The development of symptoms is usually slower and may occur many hours after eating the meal that causes intolerance. It is not uncommon to be intolerant to many foods or a group of foods. It is difficult to determine whether food intolerance is the cause of chronic sickness and, if so, which foods or chemicals are to blame. This food category contains gluten-free, lactose-free, diabetic food, and other foods that are advised for overcoming food sensitivity. Gluten-free foods are largely consumed by celiac sufferers, who are unable to digest the gluten found in wheat, barley, and other related grains. Lactose-free foods are preferred by lactose-intolerant people as they lack an enzyme required to breakdown milk sugar.
The market for food intolerance has developed significantly over the last decade, owing mostly to an increase in celiac disease and Crohn's disease cases, as well as increased awareness among health-conscious customers. According to Coeliac UK, celiac disease affects at least one in every hundred persons in the UK and Europe; however, only approximately a quarter of those affected are diagnosed. In contrast, the high cost of gluten-free products and a lack of food intolerance knowledge are stifling the market's growth. Furthermore, key market participants are active in product development in order to introduce superior taste and nutritional gluten-free food products.
The global food intolerance market is moderately fragmented, with significant food and beverage businesses accounting for the majority of market share. Product launch was a popular tactic used by market leaders to acquire a competitive advantage. Abbott Laboratories introduced Curate snack bars in February 2016, a new brand of gluten-free bars produced with non-bioengineered ingredients.
The food intolerance market is segmented on the basis of type, distribution channel, and geography. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into diabetic food, gluten-free food, lactose-free food, and other special milk formula. On the basis of distribution channel, the market is segmented into hypermarkets/supermarkets, convenience stores, online channels, and others.

The food intolerance products market has prospered as a result of medical developments that have studied and supplied a firm understanding of various immune system responses, allowing customers to make informed selections when purchasing food items. Furthermore, increased consumer preference for labelling and ingredient claims such as 'lactose-free' and 'gluten-free' has propelled the market for these food products.
Lactose-free food items have gained a significant proportion of the global market as the prevalence of lactose intolerance has increased.

Companies attempt to improve the taste, quality, and texture of their gluten-free products in order to distinguish them from competing alternatives.
Gluten-free meals have become more popular around the world, owing to an increase in gluten allergies and celiac disease, a sickness that causes inflammation in the small intestines and high gluten sensitivity. According to the clinical practice journal of the American Gastroenterological Association, the global prevalence of celiac disease is 1.4 percent, with celiac prevalence values of 0.4 percent in South America, 0.5 percent in Africa & North America, 0.6 percent in Asia, and 0.8 percent in Europe & Oceania.
