The size of the global nutraceutical excipients market is expected to be worth USD 3.91 billion in 2024 and grow at a CAGR of 7.30% from 2024 to 2032 to achieve USD 6.87 billion by 2032.
Nutraceutical refers to substances that use standard or pharmaceutical grade nutrients. The Nutraceutical Excipients market is growing rapidly due to demand from many regions of the world. They are most used as pharmaceutical formulations and food additives approved by the US FDA under the Food and Cosmetics Act. Nutraceutical excipients are bioactive compounds that are used to enhance the bioavailability of nutraceuticals. Excipients often have a role in medical formulations and help improve the drug's function in the recipient's body. Nutraceutical is a mixture of nutritional and pharmaceutical products. It is a food or part of a food that plays an important role in modifying and maintaining normal physiological functions that keep humans healthy. Excipients are inert pharmaceutical ingredients that are used in product formulations. It can perform a variety of functional functions in medicines. It is used in the manufacture of amino acid-based nutraceuticals and protein-based nutraceutical products. Nutraceutical products contain a variety of compounds that are unstable to light, heat, alkaline pH, oxygen, and high humidity. They can also have bulk density, poor flow, and variable particle size distribution. The properties of these unstable compounds are controlled by incorporating a variety of nutraceutical excipients such as diluents, fillers, binders, disintegrants, flavorings, coatings, sweeteners, colorants, lubricants, etc., while producing various types of supplements such as capsules, powders and tablets, and liquid syrup. Increasing demand for nutraceuticals is supposed to continue to be a major driver of market boom in the coming years.
Additionally, advances in nanotechnology that impart new functions to excipients are expected to have a significant impact on the nutraceutical excipients market. Excipient multifunctionality is predicted to be a new trend that could create untapped opportunities in the nutraceutical excipient market in the future. Increasing consumer awareness of health and fitness combined with the addition of nutraceuticals to the pharmaceutical and food and supplement industries and increasing disposable income in emerging countries are factors estimated to drive market growth of nutraceutical excipients in the coming years. It has also contributed to the growth of the market as the incidence of lifestyle-related diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and blood pressure, has increased. However, due to the busy lifestyle and increasing medical costs, the amount of nutrients consumed by the population is less than necessary. The low nutritional intake is due to the consumer's busy lifestyle and high medical costs. It also presents significant opportunities for a variety of pharmaceutical fields as technological advances for the development of functional foods increase. The expansion of the wellness industry is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global nutraceutical excipients market size. The high use of additives with multifunctional properties is seen as an emerging trend among key players, with increasing government initiatives and awareness campaigns creating new growth opportunities for nutraceutical excipients market growth. Increasing awareness of the health benefits of nutraceutical excipient products is estimated to drive growth in the nutraceutical excipients market demand. In addition, the development of multifunctional excipients to obtain the mixing benefits of massive receptors will support the growth of this market. In addition, technological innovations are being made to develop molecules that improve nutritional efficiency. The global nutraceutical excipients market is foreseen to grow as consumer awareness of disease prevention and control through the use of functional foods increases. Functional food innovation and new ingredients will drive the growth of this market in the future.
Declining returns on R&D investments and high registrations and clinical trials limit market growth prospects. Protecting the nutritional value of nutraceuticals are some of the key challenge’s players face. Also, the reduction in spending on research and development activities and the high costs associated with clinical trials are determined to slow the growth of this market in the coming years. Furthermore, the cost of demonstrating the effectiveness of an excipient through clinical trials is relatively expensive and can be a major obstacle to the development of these excipients.

The dry sector is estimated to occupy the majority of the market by 2020.
The binders registered the significant portion in 2019, trailed by fillers and thinners. Binders are increasingly used by manufacturers of dietary supplements, as these excipients are formulated to "bind" powders, granules and other dry ingredients to act as adhesives that give them the necessary mechanical strength.
Probiotics are good yeast and bacteria that are beneficial to consumers because they improve digestion and intestinal health, improve immunity, increase nutrient absorption, and reduce the likelihood of food allergies.
The Asia Pacific region is likely to dominate the global nutraceutical excipients market with an increase in the population's disposable income and augmented demand for improved nutritional foods and beverages that will support the growth of this market. The Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest growing market, especially in countries such as India and China, due to the increasing health and nutrition development activity in the region. The huge population of the region is also determined to be a major factor in the growth of the market. The demand for fortified nutritional foods and beverages is increasing in the region. North America has had significant market share and is foreseen to grow with remodeling activities and changing trends in healthcare. North America is expected to occupy the second largest market share in the global nutraceutical excipients market due to the growing consumption of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements in the region. Consequently, these aspects are anticipated to fuel the demand in the global nutraceutical excipients business over the envisioned period.
