Expanding
Lifestyle Disorders to Drive the Market Growth
The lifestyle of
UAE citizens has resulted in mild to severe health issues, from chronic
ailments to a poor gut. In addition, the widespread use of processed and junk
food is the main cause of the prevalence of lifestyle disorders like obesity,
diabetes, cholesterol, etc. People are adjusting to the fast-paced way of life
and attempting to manage the stress brought on by lifestyle change, which has
led to an increase in the incidence of chronic diseases in the area. According
to a research, cancer, diabetes, autism, and genetic disorders are the four
most prevalent health issues in the United Arab Emirates. According to the
UAE government, 4,500 new instances of cancer are reported in the country each
year, and in Abu Dhabi, cancer was the third largest cause of death in 2012. Another
important disease in the United Arab Emirates is diabetes, which affected 19.0%
of people between the ages of 20 and 79 as of 2014. By 2021, the government is
expected to bring this figure down to 16.2%. The biggest contributor to the
rise in lifestyle problems in the nation has been the use of packaged foods and
beverages, high calorie counts, together with little to no physical activity. However,
the integration of nutraceutical goods into the general population's everyday
routine has been fueled by expanding awareness of leading a healthy lifestyle,
rising use of nutritional supplements for immunity building, and boosting
internal organ functions, etc. Further, functional meals are seen as having a
very favorable reputation with consumers, largely because of the additional
health and wellness advantages these products provide. The total growth has
been assisted by the rising elderly population, rising healthcare costs,
changing lifestyles, innovative food products, and expectations for higher
prices.
Surge in
Demand for Infant Nutraceutical
UAE has seen a
rise in the use of nutraceuticals in newborn diets. The use of functional foods
and nutraceutical supplements has grown as a result of consumer efforts to
prevent gastrointestinal illnesses. A significant amount of protein and other
dietary supplements are also obtained, supporting end-metabolism users and
assisting in the fight against a variety of acute and chronic conditions. For
instance, Carrefour kids drink yogurt, one of the many types of probiotic
supplements for kids. Additionally, the firm’s entry into the market of newborn
probiotic supplement goods like BioGaia Protectis probiotic drops, Synergy
Infabiol infant probiotic drops, Calmco Probiotic Drops, etc., had a positive effect
on the market's expansion in the ensuing years. Over the projection period, it
is anticipated that the growing senior population and rising healthcare costs
would support the expansion of the worldwide functional food business. Hence, the
rising demand for infant nutraceuticals is fueling the UAE Nutraceutical
Market.
Deficiency of
Vitamin D to Boost Market Expansion
About 90% of the
population in the UAE was found to have vitamin D insufficiency, according to a
survey conducted there. The government has launched several campaigns to inform
consumers about the various Vitamin D sources and how to maintain a balance of
necessary vitamins and dietary supplements in order to tackle this issue. In
order to ameliorate the existing situation of the people in the UAE, the
government has also requested that various food and beverage industries provide
various fortified juices, milk, and other dairy products with vitamin D.
Implementation
of VAT and Excise Duty is Limiting the Market Expansion
The tax system
for the goods sold in the UAE market has undergone substantial adjustments
owing to the UAE government. The government began charging an excise tax of
100% on energy drinks in October 2017. The UAE then introduced 5% VAT three
months after 5% VAT went into effect in January 2018. This had a detrimental
effect on the products, which led to a decline in consumer spending as market
prices rose for the goods.
