Pune, April 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The global functional foods and beverages market size is projected to reach USD 412.22 million by 2026, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.49% during the forecast period. Increasing malnutrition worldwide will be the primary growth driver for this market in the near future, shares Fortune Business Insights™ in its new report, titled “Functional Foods and Beverages Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Cereals & Grains, Fats & Oils, Dairy Products, Bakery Products, and Other Functional/Fortified Foods) Distribution Channel (Supermarkets/Hypermarkets, Convenience Stores, Online Retail, and Others), and Regional Forecasts, 2019 – 2026”.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), close to 462 million people are underweight and 52 million children under the age of 5 are suffering from wasting. Moreover, roughly 45% of deaths among children below 5 years of age occur due to under-nutrition. As a result, governments have spurred into action in both developed and developing countries. For instance, in 2019, the UK government made it mandatory to fortify flour with folic acid to prevent occurrence of congenital disabilities in children. Similarly, in July 2019, the Indian government announced distribution of rice fortified with folic acid, Vitamin B12, and iron through the Public Distribution System (PDS). The market for functional foods and beverages, thus, stands to gain from these developments.   The functional food and beverages market report states that the value of this market stood at USD 216.25 million in 2018.

High Nutritional Value of Functional Foods to Spike UptakeThe popularity of fortified food and beverages has been steadily climbing in recent years, mainly due to the hectic and unhealthy lifestyles people are leading in urban areas. As a result, there is a growing demand for nutrition-rich food and beverage items fueled by rising health and wellness concerns. Functional foods have emerged as an attractive option for many consumers, given their wide-ranging and long-term benefits.For example, functional foods and beverages fortified with omega-3 fatty acids can boost brain function, secure heart health, and reduce inflammation. The benefits of functional foods are not limited to just chronic and lifestyle-based disorders; they have proven efficacy in tackling the effects of under-nourishment too. For example, the National Institutes of Health reported that the introduction of wheat flour fortified with iron in Jordan led to 50% reduction in the incidence of iron deficiency anemia among children.
Regional AnalysisEvolving Lifestyles in Asia-Pacific to Aid the Region Register Impressive CAGRAsia-Pacific is slated to dominate the functional food and beverages market share and grow at a CAGR of 9.20% during the forecast period. The central reason for this rise is the rapidly changing lifestyles of people that are increasing the prevalence of chronic conditions in the region. An example of this is the increasing consumption of fast or “junk” food. Thus, there is a surging demand for nutritional foods as people are getting more health conscious, especially in India. In addition to foodstuffs, there is also a high demand for functional hydration, particularly in tropical countries where water loss from the body is high. After Asia-Pacific, North America is expected to be the second-largest region for this market, anticipated to register a CAGR of 7.06% in the forthcoming years.IntroductionResearch ScopeMarket SegmentationResearch MethodologyDefinitions and AssumptionsExecutive SummaryMarket DynamicsMarket DriversMarket RestraintsMarket OpportunitiesEmerging TrendsKey InsightsOverview of the Parent/Related MarketsNutraceuticals MarketTechnological AdvancementsIndustry SWOT AnalysisRecent Industry Developments – Policies, Partnerships, New Product Launches, and Mergers & AcquisitionsGlobal Functional Foods and Beverages Market Analysis, Insights and Forecast, 2015-2026Key Findings / SummaryMarket Size Estimates and Forecast By Type (Value)Functional Cereals & GrainsFunctional Fats & OilsFunctional Dairy ProductsFunctional Bakery ProductsOther Functional/Fortified FoodsBy Distribution Channel (Value)Supermarkets/HypermarketsConvenience StoresOnline RetailOthersBy Region (Value)North AmericaEuropeAsia PacificSouth AmericaMiddle East & AfricaTOC Continued…!
