Functional Carbohydrates Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global functional carbohydrates market size reached US$ 4.4 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 5.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.01% during 2022-2028.

Functional carbohydrates include dietary fiber, polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, sugar alcohols, and other functional monosaccharides. They aid in strengthening the immune system, regulating the intestinal flora, and decreasing the level of blood-lipid. Besides this, they create a natural, sugar-like sweetness, resist fermentation, prolong shelf-life, and offer low hygroscopicity, color and temperature stability. As a result, they are widely adopted in the manufacturing of sports nutrition and other functional food and beverages across the globe.

Functional Carbohydrates Market Trends:
Due to unhealthy dietary patterns, lack of physical activity, and the growing consumption of tobacco products, there is a significant rise in the prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) among individuals. This acts as a major factor positively influencing the adoption of functional carbohydrates worldwide as they provide nutritional benefits, such as balanced and sustained energy supply, promoting fat burning, reducing calories, improving metabolism, and supporting a low glycemic diet. Apart from this, the increasing health consciousness among individuals is catalyzing the demand for sugar replacers in the manufacturing of food items, such as chocolates, cereals, and baked goods. This, along with the growing participation of individuals in sports and other physical activities, is promoting the adoption of functional and nutraceutical products, which is contributing to the growth of the market. In addition, developments in enzyme technology allow carbohydrate products to be isolated, modified, and refined. This enables the creation of advanced forms of functional carbohydrates with potential health benefits. In confluence with this, the thriving agriculture industry and the rising consumption of animal-derived and dairy products are projected to escalate their demand as nutrition solutions for animal feed around the world.
