The Nutraceutical Excipients Market is expected to reach USD 2,732.8 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period of 2018 to 2023. The nutraceutical excipients market is majorly driven by growing demand for nutraceuticals. Nutraceuticals have proven health benefits and their consumption keeps diseases at bay and allow humans to maintain an overall good health. The demand for nutraceuticals is driven by increase in consumer awareness about health and fitness; rise in disposable income and middle-class consumers in countries such as India and China; growing ageing population; growing urbanization; increase in incidence of lifestyle related diseases such as blood pressure, diabetes, and cardiac diseases; inadequate nutrition due to the consumer’s busy lifestyle; and high cost of healthcare. Moreover, development of multifunctional excipients further provides significant opportunities for the various stakeholders in this market. However, factors such as declining R & D investments for nutraceutical excipients are expected to hinder the growth of this market to some extent.
Nutraceutical products contain various compounds which are unstable to heat, light, oxygen, alkaline pH, and elevated humidity. They may also have poor flow, bulk density, and variable particle size distribution. This unstable nature of compounds is controlled by incorporating different nutraceutical excipients such as fillers, diluents, disintegrants, binders, coating agents, flavoring agents, colorant, sweeteners, lubricants, and others during the production of different form of supplements i.e. tablets, capsules, powders, and liquid syrups.
