Medical Foods Market to Witness Massive Growth by 2020 - 2030

Medical Foods Market: Introduction
According to the report, the global medical foods market was valued at US$ 18 Bn in 2018 and is projected to grow at a rapid pace from 2019 to 2027. Medical foods are a special group of FDA-regulated products that meet the distinctive dietary needs or metabolic defects of a medical illness. The current opinion among the public is that medical foods have the therapeutic potential to prevent and treat a long list of disorders. However, a significant gap has been observed between that assumption and the current evidence in the medical literature. The prevailing belief is that it is mainly young people that use medical food products. Nevertheless, older adults are increasingly using medical foods, and studies show varying incidence, depending on the region, from about 7% to more than one-third. The distinctive nutritional requirements associated with a disease reflect the overall amount a healthy person requires to sustain life or preserve homeostasis, modified for the distinctive changes in the patient's nutritional needs as a result of the disease process's effects on absorption, metabolism, and excretion.

Shift to Enteral Nutrition to Drive Medical Foods Market
The nutrition administration has seen a change in the trend from parenteral feed absorption to enteral feeding (absorption through the gastrointestinal tract) methods such as intravenous administration. Enteral administration is better than parenteral administration due to low chance of contamination and physiological advantages such as retaining small intestine mass and pancreatic function. Nutrients or medical foods can be delivered to the body in various formats such as capsules or tablets instead of sterile liquids or rehydratable powders, owing to technological advances such as the availability of chemical constituents to allow microencapsulation.
