Market Trends of Inositol Industry
Increasing Demand for Inositol in Pharmaceutical Industry
Increasing demand for products with inositol content among women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome worldwide is a major factor expected to drive the growth of the inositol market. The prevalence of diseases like PCOS in women has also led to extensive use of inositol in the manufacture of medicines to cure PCOS, as it aids in increasing progesterone, lowering testosterone levels, decreasing luteinizing hormones, diabetes, and inducing weight loss. Increasing demand from the pharmaceutical sector for medicine preparation that aids in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in infants and diabetes is another factor expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
The demand for inositol is also rising, as it helps cure hair fall, depression, and other health problems the current generation faces due to the prominence of unhealthy eating habits and lifestyles. Such benefits may increase the demand for supplements and propel the market. According to the new rules, dietary supplements produced or sold in the European Union (EU) can contain only EC-approved components. Since myoinositol supplements are now considered safe for human ingestion, this rule should increase their demand. Manufacturers' and researchers' approach toward increasing the use of inositol in cancer medicine preparation is another factor expected to further support the growth of the market during the forecast period.
North America Dominates the Market
North America is expected to continue registering significant demand for inositol during the forecast period. The high prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome, digestive disorders, and lifestyle-related diseases due to poor eating habits and high consumption of processed food is expected to drive the demand for inositol supplements. The market in the region is expected to witness significant growth, owing to the growing pharmaceutical sector and increasing government spending on the healthcare sector. Inositol is used to improve the growth of microbes, and yeast frequently uses additives found in food. It can be used to create nutritional supplements, either in the form of powder or cases. One factor that has driven the market's growth over the long haul is the diversity in how inositol is used. The growing number of people with deficiencies encouraged the development of inositols. As the market for healthy food items rises, and with significant players located in the region, North America is well-positioned to become the market leader. The presence of regional players operating in the countries offering innovative products is expected to boost the growth of the market.
