Furthermore, the rise in consuming disease-specific formulas is set to boost the market, driven by increasing incidence of targeted diseases and advancements in drug development. Clinical nutrition is increasingly used for personalized treatment, especially in diseases like cancer and cystic fibrosis, where special nutrition is vital to prevent drug interactions. For example, in cystic fibrosis cases, unique digestive enzyme capsules are administered, varying among individuals. Notable companies like Nestlé specialize in personalized clinical nutrition products, offering solutions like Deplin for depression and Metanx for diabetes.

Growing product launches and constant innovations by manufacturers are key factors expected to drive product demand. The need for new food to address inherited metabolic disorders and manage incurable conditions is on the rise. For instance, In July 2022, Danone, as stated in the press release, launched the first-ever dairy and plants blend baby formula in response to parents’ demand for vegetarian & flexitarian options for their babies. The consumption of plant-based products is experiencing significant growth, with over one-third (37%) of EU consumers opting for a vegan, vegetarian, or flexitarian diet. In addition, almost 70% (69%) of parents now prefer their children to consume more plant-based foods.

Industry experts provide insights on the significance of this product launch:

At Danone, we recognize many parents want to introduce plant-based, vegetarian, and flexitarian options into their baby’s diet, while still meeting their baby’s specific nutritional requirements. Our new Dairy & Plants Blend baby formula has been developed with these needs top of mind.”

-Manuela Borella, Vice President, Global Plant Based Strategy & Business Acceleration, Nutricia's parent company Danone

In October 2020, Nestle Health Science introduced a protein-based ready-to-drink nutritional food in China for special medical purposes, featuring galactomannan to improve gastrointestinal intolerance.

Market Concentration & Characteristics

Market growth is at a high stage, accelerating in pace. The medical foods market, driven by a surge in chronic diseases, exhibits significant innovation. Key players are engaging in industry consolidation through acquisitions, mergers, and partnerships to expand product reach.

- Martin Bates, President, Dairy Farmers of America (DFA) Ingredient Solutions

The medical foods market is subject to increasing regulatory scrutiny. According to Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, for a product to be classified as medical food, it must be labeled for dietary management of a specific disease condition with discrete nutritional requirements and must be intended for oral or tube feeding. In addition, the product must be intended for use under specific medical supervision.

Threat of substitute product is expected to be low in medical foods market over the forecast period. Medical food are partial or complimentary meal replacement, and these products effectively enhance the chronic disease management.

Growing geriatric population along with the increasing number of chronic diseases would offer growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period. Medical foods products are highly adopted by the geriatric population who are dealing with chronic conditions for proper intake of nourishment and, thus, fueling the market growth.

Route of Administration Insights

Oral segment led the market and accounted for 70.0% of the global revenue in 2023. Increased preference for orally administered products, commercial viability, and supportive initiatives are key factors driving the demand for orally administered medical foods. Furthermore, the growing manufacturing of oral products in the form of prethickened products, powders, and pills is anticipated to fuel the segment. For instance, in January 2023, Nutricia launched its Fortimel PlantBased Energy, a plant-based oral nutritional supplement designed to address the nutritional requirements of individuals facing malnutrition or those at risk due to illness. This addition to the Fortimel portfolio leverages Nutricia's parent company, Danone's proficiency in plant nutrition. It further extends the range of Fortimel products, which are clinically proven medical nutrition solutions specifically developed to cater to the daily needs of patients.

Enteral route of the administration segment is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast years. The growing prevalence of cardiovascular and chronic diseases resulting from several metabolic disorders leads to difficulty in oral food consumption and increases the preference for medical food feeding through enteral mode. Moreover, the growing focus of the manufacturers to develop technologically advanced enteral feeding devices is positively impacting the segment growth.

Product Insights

Powder segment accounted for the largest market revenue share in 2023. Medical foods are most widely available in powder form, which can be administered through the oral route or enteral route by mixing with milk or water, as advised by the physician. Medical foods in the powdered formula are suitable for patients of all age groups, especially in the oral route. Owing to a high preference for powdered formulations due to ease of consumption, manufacturers are developing product categories in line with consumer preferences. For instance, in January 2022, Danone launched Souvenaid, a powder version of a medical nutrition drink to support memory function in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.

The liquid segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period owing to the rising adoption of liquid formulations in the pediatric and geriatric population, where the intake of solid formulations is limited or impossible and in case of clinically diagnosed dysphagia or when oral physiology is limited. In addition, the ease of administration of liquid-based medical foods and the commercial viability of these products will drive the segment. Increasing functional gastrointestinal disorders and the recommendation of doctors to intake liquid formulated medical food who suffer from these illnesses before or after surgeries support the segment growth. Moreover, the increasing benefits of taking liquid formulated food to maintain sufficient hydration and electrolyte balance favor the segment growth.

