What are the Key Trends in the Market for Carotenoid?

Prevalence of cardiovascular diseases to impact the global market.”

Increasing health concerns related to immunity, brain/memory and digestive system has led to growing preference for fortified and functional food products. Prevalence of various cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease has further led to increasing preference for functional food products in the food industry. Growing need for prevention from other diseases such as cataract and elderly muscular degeneration has also fuelled demand for functional food products.

Other health related disorders contributing towards growth of the global carotenoids market include epilepsy, infertility, heartburn, high blood pressure, depression, and Alzheimer’s disease. As the need for functional food products, food coloring products, food supplements, and food pigments remain high, demand for carotenoids is expected to remain high.

“Demand to Remain High in the Food Industry”

Besides food industry, demand for carotenoids is expected to remain high in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry globally. As carotenoids are rich in vitamin-A, demand continues to remain high in the cosmetic industry.

Growing need for ingredients that are rich in antioxidants and other benefiting attributes such as vitamin A, C, E and D has led to surge in demand for carotenoids in the cosmetic industry. Attributed to various health benefitting attributes, manufacturers are increasingly opting for carotenoids for production of various cosmetic products. Surge in demand for carotenoids in the cosmetic industry will continue to contribute towards growth of the global carotenoids market during the forecast period.

“Pharmaceutical Industry to Contribute Towards Growth of Global Market”

In addition, growing production of the dietary supplements in the pharmaceutical industry will further impact growth of the global carotenoids market positively. With the growing middle class population, demand for dietary supplements, meat and milk is expected to increase. These factors are further expected to impact growth of the global market positively.

“High Carotenoid Intake Poses Health Risks”

Dietary supplements of beta-carotenoids also contain beta-apocarotenoids that act as antagonists of retinoid or vitamin A signalling. Antagonism of vitamin A signalling pathway by these naturally occurring carotenoids can have negative implications in the functions of dietary beta-carotene or pro-vitamin A. This further creates potential risks of developing cardiovascular disease and cancer. Such health issues have generated needs for specific regulatory guidelines regarding consumptions of specific carotenoids.
