Sugar Substitute Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Awareness About Negative Health Impacts Due to Over Consumption of Sugar Drives Sugar Substitutes Market

• Dissatisfaction with the negative health consequences of consuming excess sugar is the most salient market factor driving the growing demand for sugar substitutes. As awareness increases, consumers demand sweet flavors that are devoid of the negative health consequences associated with added sugars.
• Consuming too much sugar has been identified as a risk factor for many chronic health conditions, particularly two that continue to afflict the population at increasingly financially unsustainable rates for the healthcare system: obesity and type 2 diabetes.
• Sugar is believed to contribute to weight gain because added sugar calories are often stored as fat, which is linked to not only obesity but also such complications as cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, and musculoskeletal disorders.
• For people who already have the condition, reducing sugar intake is essential to help maintain blood glucose at stable levels and thus avoid further complications. As they know from experience, sugar substitutes can have an important role to play in food and drink if they can add sweetness but avoid spiking blood glucose.

Rising Demand for Natural and Organic Products

• Natural and organic products are increasingly crucial in the increasingly important sugar substitute market. Health- and environment-conscious consumers are shifting their sweetener preferences away from synthetic sweeteners and refined sugars while seeking out more natural and organic substitutes. Just as the dedicated sugar substitutes market grows, so does the innovation and introduction to the market of natural and organic forms.
• Those sweeteners that are 'natural'– such as stevia, monk fruit extract, and allulose – are selling briskly, with sales climbing and market share accelerating. They offer the low‑calorie sweetness a 'diet' product craves and the easy candy vibe of a clean-label health­seeker.
• The naturalness of such all-natural sweeteners is further enhanced by their organic certification, which will please consumers who are also interested in 'good, well-sourced, good for the environment' type of products. This will prompt manufacturers of food and beverage products to reformulate their existing ranges and develop new products with such all-natural sweeteners. Interestingly, this will indicate new market segments pairing the two product attributes' natural' and 'functional'.
