Market Drivers
With the increasing pressure of social life in big cities, the development of human civilization accelerates the deterioration of the natural environment, the popularization of sub-health status of the new generation of parents, and the postponement of the birth age of women in modern society, the incidence of birth defects and diseases in newborns is also increasing. The increase in the number of infants with special diseases makes infant nutrition products popular in the market.
Infant nutrition is an alternative to breast milk. The first six months of life are crucial to a child's development, and ensuring optimal nutrition during this period is crucial. Breast milk has high nutritional value and contains carbohydrates, protein, fat, minerals and vitamins that are essential for a child's development. However, in some cases, mothers may be unable to produce breast milk or may be unable to breastfeed their babies for other reasons. In such cases, infant nutrition products may serve as appropriate substitutes.
Market Restraints
In recent years, infant formula products have been plagued by contamination, fraud and substitution. Regulators around the world are addressing risks and adjusting to ensure the safety of the world's smallest consumers.
Infant formula in developed and some developing countries is tightly regulated to ensure that the infant population is protected. Most of these regulations include specific nutrient levels, required testing for specific microorganisms, labeling requirements, company registration, operating requirements for sales facilities and/or analytical testing for specific chemical content. These strict regulations are necessary because for some babies, formula may be their main or only source of nutrition. Any defect or contamination could cause major immediate problems or have future consequences.
