Market Insights:                                                

Medical foods are specialized formulations intended as dietary supplement for specific diseases with unique nutritional needs, which cannot be met with the usual dietary pattern. Medical foods are custom made and are administered enterally. These products are majorly used to treat patients with post-traumatic stress syndrome, osteoporosis, end stage renal disease, infants with NEC, cancer, Alzheimers disease and others.

Strong market drivers such as growing prevalence of chronic diseases, increasing geriatric population and demand for enteral nutrition and personalized medicine further strengthens the market position of medical foods.
