The rising prevalence of digestive issues is expected to drive the growth of the soluble fibers market in the coming years. Digestive problems refer to gastrointestinal disorders that impact the digestive system, commonly known as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Increasing consumption of ultra-processed foods is contributing to the growing incidence of digestive disorders, as these foods are high in additives, low in fiber, and clinically associated with gastrointestinal inflammation and dysbiosis. Soluble fiber supports digestive health and blood sugar regulation by softening stools and helping prevent constipation. For instance, in September 2025, according to the UK Health Security Agency, a UK-based government department, laboratory data indicated that between 2022 and 2024, Campylobacter cases increased by 27% (from 96.1 to 122 per 100,000 population), while Salmonella cases rose by 24.1% (from 14.5 to 18 per 100,000 population). Therefore, the growing burden of digestive disorders is fueling the expansion of the soluble fibers market.

Leading companies operating in the soluble fibers market are focusing on developing innovative offerings, such as soluble fiber supplements, to address increasing consumer interest in digestive health solutions. Soluble fiber supplements are dietary products containing soluble fiber that dissolves in water to form a gel-like substance within the digestive system, supporting improved digestion, blood sugar management, and cholesterol reduction. For example, in April 2024, Glucose Health Inc., a US-based manufacturing company, introduced Fiber Up drink mixes and gumdrops. These Fiber Up products are designed to offer consumers a convenient way to add soluble fiber to their daily diets. The formulations contain 100% soluble prebiotic fiber and are intended to promote metabolic health while maintaining appealing taste profiles.

In June 2025, MegaChem UK (Ltd), a UK-based distributor of specialty chemicals and functional food ingredients, formed a strategic partnership with Revelations Biotech to distribute its FOSLIFE range of prebiotic soluble fibers throughout the UK and Ireland. Through this collaboration, MegaChem seeks to enhance its functional nutrition portfolio and broaden the availability of science-backed soluble fiber ingredients that align with digestive health benefits and clean-label formulation trends. Revelations Biotech is an India-based supplier of biotechnology-driven functional ingredients, including enzymes, probiotics, and prebiotic soluble fibers manufactured using proprietary fermentation and enzymatic conversion technologies.
