Key Market Trends

Nutritional Support for Metabolic Disorders is Expected to Have the Fastest Growth in the Route of Administration Segment

People suffering from metabolic disorders such as diabetes are at high risk of acquiring COVID-19 infection. According to the International Diabetes Federation, people with pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes and obesity are more prone to be infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus due to compromised immune systems in these individuals. Additionally, treating diabetic patients infected with COVID-19 would turn out to be difficult as the virus tends to grow immensely in elevated blood sugar levels. Controlling the blood sugar levels is of utmost importance in treating COVID-19 infected patients, and thus, nutritional support plays a vital role in this context, thereby aiding in the growth of the segment.

Furthermore, the rising burden of metabolic disorders is also increasing the demand for clinical nutrition. According to International Diabetes Federation, about over 425 million people are living with diabetes, and this number is expected to reach 700 million in 2045. Hence, the growing burden of metabolic disorders and the introduction of new products to the market are expected to fuel this segment. Also, the growing product launches are expected to propel market growth. For instance, as a result, in February 2020, Galen launched an innovative medical food PKU EASY Microtabs, for people living with the rare, inherited metabolic disorder phenylketonuria (PKU).
