Saudi Arabia Dietary Supplements Market Research Report, 2027

Less physical activity, more desk jobs, working from home, etc., are some of the reasons why people require a healthy diet.

The rising deficiencies and the increase in chronic diseases worldwide are giving rise to dietary supplement demand. Moreover, taking extra dietary supplements can also increase the risk factors for individuals. Therefore, the dietary supplements come with the instructions mentioned in their packaging. When the daily diet does not provide enough nutrition, dietary supplements are often recommended.

According to the Actual Market Research report titled, "Saudi Arabia Dietary Supplements Market Overview, 2027," the Saudi kingdom's dietary supplement market is examined and observed by considering different segments and aspects that are supposed to maintain the elasticity. Various elements like environmental issues, governmental guidelines towards the health of citizens, etc. The positive impact on the dietary supplements market was at the time of COVID-19 when the death rate was occurring with rapid growth in the first wave of the pandemic. Because of the pandemic's spread, public awareness about maintaining good health is rapidly increasing. This awareness of health consciousness increased the sales of dietary supplements.

Moreover, the dietary supplement segment type has been categorized into vitamins, minerals, proteins, botanicals, probiotics, etc., where vitamin supplements are expected to dominate the Saudi Arabian market with a CAGR of over 8%. Vitamin supplements are costly because they are necessary for health and growth. Moreover, the rising popularity of vitamin deficiency among Saudi Arabian citizens also increases the demand for vitamin-based supplements. However, botanicals show the second highest market attractiveness because of the increased demand for herbal supplements and the increased application of various herbal extracts with other ingredients in different food products to improve flavour.

The formulation type segment is an aggregate of tablets, capsules, powders, and liquids. Tablet formulations are the market leader in this segment. The tablet formulation has the largest share and is expected to grow to more than 7.5% CAGR because of its rising preferences for portability and single-serve convenience. In addition, cost-effectiveness, easy packaging techniques, and higher shelf life further augment the demand for supplements in tablet form. Following tablets, capsules are the second most in the market. The capsule formulation contains the dietary medicine on the outer shell, which helps it work faster than a tablet.
