Lipids are oily, fatty, and waxy micro biomolecules that are soluble in organic solvents like amines, ethers, ketones, and methanol. They are derived from butter, oil, cheese, olives, corn, nuts, avocados, and other food products. They are mainly categorized into three variants, which include sterols that help in the production of hormones; phospholipids that make a protective layer around the cells to aid maintenance; and triglycerides that reduce inflammation. Lipids assist in serving as structural components of cell membranes, functioning as energy storehouses, and serving as important signaling molecules. Apart from their biological functions, lipids are employed in the production of agrichemicals, hydraulic fluids, inks, solvents, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.
Lipids Market Trends:
With rapid urbanization, sedentary lifestyles and the increasing consumption of fast food, there is a considerable rise in the prevalence of obesity and other health-related issues. This is resulting in the growing health consciousness among individuals and the escalating demand for nutritional lipids across the globe. Additionally, several food manufacturing companies are utilizing lipids as a substitute for synthetic flavoring carriers to maintain the taste and smell in their products. This can also be accredited to their excellent functional properties, which include density, hydrogenation, and emulsification. Furthermore, due to the outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the demand for lipid-based supplements is significantly rising on account of their health benefits. Apart from this, key players are coming up with nutritional ingredients to expand their reach in the food and beverage (F&B) and pharmaceutical industries. They are also considerably relying on advertisement campaigns, including celebrity endorsements, to increase the overall sales. Moreover, the rising vegan and vegetarian population and the emerging need to add sufficient nutrition to the daily diet are positively influencing the demand for lipid supplements around the world.
