The enteral and parenteral medical nutrition market size is projected to reach US$ 32,408.02 million by 2031 from US$ 18,377.13 million in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.3% during 2023–2031. Specific formulations and plant-based nutritional products are likely to serve as key trends in the market.

Enteral and Parenteral Medical Nutrition Market Analysis

The growth of the market is mainly fueled by the growing investments from international players, improving government support in countries such as China, supportive initiatives and nutrition research, and advancing healthcare infrastructure. The macro and micronutrient formulations of enteral and parenteral nutrition and their applications vary based on different diseases, such as cancer and gastrointestinal diseases. Energy-dense formulae (>1 kcal/ml) are prescribed to increase calorie delivery in patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction. A rise in the number of people turning to plant-based food causes the demand for plant-based nutrition products worldwide. The Innova Consumer Survey 2020 revealed that diet variety, health, sustainability, and taste are among the most important reasons why people consider plant-based alternatives. Companies (Kate Farms, Functional Formularies, and Real Food Blends) in the market anticipate that a rising focus on healthy foods will change into a preference for healthier nutrition products. As a result, companies have developed more natural and plant-based enteral products. Moreover, the rising geriatric population, growing incidence of chronic diseases and neurological disorders, and product innovations by the market players are anticipated to support the market growth.

Enteral and Parenteral Medical Nutrition Market Overview

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data, preterm birth in the US accounted for 10% of all births in 2020 and reached 10.5% in 2021, recording a yearly rise of 4%. According to the July 2022 data of the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, the prevalence of undernourishment increased 9.3% in 2020 from 8.0% in 2019; it again jumped to 9.8% in 2021. Similarly, as per a study titled “A multi-center survey on hospital malnutrition,” published in 2021, about 33% of patients in US hospitals were either malnourished or at nutritional risk, and approximately 11–45% of hospital patients and home care settings patients in England suffered from malnutrition. Thus, the enormous burden of malnutrition in children and adults, along with a high number of preterm births, fuels the demand for enteral and parenteral medical nutrition products, which in turn stimulates the growth of the market.

Enteral and Parenteral Medical Nutrition Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Number of Gastrointestinal Diseases to Favor Market Growth

Bowel obstruction, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, short bowel syndrome (SBS), and certain cancers are some examples of gastrointestinal diseases. As per the “Worldwide Prevalence and Burden of Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders, Results of Rome Foundation Global Study,” published in January 2021, functional gastrointestinal disorders have affected more than 40% of people across the world. Research conducted by Crohn’s & Colitis UK confirms that ~1 in every 123 people in the country had either Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis in 2022, accounting for ~0.5 million people living with IBD in the UK. Moreover, SBS occurs in ~3 per 1 million people yearly. Patients with gastrointestinal diseases are at an increased risk of nutritional degradation. They may also experience nutritional deterioration due to therapeutic dietary limitation and loss of appetite caused by anorexia or altered nutritional requirements, which can be due to the disease itself. Hence, medical nutrition is recommended for gastrointestinal disease patients as these patients cannot ingest food. The enteral and parenteral routes are ideal to provide them with essential nutrients. Therefore, the rising cases of gastrointestinal diseases drive the growth of the enteral and parenteral medical nutrition market.

Growing Strategic Initiatives by Companies

Companies operating in the enteral and parenteral medical nutrition market continuously focus on strategic developments, which help them advance their sales, enlarge their geographic reach, and improve their capacities to cater to a greater than existing customer base. Some of the noteworthy developments in the market are mentioned below:

  • In January 2023, Nutricia introduced Fortimel Plant-Based Energy, which is the first plant-based, ready-to-drink oral nutritional supplement. The product is particularly designed to fulfill the nutritional needs of malnourished individuals or individuals at risk of malnutrition due to illness. With this launch, the company builds on Danone's (parent company) capability in plant nutrition to grow its Fortimel portfolio.
  • In March 2022, Vygon acquired Macatt Medica (a distribution company located in Peru). Macatt Medica delivers most of Vygon’s products in Peru, including a variety of enteral nutrition products. With the acquisition, Macatt Medica became an entirely owned subsidiary of Vygon, assisting the latter's operations in South America.

Therefore, the development of advanced products targeting numerous health issues and strategic moves allow companies in the market to create new or better products and new businesses to remain competitive in the market. Such strategic growth initiatives provide significant growth opportunities in the market.
