A noticeable shift in lifestyle focus centered on well-being has been a key factor in the growth of this market. Fitness enthusiasts, either beginners or pro-athletes, are driving the demand for this product type. The next major sub-segment has been the protein and amino acids category, due to their effectiveness in maintaining muscle mass and improving physical fitness parameters for gym enthusiasts.

In terms of functionality, the other functionalities segment accounted for the highest demand in 2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing consumer base, as more and more people are focusing on their well-being by starting with consuming detox drinks and managing weight problems.