Application Insights

The cancer application segment dominated the market in 2023. According to the Pan America Health Organization, North America saw approximately 4 million new cancer diagnoses in 2020, resulting in 1.4 million deaths. Notably, 57% of new cases and 47% of related deaths affected individuals aged 69 or younger. Globally, 2020 recorded an estimated 20 million new cancer cases and 10 million deaths. Projections indicate a 60% increase in the cancer burden over the next two decades, reaching approximately 30 million new cases by 2040, with significant rises in low- and middle-income countries. These statistics underscore the increasing for comprehensive strategies to address the growing cancer burden and support affected populations worldwide.

Cancer weakens immunity, leading to malnutrition in 40% to 80% of cases. Medical food administration is an effective option for restoring nutritional balance in malnourished patients. Consequently, the demand for medical foods in cancer treatments is expected to rise over the forecast period.

Sales Channel Insights

Institutional sales channel held the largest market share in 2023. The growing number of patient visits to the hospitals and other healthcare facilities for the diagnosis and treatment of several chronic and dietary disorders is driving the segment. Medical foods are prescribed by doctors for particular disease management. In addition, the increasing preference among the patients to consult a doctor in the hospitals for their chronic disease management will drive the segment. Moreover, the growing number of private and public healthcare institutions and the increasing chronic disease patient population across the globe will support the segment growth.

Global Medical Foods market share and size, 2023

The online sales segment is anticipated to expand at the fastest rate over the forecast period. Preference for the online purchase of medical foods is rising owing to the convenience offered by this sales channel. Although medical foods are mainly consumed under medical surveillance, these are intended for long-term nutrition management, which is resulting in surging sales through e-commerce. Thus, with the e-commerce penetration, there is a shift from traditional methods of purchase to online purchase of medical foods, thereby offering various market growth opportunities.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market and accounted for 29.7% share in 2023. Growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing geriatric population, which is more susceptible to chronic diseases, such as gastrointestinal disorders, metabolic disorders, and neurological disorders. According to the United Health Foundation, in 2022, about 17.3% of the population in the U.S. was aged 65 and above. Furthermore, around 56 million elderly people are expected to depend on medical foods to fulfill their nutritional needs in the U.S. by 2030. Moreover, the growing number of premature infants in critical care is a major factor driving market growth. For instance, in 2022, CDC reported that approximately 10% of infants born in the U.S. were affected by preterm birth. In addition, the preterm birth rate decreased by 1% in 2022, after a 4% increase from 2020 to 2021. These aforementioned factors are anticipated to fuel market growth over the forecast period.

Medical Foods Market Trends, by Region, 2024 - 2030

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period owing to the increasing rate of cancer and diabetic patients, along with several government initiatives in the healthcare segment.

Medical Foods Market Dynamics

Driver: Rising geriatric population

According to several NCBI studies, individuals over 65 years of age are at a greater risk of developing chronic illnesses such as Parkinson’s disease and nervous system disorders. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, currently, more than 54 million adults in the U.S. are aged 65 and above. This number is expected to reach around 85.7 million by 2050. This is a significant increase from 1950 when the geriatric population was around 8%. The number of elderly patients with critical illnesses has increased significantly in the past few years. The risk of malnutrition and frailty among elderly people with comorbidities, such as stroke, depression, and dementia, is higher owing to various age-related changes in body composition and muscle mass. This results in reduced ability to perform Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), thereby increasing the risk of fall or injuries. Hence, it is important to analyze the pathophysiology behind the nutritional deficiency. According to an NCBI article published in 2018, the prevalence of nutrient deficiency in geriatric population is nearly 15% in ambulatory outpatients, 35% to 65% among hospitalized patients, and 20% to 60% in institutionalized patients. Thus, healthcare professionals focus on maximizing options for enteral nutrition, which is expected to boost the market’s growth.

Driver: Growing prevalence of chronic diseases

Chronic diseases, including non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer & diabetes, are the leading cause of deaths worldwide. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), non-communicable diseases are responsible for 41 million deaths every year. There has also been a constant rise in the prevalence of other chronic diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and central nervous system disorders. Alzheimer’s disease is one of the common neurodegenerative medical conditions that leads to dementia, decline in functional ability, and behavioral changes along with economic burden. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, as of 2022, approximately 6.5 million people in the U.S. aged 65 and above are living with Alzheimer’s dementia. Moreover, 10% of the world’s population aged 60 and above has osteoarthritis-related health problems. All these chronic conditions require clinical dietary management, which is anticipated to contribute to driving the growth of the market.

Restraint: Lack of awareness in the medical community

The general lack of awareness and understanding regarding medical foods in the medical community is restricting the adoption of medical foods. These foods require prescription and supervision by medical professionals. Although they are gaining acceptance, medical foods remain poorly understood by patients, physicians, and pharmacists. This factor prevents doctors from adopting or prescribing medical foods, which may restrain market growth. Not all medical experts are convinced about the advantages of medical foods in chronic disease management, which is expected to impede market growth. The management of chronic diseases is majorly based on drug-based therapies. With the introduction of medical foods, drug-based therapies are supplemented with foods for special medical purposes. However, limited adoption of these products in some countries is restraining the growth. Some health services and payers do not cover the cost of medical foods in disease management, which can also hinder the growth. However, manufacturers are focusing on raising awareness among consumer and healthcare professionals, which is anticipated to help change market dynamics.
