Market Definition

The global Diabetic Food Market size was valued at USD 11.25 billion in 2021 and is predicted to reach USD 19.38 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022-2030. Diabetic foods are dietary products with low carbohydrate and sugar content in order to control glucose levels in diabetic patients.

Diabetic products are aimed to minimize the symptoms of diabetes and the potential complications of a long-term elevation in blood sugar. Edible diabetic products are made with whole grains, brown rice, millet baked sweet potato, quinoa and oatmeal and can be consumed by the non-diabetic population to avoid occurrence of diabetes in the future.

Market Dynamics and Trends

An increase in the prevalence of diabetes along with the various other chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and obesity, is one of the major factors driving the growth of the diabetic food market. According to IDF Diabetes Atlas, there were 537 million people aged 20-79 years with diabetes in 2021 and this figure is predicted to reach 643 million and 783 million by 2030 & 2045 respectively.

Also, high consumption of junk food leading to health issues from food including saturated and trans-fats have pushed individuals to utilize diabetic food products more often. As per the American Diabetes Association, saturated fat raises cholesterol levels increasing risk for heart diseases, heart attack and stroke. More advertisements & awareness campaigns by the manufacturing companies raise health consciousness among the population.

Moreover, the introduction of new advanced products that include low-fat dairy products, sugar-free beverages & snacks, and low-calorie edibles boost the diabetic food market growth. For instance, Kate Farms introduced glucose support 1.2 plant-based, organic Nutrition Shake in February 2022 for U.S. diabetic patients. However, the relatively high product prices hinder market growth to some extent.

Also, low awareness regarding health benefits of these products, especially in developing nations restrains the uptake of diabetic food items. On the contrary, technological advancement, such as genetic and functional diabetic food coupled with rapid digitalization & thriving e-commerce industry, is to offer a wide range of products, creating ample growth opportunities for the diabetic food market in the coming years.

While in the Asia-Pacific diabetic food market is penetrating highly due to an increase in the number of diabetic populations along with chronic kidney disease and obesity in nations such as China and India.
