Lutein Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Demand for Dietary Supplements Drives Lutein Market

• The lutein market is growing thanks to the burgeoning dietary supplements market, which in turn is part of the larger trend in preventative medicine and supplementation.
• As consumers have come to rely on dietary supplements to shore up nutritional gaps or assist in managing a host of health complaints, they have come to play an outsized role in their diets.
• Lutein, known for its role in eye health, and now research suggests skin health and cognitive function, is a shining star for this emerging food category.
• The lutein-supplement category grew at a breakneck pace on the strength of a perfect storm of confluences: an aging world, greater awareness of the role that diet and supplementation can play in keeping our eyes healthy, and the explosion of lifestyle eye diseases.
• In the dietary supplement market, the eye health segment has been a major growth driver of lutein demand.
• With the ever-increasing consumption of digital devices in all age groups and professions and the accompanying worries about digital eye strain, exposure to blue light, and long-term vision health, the demand for eye health supplements has been skyrocketing with lutein as a primary or ancillary ingredient.
• The scientific evidence for lutein's health benefits for the macula and, in turn, in lowering the risk of AMD has assured consumers of lutein supplements.
• Furthermore, the focus on prevention has extended the target population for these supplements beyond the elderly to include young adults and even children, a group with significantly expanded market potential.

Increase in Demand for Lutein as a Natural Colorant

• The growing importance of lutein as a natural pigment is considered as one of the major factors boosting the lutein market, offering many lucrative opportunities across various industries, particularly in the food and beverage and cosmetics industry. This is largely due to the shift in focus of the global market towards natural and clean-label products, as customers become increasingly aware of food and personal care product composition.
• Lutein from the marigold provides a food-grade alternative to synthetic colorants – in line with the appetite for natural, plant-based ingredients.
• This shift is not a flash-in-the-pan but a core change in consumer behavior based on health, sustainability, and environmental concerns and is likely to underpin the long-term growth of the lutein market in the colorant segment.
• There is a market for lutein in the food and drinks sector as a natural yellow-to-orange colorant, which is replacing artificial colors that have fallen out of favor with health-conscious consumers.
• Its food applications include use in baked goods, dairy products, confectionery, beverages, and processed foods. The capacity of lutein to add a desirable yellow color while offering potential health benefits, particularly for eye health, creates a unique value proposition for food manufacturers.
• Thus, this dual functionality as a colorant and nutritional ingredient enables companies to respond to more than one consumer demand with a single additive, all the while making lutein a more attractive ingredient to add to product formulations.
• In addition, the good stability of lutein in different food matrices and processing conditions makes it suitable for different applications, which leads to the wide use of lutein in the food industry.
