Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Probiotic Supplements Market

In the pre-pandemic period, the probiotic supplements market was mainly driven by the consumption of functional food & beverages and dietary supplements, and the high demand for protein-rich products. However, many industries faced unprecedented challenges after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The food and beverage manufacturers witnessed a slow growth in the initial phase of the pandemic due to the shutdown of manufacturing units and disruptions in supply chains. However, a shift in consumer lifestyle, a rise in preference for healthy dietary practices, and an increase in the health-conscious population have substantially promoted the demand for probiotic supplements. With increased consumer focus on immunity and wellness during the peak pandemic period, the demand for probiotics supplements also magnified. Many studies claim that the consumption of probiotic supplements can boost immunity, thereby reducing the risk of infections, including COVID-19. For instance, research conducted by experts from Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, identified that a mixture of probiotic strains—Streptococcus thermophilus DSM 32245 and Bifidobacterium lactis DSM 32246—is potent enough to reduce the risk of severe pneumonia. According to the same research, the high concentration of bacteria releases specific enzymes that modulate the immune responses of the host.
