What main drivers are fueling expansion in the iodine market?

The growth of the iodine market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing incidence of chronic health conditions. Such health conditions, which are long-term and often show slow progress, usually last more than three months. There are various chronic health conditions, including thyroid disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer, that have been seeing a rise in prevalence and result in iodine demand due to its pivotal role in fields such as medical imaging, pharmaceutical uses, and dietary supplements designed to control and prevent these diseases. As a crucial element in managing chronic diseases, iodine supports thyroid functions, regulates metabolism, boosts the immune response, and lessens inflammation, all contributing overall to enhanced health and resistance to disease. For example, the National Library of Medicine, a medical library based in the United States, estimated in January 2023 that by 2050, as many as 142.66 million Americans aged 50 or older are projected to be affected by at least one chronic illness. Thus, the increased prevalence of chronic diseases is stimulating the iodine market’s growth.
