Market Growth Factors
The prevalence of chronic gastrointestinal diseases such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Crohn's disease, and gastroenteritis in Europe is rising which is expected to be a factor fueling the growth of the European probiotic dietary supplements market during the forecast period. Since the aging European population is predisposed to these GI diseases, the need for such treatments is expected to increase as well.
The market is further propelled by the shift in consumer preference from carbonated and high-calorie beverages to functional probiotic drinks. These changes are helped by the increased awareness among consumers regarding the health benefits offered by probiotics, including maintaining gut microbiome, diminishing inflammatory responses, alleviating mental health conditions, and strengthening immunity. The popularity of novel variants of probiotic products, characterized by exotic flavors and attractive packaging, has contributed to the growth of the probiotic market.
Additionally, probiotic fortified foods and drinks designed for prophylactic therapies and recovery from disease create an added incentive for the probiotic supplement market as part of a nutritional intervention strategy. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated a trend of consumers purchasing probiotic supplements from online retailers over physical retailers, which increased the availability of the probiotic products in the marketplace.
