The soluble dietary fibers market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow from US$ 224.13 million in 2021 to US$ 277.33 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.1% from 2021 to 2028.
The use of soluble dietary fiber is rising fairly in beverages and drinks as it shows better dispersibility in water in comparison to insoluble fiber. Additionally, the incorporation of soluble dietary fiber in beverage formulations helps improve the overall physical and chemical properties as the beverage particles get uniformly distributed; enhance the stability; and prevent precipitation and stratification. Such functional beverages promote satiety, help in weight management, and minimize the need to the intake other high calorific foods. Different types of soluble fibers such as grains and multi-fruits, pectins, β-glucans, and cellulose beet-root fiber, can be used in preparation of beverages. For instance, as per an article published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), oat fiber can be effectively used in preparation of milk shakes, instant type-breakfast drinks, fruit and vegetable juices, iced tea, sports drinks, cappuccino, and wine. An article published by PreScouter” Natural Replacements for Sugar in Beverages” in April 2018, stated that the soluble fiber, inulin, is considered as a perfect ingredient which can be used in instant beverages, soy drinks, and flavored waters, especially “functional” beverages. Inulin possesses high solubility in water along with providing extra strength to body. Inulin is considered as an ideal sugar replacer in low-calorie beverages. Similarly, an article published by FoodIngredientsFirst in April 2020, represented that soluble fibers and natural flavors have grown indispensably in the sweeteners market, attributable to significant shift toward sugar-reduced foods as well as enhanced mouthfeel, texture, and sweetness. The rising inclination toward replacing sugar with artificial sweeteners to improve texture, taste, and nutrition has driven the demand for soluble dietary fibers such as chicory inulin. Chicory inulin possesses a sweetness of approximately 10% in comparison with that of sucrose and has the capability to replace sugars in 1:1 ratio in many applications. Similarly, Litesse Ultra polydextrose is another soluble fiber, which can effectively substitute the lost texture and mouthfeel by reduction of sugar. Similarly, prebiotic dietary fibers, possessing high solubility in water, are significantly used in beverage formulations to promote the digestive health. For instance, barley, which is composed of –20 grams of beta-glucan per 100 grams, is significantly used as a popular cereal grain to produce beer. It contains 2. Beta glucan (β-glucan) is a type of soluble fiber which is known for several functional and bioactive properties and helps to minimizes the risk of dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obesity. Companies such as Ingredion is involved in offering NUTRAFLORA soluble prebiotic fiber, which enhances the flavor of beverages along with acting as an effective sugar substitute. Similarly, Fibersol—a joint venture between Archer Daniels Midland Company; Matsutani Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; and Matsutani America—is involved in providing low-viscosity soluble prebiotic dietary fiber, which helps increase the fiber content and enhance the nutritional profile of different types of beverages such as juices & fortified waters, shakes & smoothies, protein & nutritional, yogurt & dairy-based, coffee & tea, sports & energy, and carbonated & alcoholic. Hence, the soluble dietary fiber acts as an effective sugar replacement and can also be used as a prebiotic fiber in beverage formulations.
In the MEA region, Turkey, South Africa, Iraq, and Israel are among the major countries with high number of COVID-19 confirmed cases and deaths. According to the International Finance Corporation, the COVID-19 pandemic has a severe impact on the economy of the Middle East & Africa which has led to decline in oil production, tourism, and remittances. The quarantine measures implemented for sanitary purposes in the region have led to standstill of several activities across diverse economic sectors. The MEA region comprises many growing economies, which are prospective markets for soluble dietary fibers vendors. The pandemic has significantly slowed down the growth of soluble dietary fibers market in the region due to volatility associated with the prices of raw materials such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. However, the shift in consumer dietary patterns is expected to promote the demand for soluble dietary fibers in the regional market.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Middle East & Africa soluble dietary fibers market. The Middle East & Africa soluble dietary fibers market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
