The diabetic foods market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $11.59 billion in 2023 to $13.19 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the increasing prevalence of diabetes, growing health consciousness among consumers, government initiatives and regulations promoting healthier food options, changing consumer preferences towards healthier alternatives, and the impact of marketing and awareness campaigns.
The diabetic foods market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.79 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to trends such as personalized nutrition, the growth of e-commerce, and the emphasis on clean label and natural ingredients in diabetic foods. Major trends expected in the forecast period include technological innovations, the expansion of e-commerce and online retailing, advancements in ingredients technology, the development of customized nutrition solutions, and the rising population with diabetes.
The diabetic food market is poised for growth due to the increasing prevalence of juvenile diabetes among children and youth. Type 1 diabetes, commonly known as juvenile diabetes, constitutes approximately 90% of diabetes cases in young individuals. The Mediterranean diet, recommended for those with type 1 diabetes, involves nutrient-dense foods such as fresh vegetables, oranges, plant-based fats, and fish. In 2021, over 1.2 million children and adolescents were reported to have type 1 diabetes, indicating a rising trend and a corresponding boost to the diabetic food market.
The diabetic foods market is expected to be driven by the escalating prevalence of obesity and associated health issues. Obesity-related problems, both physical and mental, are linked to excess body weight. Diabetic foods play a role in managing obesity and related health issues by offering low-sugar, low-calorie, high-fiber, and nutrient-dense options. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 22 states in the United States had an adult obesity prevalence at or above 35% in 2022, underscoring the urgency for healthier food choices and contributing to the growth of the diabetic foods market.
The labeling of food as "diabetic" poses a challenge to the diabetic food market. Concerns have been raised that such labeling might mislead individuals with diabetes into thinking that these products are essential for their health. Improvements in food policy aim to prevent companies from labeling food explicitly as diabetic or tailored for individuals with diabetes. This labeling issue has been a point of contention, with organizations such as Diabetes UK advocating for the removal of such labels over the past 30 years, potentially restraining the growth of the diabetic food market.
An emerging trend in the diabetic food market is product innovation, characterized by the introduction of various items such as low-calorie sweet beverages, sugar-free jellies, diabetic bakery items, and low-fat ice cream. Major beverage companies such as Coke and Pepsi are launching new products, contributing to the overall growth of the beverage category. The carbonated soft drinks (CSD) industry in India, for example, witnessed a 7% annual growth rate, with products such as Diet Coke and Coke Zero Sugar showing significant retail sales growth.
Leading companies in the diabetic food market are adopting strategic partnerships to launch innovative programs, such as "What Can I Eat?," catering to diabetic patients. The American Diabetes Association partnered with the Elevance Health Foundation to enhance the WCIE program, addressing the social determinants of health contributing to type 2 diabetes. This initiative aims to support sustainable behavioral changes and provide free nutritious foods to tackle core issues faced by the diabetes community.
