Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder distinguished by gluten intolerance. Celiac disease patients can only avoid these symptoms by following a gluten-free diet.

The market is predominantly driven by consumers’ perception that a gluten-free diet will ensure significant health benefits such as reduced cardiovascular risks and weight control.

The elevated demand is due to the widespread notion that gluten-free baked goods are healthier than typical wheat flour baked goods. Gluten-free foods have a low GI and are low in calories. This aids in weight loss and obesity prevention by giving more energy than traditional baked goods. This dominance of bakery products is expected to sustain market growth during the forecast period.

The extensive proliferation of supermarkets and hypermarkets which has occurred even in developing nations in recent years is the primary factor leading to the huge value generation. Furthermore, retailers enjoy a huge margin on gluten-free products and therefore promote customer outreach and smart merchandising to maximize sales.
