The government of Sweden has a clear public health policy aimed at promoting healthy nutrition and lifestyle. The government's bill, “A Renewed Public Health Policy,” emphasizes improving eating habits and physical activity, targeting children, young individuals, and parents to reduce health risks and promote good dietary habits. The Public Health Agency of Sweden and the Swedish Food Agency are tasked with setting national targets for healthy and sustainable food consumption, including increased intake of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, and reducing unhealthy food consumption.
The country's strong economy and high disposable income allow consumers to spend more on health and wellness products. According to a Svergies Riskbank report, Swedish households held over USD 1,760 billion of financial assets in 2023, equivalent to about 250% of GDP This reflects high financial stability and purchasing power, supporting greater consumer spending on health and wellness products in the Sweden nutraceuticals industry.
Sweden actively invests in innovation and technology, benefiting the nutraceutical industry through its strengthened national food research and innovation programs. According to an article published by Regeringskansliet, the government has boosted the National Food Research Program by allocating an additional USD 2.62 million in 2025, with funding set to increase permanently to USD 11.5 million annually from 2028 onward. These investments aim to support the development of innovative food processes, advanced products, and value-adding uses of raw materials.
Consumer Insights
In Sweden, health and wellness are deeply embedded in the national culture. Consumers prioritize preventive health strategies, favoring natural products and lifestyle choices that promote long-term well-being. Swedish consumers prefer products with clean labels and those free from artificial additives, preservatives, and genetically modified ingredients. The demand for gender-specific products is also rising, with women seeking supplements that target hormonal balance, beauty, and maternal health, while men show growing interest in performance and vitality products.
The increasing awareness and desire for preventive care drive the Swedish nutraceuticals industry. However, a gradual shift toward healthier food choices, including increased intake of vitamins, minerals, nuts, and seeds, which are key components of nutraceuticals, is expected to drive the demand for the industry. In addition, the socio-economic environment, including high disposable incomes and a culture that values wellness and sustainability, supports the premium pricing and niche positioning of many nutraceutical products in Sweden.
Product Insights
The functional food segment dominated the market with a revenue share of 46.1% in 2024. Rising cases of lifestyle diseases drive the market. According to an article published by PubMed in December 2023, a health screening study in southern Sweden found that 40-year-olds with self-reported psychiatric symptoms had significantly higher rates of unhealthy lifestyle habits such as poor diet, inactivity, smoking, and high-risk alcohol use. These individuals also showed higher BMI and waist-hip ratios, indicating a strong link between mental health challenges and increased risk for heart and metabolic diseases. In addition, growing preference for organic and natural products and technological advancements in food processing and formulation are also driving the nutraceutical market.
The dietary supplements segment in the Sweden nutraceuticals industry is projected to experience the fastest CAGR of 9.3% from 2025 to 2033. Preventive health behaviors are driving the demand for supplements, and digital purchasing habits of the people in Sweden are expected to further drive the demand for dietary supplements. In October 2024, Probi launched Probi Sense in Sweden, introducing a supplement combining the HEAL9 bacteria strain with zinc, iodine, and magnesium to support memory and concentration and reduce fatigue, all backed by four clinical studies.
Application Insights
The weight management & satiety segment held the largest revenue share of the Sweden nutraceuticals market in 2024. The segment is driven mainly by rising obesity concerns that fuel consumer interest in weight management products. Government policies and healthcare support also increase the demand for weight management supplements. According to a study indexed in PubMed in March 2025, the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare introduced the first national guidelines for obesity treatment in 2022. These guidelines are intended to guide the development of clinical management standards and support the nationwide implementation of effective weight-loss strategies from 2023 onward.
The men’s health segment is projected to experience the fastest CAGR from 2025 to 2033. Growing awareness of male-specific wellness concerns, including metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, and cardiovascular risk, drives focus on men’s health nutraceuticals in Sweden. Sweden’s diet and nutrition guidelines include tailored nutritional strategies for middle-aged men, stressing adequate protein, healthy fats, and essential micronutrients for maintaining muscle mass, metabolic resilience, and hormonal balance.
Distribution Channel Insights
The offline distribution segment dominated the Sweden nutraceuticals industry in 2024. Factors such as stringent regulatory guidelines for nutraceuticals and access to a wide range of nutraceuticals in stores and pharmacies account for a significant segment share. Offline outlets reassure buyers with immediate product availability, personalized advice, and verified quality, which builds their trust. Some pharmacy chains offering nutraceuticals are Apotek Hjärtat, Kronans Apotek, and Apoteket AB.
The online segment is anticipated to experience the fastest CAGR from 2025 to 2033. The market is driven by rising consumer awareness of preventive health, the convenience of e-commerce, and a growing preference for natural, plant-based, and personalized supplements. Swedish consumers are increasingly turning to digital platforms for products like probiotics, collagen, and immunity boosters, reflecting a broader shift toward self-care and wellness. The expanding range of personalized vitamins tailored to individual health goals and conditions is further accelerating the demand for the online segment.
