"There is a rising demand from the millennial and Gen Z populations for functional beverages—from enhanced water to nutrient-enriched juices and other beverages," said Smriti Sharma,Chemicals,Materials and Nutrition Senior Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. "Creating functional beverages with benefits that resonate with consumer interests is a challenge,and ingredient manufacturers are striving to achieve it. With increasing preference for spoonable and drinkable yogurt among consumers,the demand for inulin and FOS is expected to increase."

Sharma added: "The shift in consumer demand is driving product formulators and ingredient manufacturers to rethink product-differentiating strategies with supportive scientific claims and evidence. Furthermore,ongoing deep research and understanding of gut health in stress signaling,inflammation mitigation,and satiety have encouraged ingredient manufacturers to explore novel prebiotic ingredients,and this is expected to result in rapid development in the future."

The need for balanced nutrition with a smart choice of nutrients that sustainably support inner defenses will drive the demand for health ingredients in the next four to five years. This presents lucrative growth prospects for market participants,including:

Increasing consumer awareness supported by clinical evidence on prebiotic benefits will augment ingredient growth: It is important that all stakeholders,i.e.,manufacturers,regulators,and scientists,collaborate to develop effective and evidence-supported prebiotic ingredients capable of speedy approval.

Finding novel sources of prebiotic ingredients is necessary and has future growth potential: With novel ingredients witnessing an uptick in the prebiotics market,it is important that these ingredients are proven to be beneficial to gut health and have superior biological effects.

Need for low-calorie and sugar-reducing solutions will boost prebiotic ingredients: With the growing need for low-calorie solutions,prebiotic ingredient manufacturers must partner with product formulators to showcase the capability of prebiotics as an effective sugar alternative.
