pune, India -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2018 -- Market Overview:
Gluten is a type of protein usually found in wheat, barley, and rye. It is basically the composite of two proteins: gliadin and glutenin, found as a protein component in food products. However, for the celiac and other gluten intolerant patients, it has an adverse effect often leading to abdominal bloating, gas, diarrhea, and vomiting, migraine headaches, and joint pain. Manufacturers have come up with innovative and new products prepared from rice, cassava, corn (maize), soy, beans, and chia; which are free from gluten.

Celiac disease is one of the primary drivers for the increasing demand of gluten-free food products. It is an autoimmune disorder, whereby the small intestine is unable to process the gluten present in certain foods such as wheat, barley, and rye. At present, the only effective treatment is a lifelong gluten-free diet. As a result, individuals are left with no choice but to use gluten-free food products, which provides ample opportunities for manufacturers to launch new gluten-free products across various product segments.

Increasing availability of gluten-free products in organized retail stores is an important factor leading to sales of the gluten-free food products. Companies are targeting various supermarkets and departmental stores to gain attention of customers by increasing the shelf space for products. Additionally, advertisement and promotional activities of gluten-free products in various retail chains through weekly flyers and circulars is supporting the sales of gluten-free products.

However, food-intolerant products are generally priced higher than normal food products. Although, gluten-free packaged foods are a healthy alternative for gluten-intolerant and celiac populations, their pricing can be unaffordable for the majority of consumers, which is considered to hamper the market growth over the review period.
