Drivers & Restraints:

Heavy Investments in R&D to Boost Omega-3 Fatty Acids Market

Continuous technical advancements that improve the delivery and absorption of fatty acids in the body are fueling the market's expansion. Attributed to its bioavailability and variable absorption rate, the manufacture of lipid-based supplements remains a difficult task. Several studies have suggested that many factors might affect the body's ability to absorb omega fatty acids. The market's major companies are pouring money into research & development to create technologies that will boost omega-3 bioavailability in the body. Pharmako Biotechnologies, for example, released a novel AquaCelle self-emulsifying medication delivery system in October 2019.

Furthermore, processing techniques that allow omega-3 to be extracted from new sources will increase demand for the product. Furthermore, attempts to enhance the organoleptic qualities of fatty acids isolated from marine sources are projected to support market expansion in the future years.

However, processing related challenges and organoleptic properties may hinder market growth.
