Gamma oryzanol, a natural compound derived from rice bran oil, consists of a blend of ferulic acid esters of phytosterols, predominantly including ferulic acid, cycloartenol, campesterol, and beta-sitosterol. Renowned for its potential health advantages, gamma oryzanol is frequently utilized as a dietary supplement, boasting antioxidant properties and believed to offer various health-promoting effects such as cardiovascular support, inflammation reduction, and potential aid in muscle recovery and endurance.
The primary components present in gamma oryzanol encompass 24-methylene cycloartanyl ferulate, campesteryl ferulate, and cycloartenyl ferulate. 24-methylene cycloartanyl ferulate, a compound within gamma oryzanol, is recognized for its potential health benefits and is commonly employed in pharmaceuticals for its antioxidant properties, which may help mitigate oxidative stress and inflammation within the body. These components find application across various sectors including sports supplements, cosmetics, animal feed, and pharmaceuticals, and are distributed through both online and offline channels.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have influenced the gamma oryzanol market by increasing the cost of importing rice bran oil derivatives, extraction equipment, and refined phytosterol intermediates used in high-purity formulations. These higher costs have affected dietary supplements, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical applications, particularly in regions dependent on imported raw materials such as North America and Europe. Tariff pressures have also led to pricing challenges for premium-grade gamma oryzanol products. To mitigate these impacts, manufacturers are strengthening local sourcing of rice bran, investing in regional extraction facilities, and improving process efficiencies. In some cases, tariffs have encouraged domestic value addition and innovation in nutraceutical-grade gamma oryzanol production.

The gamma oryzanol market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.87 billion in 2025 to $1.99 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of dietary supplement consumption, rising awareness of cardiovascular health, expansion of rice bran oil processing, demand for natural antioxidants, growth of functional food markets.
The gamma oryzanol market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.49 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing preference for clean label supplements, growth of sports and fitness nutrition, rising aging population, expansion of preventive healthcare, increasing demand for plant-derived bioactives. Major trends in the forecast period include rising use of natural antioxidants in supplements, growing demand for plant-based nutraceutical ingredients, increasing application in sports nutrition products, expansion of functional cosmetic formulations, focus on high-purity and bioactive extracts.
The growing demand for natural and functional food ingredients is expected to propel the growth of the gamma oryzanol market going forward. Natural and functional food ingredients are components derived from natural sources that offer health benefits beyond basic nutrition. This demand is rising due to increasing consumer awareness of health and wellness, a surge in lifestyle-related diseases, and a preference for clean-label, nutrient-rich products. Natural and functional food ingredients such as gamma oryzanol improve the nutritional value of food products, support cardiovascular health, and provide antioxidant benefits while meeting consumer preferences for clean-label options. For instance, in May 2023, according to the Organic Trade Association, total organic sales in the US-including organic non-food items-reached $60 billion in 2022 and grew to a record $67.6 billion in 2023, reflecting substantial growth in the organic sector. Therefore, the rising demand for natural and functional food ingredients is driving the gamma oryzanol market.
Rising demand for natural cosmetic products is expected to drive the gamma oryzanol market going forward. Natural cosmetics are formulations made from plant-based, organic, or naturally derived ingredients designed to enhance beauty and personal care while minimizing synthetic chemicals. Their growing demand is driven by increased consumer awareness of health and environmental issues, a shift toward clean beauty, sustainable sourcing, and skepticism surrounding synthetic ingredients. Gamma oryzanol plays an important role in natural cosmetics due to its strong antioxidant and anti-aging properties, making it an appealing plant-derived ingredient for improving skin health and aligning with clean beauty principles. For instance, in 2024, according to the Soil Association, UK organic retail sales reached $3.22 billion (£2.43 billion), with organic product sales increasing by 4.7%, outperforming non-organic sales at 1.2%. Additionally, 73% of consumers preferred certified organic products. Therefore, rising demand for natural cosmetic products is driving the gamma oryzanol market.
Major companies in the gamma oryzanol market are developing high-purity, functional formulations to meet the growing demand for health-oriented nutritional solutions. For example, in July 2025, KRBL Limited, an India-based rice producer and food company, introduced India Gate Uplife, a health-focused edible oils brand offering functional blended oils with approximately 40% higher gamma oryzanol content compared to leading competitors. The product line includes variants such as "Gut Pro Oil" for digestive wellness and "Weight Watchers" for weight management, targeting health-conscious consumers. With this launch, KRBL aims to strengthen its presence in the health-focused FMCG sector and address the rising demand for functional, value-added edible oils. This development reflects the market's growing emphasis on high-purity functional ingredients such as gamma oryzanol and the strategic expansion of traditional agricultural companies into health-oriented consumer products.
