Market Definition
Omega 3 ingredients are naturally occurring polyunsaturated fatty acids and nutrients that are essential for optimal human health. There are three kinds of omega 3 ingredients, namely, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), alpha-linoleic acid (ALA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA are mostly extracted from fish and ALA is mainly extracted from plants sources such as seeds and nuts.
Middle East and Africa Omega-3 Ingredients for Pharmaceuticals Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Increasing Self-sufficiency in Domestic Meat or Poultry Production
During the last few decades, the demand for poultry across countries, such as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has increased promptly which eventually led the small, medium, and large domestic chicken meat producers to have close consultations and collaborations with the Saudi Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture (MEWA) to surge chicken and meat production in the upcoming years and decrease the country’s heavy dependence on imported chicken meat. The increasing preference for chicken having higher weight and meat maintaining its flavour, tenderness, and shelf life have led to increased imports of omega-3 associated feeds into the region. Thus, this factor increases the growth of the market.
- Rising Technological Advancements
Technological advancements and product innovation is anticipated to boost the market for omega 3 ingredients during the forecast period. For instance, DSM introduced new 3C technology to reinvigorate omega 3 supplements category on October 6, 2016. Furthermore, on June 9, 2015, Croda introduced Incromega DHA and approved by European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Additionally, Royal DSM collaborated with Evonik to manufacture omega 3 fatty acid products from natural marine algae for animal nutrition on March 8, 2017. This innovation will allow the production of omega 3 fatty acids for animal nutrition without using fish oil. This factor improves the market growth.
Opportunities
- Increasing Internet Usage in Promoting Health Awareness
Growing consumer awareness associated with the health benefits from the consumption of omega-3 supplements in developed and developing countries is a huge opportunity for the market. Dietary supplements are the ultimate choice for health-conscious consumers. To meet their recommended dietary quotas, people of several age groups consume dietary supplements. Omega-3 is used in several dietary supplements and is becoming extremely popular among consumers. The high indulgence of western lifestyle has led to an increase in the rate of consumption of dietary supplements across several developing countries. Thus, this boost the market growth.
- Rising Research Activities
Numerous research studies have developed a link between consumption of fatty fish and lowering of coronary heart diseases. For instance, fish oils are widely used as a supplement to balance the required dietary intake of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Furthermore, fish oil is normally recommended as a supplement product for people who suffer from myocardial infarction by the American Heart Association, World Health Organization (WHO), the National Heart Foundation of Australia and National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). Thus, this factor helps to create much opportunities for the growth of the market.
