MARKET DYNAMICS
In recent years, health awareness among people has increased significantly. Due to people’s busy lifestyles and hectic work schedules, people cannot concentrate on their health, fitness, and regular diet. This has increased the prevalence of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, skin problems, digestive issues, and other diseases. Therefore, people are increasingly focusing on preventive healthcare products and prefer dietary supplements that provide enhanced nutritional benefits. Herbal supplements are natural and provide a large number of health benefits. Consuming herbal supplements improve immune health and provide an anti-microbial effect that helps prevent the risk of various disease and infections. Thus, the rising health awareness among consumers and the rising importance of regularly consuming herbal supplements are driving the growth of the herbal supplements market. However, some side effects such as constipation, abdominal pain, yellowish stools, and others of herbal supplements containing curcumin may restrain its adoption among consumers, hindering the market growth.
