The dysphagia supplement market growth is driven by increase in prevalence of dysphagia, rise in ageing population, and advancement in the formulation technologies. The increase in prevalence of dysphagia is expected to continue to drive the growth of the dysphagia supplements market. For instance, according to the International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative (IDDSI), 2023, about 590 million people have lived with dysphagia. In addition, the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in January 2023, reported that in hospitalized patients, approximately 14% to 18% of patients have symptoms of dysphagia. Therefore, rise in prevalence of dysphagia drives the demand for dysphagia supplements.
In addition, older people are more inclined to develop dysphagia which further fuels the demand for supplements such as thickened beverages and protein supplements to treat dysphagia. For instance, in October 2022, World Health Organization (WHO), estimated that the global population aged 60 years and over is expected to double by 2050 to reach 2.1 billion. Moreover, according to National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), older adults are more inclined to develop dysphagia due to various illnesses. Furthermore, increase in awareness about dysphagia supplements among patients and healthcare professionals has led to an increase in the number of patients seeking treatment for dysphagia.
However, the availability of alternative treatment options limits the adoption of these dysphagia supplements, which negatively impacts the market growth. For instance, swallowing therapies offered by speech and language therapists are more refined and effective to treat dysphagia. Furthermore, development of robot-assisted therapy and rise in telehealth and digital health platforms that provide virtual therapy sessions to treat dysphagia. Thus, the availability of alternative treatments for dysphagia negatively impacts market growth.
On the other hand, innovation in the product formulation for dysphagia supplements such as development of beverage thickener, and others are expected to create immense opportunities for the growth of dysphagia supplement market during the forecast period. For instance, in January 2023, Nestle India, a largest food and beverage company, has launched its food and beverage thickener for the dysphagia patients in India.
