What Are The Core Growth Drivers Shaping The Future Of The Infant Formula Ingredients Market?
The increasing attention towards neonatal health and nourishment is foreseen to propel the infant formula ingredient market. This surge in interest is a result of an effort to minimize toddler fatality rates, disease prevalences, and to enhance consistent physical and mental development. The escalating interest in toddler health and nourishment is hence generating a significant need for infant formula ingredients. These ingredients serve as efficient substitutes for breast milk, furnishing infants with ample nutrition. During early childhood, optimal nutrition via infant formula ingredients aids in full children's development, health, and growth, and boosts heathy progression and cognitive development in neonates. Additionally, these ingredients help decrease the likelihood of obesity and later life non-communicable diseases (NCDs). For example, as per the World Health Organization's (WHO) key facts, malnutrition is expected to link with 2.7 million children's death annually, constituting 45% of all child deaths. More than 820,000 lives of children under the age of 5 could be saved yearly if all newborns up to 23 months are breastfed adequately. Few children have access to nutritionally ample and safe supplementary food. Many nations report that less than a quarter of infants aged 6–23 months meet the standards of a diverse and frequency-proper diet. This means neonatal health and nourishment are gaining attention. To attend to this, the WHO is helping countries implement and monitor the 'comprehensive implementation plan on maternal, infant and young child nutrition'. Thus, the increasing awareness of neonatal health and nourishment is forecasted to push forward the infant formula ingredient market.
