefore, the increasing prevalence of CD is expected to drive demand for prebiotics over the forecast period.
