LUTEIN AND LUTEIN ESTERS MARKET OVERVIEW

Global lutein and lutein esters market size was USD 0.19 Billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 0.35 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period.

 Lutein is a carotenoid, which is a type of pigment found in plants. It is responsible for the yellow and orange colours in various fruits and vegetables. Lutein is particularly abundant in leafy green vegetables, such as kale, spinach, and broccoli, as well as in marigold flowers.

Lutein is known for its antioxidant properties and is often referred to as "the eye vitamin" because it is found in high concentrations in the macula of the human eye. The macula is responsible for central vision and is essential for tasks like reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Lutein plays a crucial role in maintaining eye health and protecting against age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. It helps filter harmful high-energy blue light and neutralizes free radicals, which can cause oxidative damage to the eyes.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Hamper the Demand of Lutein and Lutein Esters to Market Growth

The COVID-19 pandemic has had various impacts on different industries and sectors, including the production and availability of certain dietary supplements like lutein and lutein esters. The pandemic has caused disruptions in global supply chains due to restrictions on transportation, trade, and manufacturing. These disruptions could affect the sourcing and availability of lutein-rich ingredients, such as marigold flowers, which are used to extract lutein and produce lutein esters. 

LATEST TRENDS

Research on Lutein and Eye Health will Propel Market Growth  

 Ongoing studies continue to explore the relationship between lutein and eye health. Recent research suggests that lutein supplementation may have a protective effect against blue light-induced damage to the retina and could potentially help reduce the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Additionally, studies are investigating the potential benefits of lutein for conditions like diabetic retinopathy and cataracts.
