Global Oncology Nutrition Market Is Expanding Rapidly With Nestle Health Science Launching a Clear Nutritional Drink ‘Boost Soothe’, Specifically Designed For Cancer Patients
Oncology
nutrition describes the combination of diet and natural remedies for patients
diagnosed with cancer. The reason this term has been chosen is because of the
large emphasis hospitals have placed on nutrition over the past few decades.
Nutrition is simply the best way to ensure that our bodies are as healthy as
possible at all times. Unfortunately, our diets have changed very little over
the years, if at all. This has led to a situation in which many individuals
suffering from various diseases including cancer are getting sicker because
they are not receiving the proper nutrients that they need on a daily basis
Increasing
prevalence of chronic disease cancer, diabetes, and CVD, and lifestyle
disorders is expected to drive growth of the global cell-based assay market
during the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO),
in 2018, around 9.6 million deaths were attributed to cancer, of which 2.09
million cases were lung cancer. . According to the World Cancer Research Fund
(WCRF), in 2018, around 2 million new cases of breast cancer were recorded
across the globe. According to the U.S. Breast Cancer Statistics, 1 in 8 U.S.
women, around 12%, is expected to develop invasive breast cancer over the
course of their lifetime. Oncology nutritionists specialize in helping patients
develop a diet plan for good nutrition. The main objective is to improve the
overall health of the cancer patient, help reduce the risk of cancer by keeping
them healthier during treatment, and combat side-effects. Hence, such factors
are expected to drive growth of the global oncology
nutrition market. Furthermore, the advent of novel oncology nutrition
products is expected to propel the global oncology nutrition market growth in
the near future.
High cost
associated with premium nutrition products for oncology is expected to restrain
growth of the global oncology nutrition market. Among regions, North America is
expected to witness significant growth in the global oncology nutrition market.
This is owing to a high prevalence of cancer and the availability of robust
healthcare infrastructure across the region. Furthermore, Asia Pacific is
expected to register a robust growth rate, owing to increasing investment in
healthcare infrastructure in the region.
Key
companies involved in the global oncology nutrition market are Abbott
Laboratories, Mead Johnson & Company, LLC, Nestle S.A., Victus, Inc.,
Fresenius Kabi AG, Global Health Products, Inc., B. Braun Melsungen AG, Meiji
Holdings Company, Ltd., Hormel Foods Corporation, and Danone S.A.
For
instance, in September 2019, Nestle Health Science, a division of Nestle S.A.,
launched BOOST Soothe clear nutritional drink, specially designed for cancer
patients.
