Arachidonic Acid Market Analysis

Global arachidonic acid market is projected to grow with a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period (2019 - 2024).

  • The demand for ARA in dietary supplements is increasing, due to growing health awareness among consumers. With the growing outdoor sporting activities, including car racing and marathons, the possibility of physical injuries is expected to increase, which is likely to drive the market in terms of increasing applications, thus generating revenue.
  • The growth of the market is majorly due to the increasing penetration of infant food formulas and also increased usage in sports nutrition.
  • The ARA market is proportional to the increasing demand for omega-6 fatty acids in the food. This rise in demand is due to an increase in consumer awareness about the consumption of essential fatty acids and its associated benefits.

Arachidonic Acid Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Arachidonic Acid Market according to our research experts:

Application of ARA in Infant Formula Increases

The application of arachidonic acid in infant nutrition is expected to increase during the forecast period due to the rapid technological advancements and new patents recorded by the key players in the market. This is due to the need of omega-6 fatty acids in infants, as they cannot synthesize the required amount. Hence, the essential fatty acids are provided by the additional supplement of ARA in infant food. DHA and arachidonic acid (ARA), a 20-carbon fatty acid, are the key components that help the formation of cell membranes in infant's brains. The amount of DHA and ARA in breast milk is highly variable among different countries and is dependent on a mother’s diet. During cases where the infant is not receiving the required amount of ARA, the latter can be provided in the form of ARA-supplemented formula, and eventually through solid foods.

Arachidonic Acid Market1

North America holds the largest market share

The market is further segmented on the region basis into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Africa, and South America. North America holds the largest share of the arachidonic acid market in food applications followed by Europe and Asia- Pacific. The EU regulatory environment has supported the market growth in the region. This is due to the presence of many companies and intense R&D activities carried out with many new patents using ARA for infant formula, as well as sports nutrition and the growing fertility rate in the North American, especially in Mexico, enables for the market growth for the ARA in infant formula. The recent trend of using ARA for curing diabetes is expected to contribute to the market growth in other North American countries.
