People associated with academic and professional arenas are expected to contribute to the demand for the brain health supplements industry over the next few years. In addition, these products are likely to gain high acceptance among people suffering from various brain ailments such as depression, dementia, anxiety, and insomnia, to name a few.

As per an article published by the Anxiety & Depression Association of America in October 2022, approximately 19.1% of the adult population, i.e., 40 million people, in the U.S. suffer from anxiety. Increasing awareness about mental illnesses is expected to widen the scope of application for brain health supplements in the near future.

Moreover, these products are employed to treat other cognitive and age-related disorders, including hyperactivity and Parkinson's disease. Growing concern concerning mental health wellness and cognitive development is expected to augment the growth of the brain health supplements market.

Brain health supplements for memory enhancement registered the highest market penetration in 2022. Growing competition in academic and professional fields has been driving the growth of these products. Moreover, the increasing need for memory improvement among the older population was also one of the driving factors for such supplements.

In addition, the cost-effectiveness, as well as easy accessibility to these products, is expected to boost product adoption among consumers. Such factors are likely to contribute to segment growth.

For the last few years, supplements for enhancing cognitive function have mostly focused on aging baby boomers to help slow down or prevent cognitive disorders. With the development and awareness about these products, they are now more closely targeted at millennials, as this demographic is under constant pressure to increase its productivity.
