Omega 3 Market & Omega 6 Market by Source, Applications, Geography Trends & Global Forecasts (2011 – 2016), Fatty Acids Market Research Report
The omega-3 and omega-6 acids form a part of major essential unsaturated fatty acids that cannot be synthesized by the body but are essential for its metabolism. Marine oils are expected to continue dominating the overall omega-3 fatty acids market. Among the various marine oils, fish oil concentrates are anticipated to witness significant growth, both in terms of volume and value.
With the huge market potential and the growing preference, the market is likely to witness considerable growth. The market is anticipated to continue penetrating the functional foods and dietary supplements arena. The growth of the market is also largely attributed to the technological developments that have made possible the incorporation of the originally unpalatable marine oils in a number of food and beverage applications. The variety of food and other products containing omega-3 ingredients are increasing continually at present.
