Latest News- Functional Food Market: Offline is expected to lead the Distribution Channel segment during 2024-2028

The Functional Food Market is being driven by Rising health awareness

The Functional Food Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.66% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 127.46 billion. The functional food market is experiencing significant growth due to the emergence of personalized nutrition, a trend that caters to individualized health needs and preferences. Personalized nutrition involves tailoring dietary recommendations and functional food formulations based on an individual's unique characteristics, including genetics, lifestyle, and health goals. This trend is driving innovation in the industry as companies leverage advanced technologies, such as genetic testing and data analytics, to offer personalized insights into nutrition. By understanding individual nutritional requirements, functional food manufacturers can create targeted products that address specific health concerns, optimize performance, and enhance overall well-being. Consumers are increasingly seeking personalized nutrition solutions that align with their unique health objectives, recognizing that a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition may not be effective for everyone. This shift towards personalized nutrition is expected to fuel the growth of the global functional food market in the coming years.
