Mineral Supplements Market Size, Share, & Trends Analysis Report By Product, By End-user, By Formulation, By Application, By Sales Channel, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2022 - 2030

Report Overview

The global mineral supplements market size was valued at USD 13.6 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.4% from 2022 to 2030. Growing adoption of mineral supplements to manage chronic conditions due to the large percentage of the population suffering from chronic diseases such as cancer, osteoporosis, anemia, and osteoporosis is anticipated to drive the market. According to the International Osteoporosis Foundation statistics, in Canada, about 2 million people were suffering from osteoporosis in 2017. Furthermore, the growing trend of adopting preventive health management practices due to the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases fuels the market growth. For instance, as per the data released by the WHO, diabetes caused 1.5 million deaths in 2019, out of which 48% of deaths occurred before the age of 70. The rising number of fitness clubs, along with growing awareness about healthy lifestyles, further propels the market growth.

Growing adoption of a sedentary lifestyle, along with the increased intake of an unhealthy diet, has led to a rise in the number of people dealing with nutritional deficiencies. Different proportions of minerals are required for the proper functioning of the body. These mineral deficiencies can lead to different types of health issues such as fatigue, weak bones, and decreased immune system. As per the data of NutraIngredients-USA, iron deficiency is the most common among the population of the U.S. Furthermore, growing government initiatives to promote a healthy lifestyle further fuel the market growth.

According to UNICEF, in Latin America, 3 out of 10 individuals are overweight. As per various studies, minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium help in managing weight and curbing obesity. Such factors are expected to positively impact market growth.

In addition to the growing awareness regarding the benefits of mineral supplements, key market players are focusing on innovative product development and research of exotic ingredients. The growing trend of plant-based products further brings growth opportunities for the market. Moreover, in order to manage metabolic disorders, consumers are opting for personalized preventive products and services rather than opting for curative health management practices, thus positively impacting the market growth.

Unlike other industries, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic led to a rise in the demand for mineral supplements. According to a report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the infection had a negative impact on people who had a mineral deficiency. Recent research suggests that giving higher doses of mineral supplements than suggested could assist COVID-19 patients to reduce viral load and hospitalization. Thus, it led to a surge in the launch of new products to cater to the growing demand among consumers. However, the sale of counterfeit products is expected to hamper the market growth. Economic crisis and political conflicts disrupt the supply chain, which leads to a rise in the production of locally made, cheap products. Growing demand and easy accessibility of mineral supplements have further led to a rise in the availability of counterfeit products.

This is due to the easy availability and high abundance of raw materials in India and Southeast Asia.

The Middle East and Africa is expected to register the fastest CAGR over the forecast period.
