Market Trends
One of the key factors driving the growth of the vitamin D market is the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in various nations. Vitamin D insufficiency is estimated to affect 8% of Americans, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Vitamin D deficiency leads to rickets in children and osteoporosis in adults. It's also linked to common malignancies, high blood pressure, and viral illnesses. Vitamin D is required for the development of skeletal structure and dental enamel in children. Vitamin D deficiency in newborns can lead to problems including development failure, irritability, rickets, and a higher risk of respiratory infections later in life.
A key driver driving the Vitamin D Ingredients market during the projected period is the rising demand for vitamin D ingredients in the cosmetic industry. For example, vitamin D's most significant practical application in the skin is as a mild-to-moderate anti-inflammatory used therapeutically as a cream in the treatment of diseases including psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo. As a result of the rising number of individuals suffering from psoriasis and eczema, creams containing vitamin D are becoming more popular, driving up demand for Vitamin D Ingredients in the future.
COVID-19 Impact on Vitamin D Market
Vitamin D is important not only for improving the human innate immune system but also for preventing it from becoming dangerously hyperactive. As a result, having enough vitamin D levels protects the patient against serious problems, including death, caused by Covid-19. As a result, the global need for vitamin D is projected to skyrocket as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic. Disruption of global logistics and supply chains, on the other hand, might be a stumbling block for this sector.
Market Segmentation Analysis
The global vitamin D market is segmented based on the analog such as vitamin D3 and vitamin D2. Vitamin D3 was the leading analogue on the market for vitamin D. Vitamin D3 is an important vitamin needed for bone health and osteoporosis and rickets aversion. Vitamin D3 has various roles and is used in the food, feed and healthcare industries. Excessive use of vitamin D3 has been linked to toxicity, thus its usage in the food and beverage sector is strictly regulated to avoid the risk of an overdose.
Vitamin D2 is used for the prevention of rickets among children. Vitamin D2 is also recommended for the treatment of osteomalacia, hypoparathyroidism, and hypophosphatemia. During the projected period, the D2 vitamin category is expected to increase at a CAGR of over 7.2%. Due to the growing demand for natural and herbal-based components, vendors are advised to base their product formulations on natural sources. In health-conscious countries, this is a key growth strategy. Vitamin D2 is widely used in the dietary supplement market, with the majority of consumers being babies and children having a 25 (OH)D level of less than 20ng/mL.
Further, the market is also classified based on the form as dry and liquid. The majority of the market is made up of dry vitamin D, which is more stable and has a longer shelf life. Vitamin D3, which is the most popular product, is widely produced in dry powder form for use as a premix in feed production and in nutritional supplements. The rise of the dry form has been aided by advancements in production processes, such as the spray dry technique, and a demand for extended shelf life. In end-user sectors such as medicines, feed, and cosmetics, beadlet and crystalline forms, which are seen as emerging perspective forms, are chosen.
Market Geographical Penetration
By region, the global vitamin D market is segmented into North America, South America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle-East, and Africa. In 2020, North America held a 26% market share, with the United States contributing the most. Around 42% of people in the United States are vitamin D deficient. Increased health among the millennial generation, a high proportion of vitamin D-fortified dietary supplements, obligatory vitamin D fortification laws, and pharmaceutical industry investments are all key growth drivers for the market. Because of its importance in boosting immunity, COVID-19 has raised the demand for vitamin D supplements in the region.
China and India were the APAC region's top contributors, accounting for nearly 51% of the region's income in 2020. During the projection period, the market is projected to be driven by rapid urbanisation, changes in lifestyle, western influence in food consumption, demographic profile, and attractive possibilities for industrial investments and expansions. The feed and pharmaceutical sectors are anticipated to generate the greatest growth in the APAC region, with a CAGR of XX% during the projection period. The rising frequency of osteoporosis among Japanese people is also boosting the demand for vitamin D supplements.
