The forecast of 17.7% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.2% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US by raising costs for diet products, as tariffs on glucomannan and green tea extract from China and Japan could impact weight-loss brands.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The increasing prevalence of obesity is expected to drive growth in the weight management supplements market. Obesity, characterized by excessive body fat, can negatively impact health.

Weight management supplements can help manage obesity by enhancing metabolism, reducing appetite, or boosting fat burning when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. For example, in September 2024, the National Health Service England reported that in 2022, 29% of adults were obese, and 64% were either overweight or obese, with the rates rising with age. Obesity rates were 36% for adults aged 55 to 64 and 35% for those aged 64 to 74. Thus, the increasing prevalence of obesity is driving the growth of the weight management supplements market.
