Report Outlook

The global sports nutrition market was valued at USD 48.23 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.90% during the forecast period. Proper nutrition and diet are crucial for achieving optimal performance. Sports nutrition products provide numerous benefits, such as enhanced gains from training, faster recovery between workouts and events, maintenance of ideal body weight, reduced risk of injury, and consistent performance. The growing number of health clubs, fitness centers, and gyms, as well as the increasing adoption of various exercise programs in these facilities where dietitians offer guidance on sports nutrition consumption, is driving the market. For instance, in 2021, there were 32,270 health organizations in the U.S., and 4.5 billion Americans were health organization consumers, according to the International Health Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA).

Several factors drive the market, including the growing preference for healthy and active lifestyles. Additionally, the adoption of fitness as a central concept in the lives of younger consumers and the increasing acceptance of protein supplements are expected to drive growth. There is also a rising demand for nutritional products that contain plant-based ingredients and offer immunity-enhancing benefits. Moreover, manufacturers increasingly use social media platforms such as YouTube and Instagram to promote their products, which is expected to drive demand further.

The sports nutrition has been positively impacted by the increase in online sales of pharmaceutical and health products, as reported by a survey conducted by the United Nations Conference on Development and Trade and Netcomm Suisse eCommerce Association. The survey found that there has been a 9.0% increase in online sales of these products, which has played a role in driving the growth of the market.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the sports nutrition. On the one hand, it heightened people's desire to lead a healthy lifestyle, with 51.0% of global consumers expressing concerns about weight gain and decreased physical activity during the pandemic. It led to increased consumption of nutritious diets and dietary supplements, driving market growth. However, the market experienced a brief period of decreased sales at the beginning of the pandemic due to the temporary closure of gyms and health clubs and the suspension of sports events. Furthermore, reduced incomes prompted people to refrain from nonessential spending, impacting industry growth.

The increasing prevalence of obesity, which can lead to chronic diseases, is a major driver of the nutritional supplement market. Adopting sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy diets contributes to the rising number of people suffering from obesity. This growing concern about the prevalence of obesity has increased awareness about healthy lifestyles and nutritious food, which has driven demand for nutritional supplements.
