What key factors are fueling the growth of the medical foods market?

The augmentation of the elderly population is notably aiding the expansion of the medical foods market. Aging at a molecular and cellular level is brought about by the accumulation of various biomolecular damages over time. This accumulation gradually leads to a decline in functional abilities, and heightens the risk of diseases and eventually, mortality. These alterations are neither linear nor constant and they have a distant relation to an individual’s chronological age. As individuals age, their reliance on specific nutritional foods escalates, particularly medical foods required to manage chronic and age-related diseases. For example, in October 2022, based on a report issued by the World Health Organization (WHO), a Swiss agency in charge of global public health, it is predicted that by 2030, one in six individuals will be 60 years of age or older worldwide. Expectedly by 2050, there will be 2.1 billion people around the globe aged 60 or older. As a result, this surge in the elderly population is anticipated to drive the growth of the medical foods market.
