Lutein Market Projected to Be Resilient by 2028

Rockville, MD -- (SBWire) -- 08/07/2018 --Lutein, a yellow pigment found in plants such as marigold, is basically a class of carotenoids. Carotenoids are natural pigments found in several fruits & vegetables. Lutein acts as an antioxidant and is also called "the eye vitamin." It supports the proper functioning of the eyes and promotes healthy vision. Lutein aids in upholding the Macular Pigment Optical Density (MPOD), which supports healthy vision. It acts as a 'internal sunglass' that absorbs blue light, which results in minimizing the damage to the human retina triggered by exposure to direct sunlight and several artificial light sources. Moreover, the intake of lutein through various dietary supplements leads to the growth of MPOD in the human eyes, which also reduces the risk of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

Besides eye care, lutein can also be used for the treatment of other health issues, for instance, it is capable of preventing several types of cancer, especially breast cancer, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and skin disorders. The global intake of nutritional & dietary supplements across the globe has been largely positive so far. Hence, the demand for lutein is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period.

Global Lutein market: Dynamics

A rise in the demand for lutein as a health supplement, its increasing usage as a natural colorant in food & beverage applications, as well as its usage as an additive for animal feed are among factors anticipated to fuel the demand for this ingredient in numerous consumer markets. Mounting customer awareness about the benefits of lutein intake, coupled with an increase in the number of health-conscious people, has led to an increase in the spending on superior lutein products, which is consequently driving the market. Growing eye-related diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and other age-related macular degeneration, which is likely to lead to vision loss, are among factors that are likely to bolster the growth of the market over the forecast period.
