As per a study conducted by the Celiac Disease Foundation, the current world prevalence of celiac diseases aggregated to 1.4% (based on blood tests) and 0.7% (based on biopsy results). The prevalence is the highest in Europe and Oceania, that is 0.8%, further followed by 0.6% in Asia, 0.5% in Africa, and 0.4% in North America. Females and children are the biggest contributors when compared to males and adults.

The government in developed economies is introducing various frameworks and initiatives to support the adoption of gluten-free products. For example, Drug Administration (FDA) and the US Food and subsidy allocations are the most popular government agencies, having different implementation strategies related to the market. In gluten-containing food products, gluten protein is responsible for preserving, managing the moisture content, and extending the shelf life of the products. The biggest gluten-free companies focus on research and development activities to inculcate advancement in technologies to attain the desired shelf-life. One of the recent technologies that help the manufacturer to improve the texture and shelf-life of the products is Microencapsulation. This technology has been used to improve the shelf-life of frozen biscuit dough, refrigerated pizza, frozen muffins, and biscuits. Moreover, the increasing number of large retail stores, including specialty stores, convenience stores, pharmacies, drugstores, has unlocked new platforms to distribute these products.

The avoidance of gluten-containing products and consumption of gluten-free products have emerged as a global trend, thus boosting the gluten-free market size. However, the restraints concerned with the gluten-free market is the lack of an adequate number of dietary fibers in gluten-free products, resulting in constipation and other ailments of the digestive system. For instance, gluten-free flours are often used to make pasta, pizza, bread, and other bakery goods and have a high glycaemic index and low fiber content.

The increasing awareness related to celiac and other digestive health issues among individuals further encourages them to choose gluten-free cookies and snack options.
