What Are the Drivers Transforming the Meal Replacement Market?
The surge in obesity and diabetes rates is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the meal replacement market in the future. The rise in diabetes can be attributed to aspects such as ethnicity, aging, and lifestyle. Meal replacement items are predominantly used to manage diabetes through weight loss. However, due to their high nutrient and low-calorie content, they can also be used to combat obesity. For example, data from the UK's Office for Health Improvement & Disparities reveals that from March 2022 to March 2023, there was a 22% increase in the proportion of individuals with type 1 diabetes receiving all eight suggested care processes, and a 21% increase for those with type 2 diabetes, while the percentage achieving target HbA1c levels hit 37.9%, the highest figure ever noted by the National Diabetes Audit (NDA). Hence, the rising prevalence of obesity and diabetes is contributing to the expansion of the meal replacement market.
