Global Dietary Fiber Market Overview
According to Global Market Monitor, the global dietary fiber market size is $2473.09 million in 2024 and is expected to grow to $4215.37 million by 2029.
Dietary fiber refers to the carbohydrates in plants that cannot be digested and utilized by the human body. It has become another nutrient after the six nutrients that people think. Although dietary fiber cannot be digested and absorbed by the human body, it has an important physiological role in the human body. Dietary fiber has outstanding functions in preventing human gastrointestinal diseases and maintaining gastrointestinal health. In addition, dietary fiber also has the function of lowering blood fat, lowering blood sugar, lowering cholesterol, promoting calcium absorption, weight loss, laxatives, preventing hemorrhoids, preventing cancer, and other functions.
Increased Health Awareness
With the improvement in living standards, the degree of refined food is getting higher and higher, the proportion of animal foods has greatly increased, and the intake of dietary fiber has been significantly reduced. This has led to an increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity, as well as some diseases related to dietary fiber, such as intestinal cancer, constipation, and intestinal polyps. With the improvement of health awareness, people are becoming more optimistic about healthy living and healthy eating habits, and they have a deeper understanding of the functional role of dietary fiber in human health. Therefore, the consumer demand for dietary fiber is growing rapidly, and the increase in people's demand for dietary fiber promotes the development of the industry.
Although dietary fiber is becoming more and more popular and widely used, there are still insufficient or misunderstandings about dietary fiber in some areas. First, there is a misunderstanding about the source of dietary fiber. Dietary fiber is not only found in rough-tasting foods, such as grains and nuts. Some foods with more delicate tastes, such as beans, radishes, citrus, etc., are also rich in dietary fiber. The second is the misunderstanding of the function of dietary fiber. While dietary fiber prevents the human body from absorbing harmful substances, it also affects the human body's absorption of protein, inorganic salts, and certain trace elements in food. Especially for teenagers and children in the growth and development stage, high-fiber foods should be eaten in moderation. In addition, there is a general lack of awareness of dietary fiber in developing countries. One reason is that people think that dietary fiber is expensive. Misunderstandings and insufficient understanding of dietary fiber have brought obstacles and challenges to the expansion of the dietary fiber market.
