Dietary Supplement Testing Services Global Market Report 2024

The dietary supplement testing services market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.65 billion in 2023 to $2.91 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. The rise in the historical period can be credited to a heightened awareness of healthy foods and nutrition, a growing emphasis on an active lifestyle, an increased demand for dietary supplements, a greater need to validate nutritional information, and an upsurge in the prevalence of supplement use.

The dietary supplement testing services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.33 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to rising consumer awareness, the growing impact of urbanization and modern lifestyles, an increased demand for preventive healthcare solutions, a heightened focus on quality and safety, and a growing array of dietary supplement products. Prominent trends expected in the forecast period encompass continual technological advancements, stringent regulations governing dietary supplements, an augmented emphasis on quality control, an increased focus on safety and efficacy, and the adoption of innovative testing methodologies.

The anticipated growth in the dietary supplement testing services market is expected to be propelled by an increase in healthcare spending. Healthcare spending denotes the overall expenditure on healthcare goods and services within a specified timeframe, and a portion of these expenditures is directed toward conducting safety and efficacy testing for dietary supplements. This involves financing research studies and clinical trials to assess the potential benefits and risks associated with specific dietary supplements, contributing to the market's expansion. For instance, a report published by the UK-based Office for National Statistics revealed a 9.4% increase in healthcare spending in the UK between 2020 and 2021, both in nominal and real terms. Notably, spending on preventive care reached $45.72 billion in 2021, more than doubling from the previous year. Hence, the rise in healthcare spending is a key driver of the growth in the dietary supplement testing services market.

The growth of the dietary supplement testing services market is expected to be fueled by the increasing geriatric population. The term 'geriatric population' refers to individuals who are elderly, typically aged 65 and older. As the aging body has distinct needs and sensitivities compared to younger individuals, dietary supplement testing services play a crucial role in identifying potential contaminants, interactions with medications, or inappropriate dosages that could pose risks to older adults. According to a report by The Administration for Community Living (ACL), a US-based entity under the United States Department of Health and Human Services, the population aged 65 and older witnessed a 36% increase, rising from 39.6 million in 2009 to 54.1 million in 2019. Projections indicate that this demographic will reach 94.7 million by 2060, surpassing 80.8 million by 2040 and constituting 21.6% of the total population, compared to 16% in 2019. Therefore, the expanding geriatric population serves as a driving force for the growth of the dietary supplement testing services market.


Major players in the dietary supplement testing services market are adopting a strategic partnership approach to introduce dietary supplements into new markets. Strategic partnerships involve companies leveraging each other's strengths and resources for mutual benefits and success. An example is the partnership between HealthLoq, a US-based Blockchain-Powered Nutraceutical Information Platform, and UL Solutions, a US-based safety science company, announced in May 2022. This collaboration combines HealthLoq's blockchain-based transparency platform with UL's expertise in independent testing, inspection, and audit activities. The aim is to facilitate the launch of dietary supplements into new markets, ensuring manufacturers deliver quality and safety. The HealthLoq platform provides consumers with reliable, detailed information about specific nutraceutical products, contributing to the expansion of the dietary supplement testing services market.

The anticipated growth in the dietary supplement testing services market is expected to be driven by the increasing health consciousness. Health consciousness refers to the level of concern individuals have for actively maintaining their physical and mental well-being. As people become more aware of the potential health benefits of dietary supplements, there is a parallel increase in concern about their quality and safety. This surge in awareness leads to a higher demand for independent testing services to ensure that the supplements consumed are accurately labeled and free from harmful contaminants. For instance, a survey of 5,000 adults by Public Health England in January 2021 revealed that around 80% of adults over 18 have opted for a healthy lifestyle, with 40% choosing to eat healthily. Thus, the growing health consciousness is a key driver of the dietary supplement testing services market's growth.
