Increasing Demand for Plant-Based Supplements and Launch of Innovative Homeopathic Remedies fuel the Europe Homeopathy Market
Similar to plant-based foods, plant-based dietary supplements have gained huge popularity among consumers, which presents an opportunity for plant-based supplement suppliers in developing countries. According to Google Trends, the popularity of veganism ramped up sevenfold between 2014 and 2019. Consumers are giving up meat for two main reasons: perceived health benefits and ethical & environmental issues. Meat production requires intensive use of resources, especially land and water, as well as operations in meat slaughterhouses and production & processing facilities leading to the release of greenhouse gases. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic tarnished the image of the meat industry in countries such as Germany, as slaughterhouses were traced back to being the main point of transmission of SARS-CoV-2. The pandemic also shed light on poor working conditions in the meat industry. These factors led to severe effects on the sales of dietary supplements sourced from animals.The COVID-19 pandemic has also benefited the homeopathic remedies trend as consumers sought to boost their immunity levels by using these preparations. Natural ingredients used in these health products such as the high vitamin C content of baobab help improve and strengthen immune system function. The growing aging population is another factor driving the demand for plant-based dietary supplements; these individuals seek to boost their immune systems and overall health.
In addition to the rising preference for plant-based dietary supplements, growth strategies adopted by companies in the homeopathy market are expected to bring new trends into the market in the future. In April 2022, Dr. Batra's Clinic expanded its footprint in smaller towns and cities, and it is expected to introduce a homeopathy clinic network to 225 centers in the upcoming year. This would improve the accessibility of homeopathy medicines in untapped regions and developing countries. In October 2022, Kaps3 Lifesciences Pvt Ltd launched its “Kaps3 Homeopathy Division.” The company launched this product category on World Homeopathy Day.
