Driver: Growing demand for dietary fiber supplements


According to IOM, functional fiber “consists of isolated, non-digestible carbohydrates that have positive physiological effects in humans.” Therefore, it has been observed that many supplements consist of dietary and functional fibers. From the past few years, the supplement industry has grown manifold. Increasing health awareness among consumers around the world combined with sensitivity toward nutrient-rich products have been some of the major driving factors uplifted the growth supplement industry. This has helped to upsurge the demand for dietary fiber supplements from the past few years as a significant means of consumption of dietary fibers.


Restraint: Saturated water stability and reactivity


Humans unable to digest dietary fibers owing to the lack of required enzymes in the digestive tract. More specifically, dietary fibers are resistant to hydrolysis. As dietary fibers remain undigested, they surpass via body almost unchanged and can’t be utilized as a source of energy. These properties of fibers are helpful in the physiological roles that they play. While the same saturated water stability and least reactivity create a barrier when the dietary fibers are being used as ingredients. This characteristic can lead manufacturers to incorporate dietary fibers as an ingredient, which is expected to act as hindering factor in the growth of dietary fibers market.


Opportunity: Growing applications in the form of fortified snacks, dairy products, and meat products


Snacks is one of the popular food categories and found wide array of products with various functional ingredients and it has been observed that, consumers are preferring healthy-snacking items that can provide nutrition and functional benefits. Hence, this segment has generated and expected to continue generate huge opportunities for the dietary fibers market in the next few years. Apart from this, it has been also observed that flour-based products, dairy products such as yogurt and cheese have been widely accepted by health-freak consumers around the world.


Challenge: Changing standards and guidelines across regional regulatory bodies


The definition of dietary fibers changes from one country to other, based on regulations in that particular country. For instance, in the United Kingdom, dietary fiber is defined by chemical properties and digestibility, however in the United States, ingredients that can be fermented in the colon are considered as dietary fiber. France's definition for dietary fiber is aligned with Codex's. In that, it considers the composition and polymerization of carbohydrates and their physiological properties. This can create challenge for international food and ingredients manufactures who want to sell and market their products on the global platform.
