Growing demand for functional food & beverage products owing to their health benefits and giving a sense of eating healthy to the consumer is increasing the demand for functional ingredients including flavonoids, polyphenolic amides, and phenolic acid, to name a few. These mentioned products are the types of polyphenols. Further, studies show that people who have polyphenol-rich diets — consuming more than 650 milligrams per day — have lower death risks than those who get less than 500 milligrams per day. Therefore, many companies are offering or launching functional products in the market which contain the benefits of polyphenols. For instance, in 2019, Fytexia, a France-based life science company, launched Oxxynea O, a new ingredient formulated with bioactive polyphenols from organic sources of rosemary, olive, grape, and artichoke.

Based on type, the market is categorized into flavonoids, phenolic acid, polyphenolic amides, and others. Among these flavonoids accounted for a major share in the market and are likely to retain their position during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the vast range of fruits & vegetables which contains flavonoids. Examples include quercetin, kaempferol, catechins, and anthocyanins, which are found in foods like apples, onions, dark chocolate, and red cabbage.

Based on application, the market is categorized into functional food, functional beverage, dietary supplement, cosmetics & toiletries, and others. Out of these, functional food accounted for a considerable share of the market. Many functional foods are rich in antioxidant properties. These molecules help neutralize harmful compounds knowns as free radicals, helping prevent cell damage and certain chronic conditions including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Since polyphenols act as an antioxidant, therefore with increasing demand for functional food, the consumption of polyphenols in the application would increase.
