Overview


According to FutureWise analysis the market for human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) in 2023 is US$ 0.23 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 1.22 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 22.92%.

Human Milk Oligosaccharides are a type of complex carbohydrate that is found naturally in human breast milk. They are composed of a chain of simple sugar molecules and are highly diverse, with over 200 different types of HMOs identified to date. HMOs are not present in cow's milk or infant formula, and their unique composition has been shown to have several health benefits for infants. HMOs serve as a source of nourishment for beneficial bacteria in the gut rather than being digested by the infant's digestive system. They can promote the growth of specific types of bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria, which are associated with improved gut health and a stronger immune system. HMOs have also been shown to prevent harmful bacteria, such as Salmonella and E. coli, from binding to the gut lining and causing infections.

In addition to their effects on gut health, HMOs have also been linked to reduced risk of allergies and infections in infants. They may also have potential therapeutic applications in the treatment and prevention of certain diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease and necrotizing enterocolitis. HMOs are difficult to synthesize and must be extracted from human breast milk, which can be a limiting factor in their availability and affordability. However, there is growing interest in incorporating HMOs into infant formula and other food and beverage products as an alternative to breast milk.

Recent developments by key players in Human Milk Oligosaccharides Market:

  • In August 2021, Nestle introduced its latest NAN SUPREME PRO 3 formula products containing five human milk oligosaccharides that the company claims strengthen children's immune systems.

The human milk oligosaccharides market is anticipated to experience substantial expansion in the coming years, driven by several key dynamics. One of the primary drivers of the HMO market is the growing awareness of the health benefits of HMOs. HMOs are complex carbohydrates present naturally in breast milk and are not present in cow's milk or infant formula. They've been found to encourage the growth of helpful bacteria in the gut, which can improve the immune system and lower the risk of illnesses and allergies in infants. This has increased the demand for HMOs as an ingredient in infant formula and other food and beverage products. Another factor driving the growth of the HMO market is the increasing prevalence of breastfeeding difficulties. While breast milk is the preferred source of nutrition for infants, some mothers may have difficulty producing sufficient milk or may be unable to breastfeed for other reasons. In these cases, HMOs can be added to infant formula to provide some of the benefits of breast milk.

However, the human milk oligosaccharides market is also subject to a number of challenges and restraints that may impact its growth in the future. One of the key restraints is the high cost of production. HMOs are complex sugars that are difficult to synthesize and must be extracted from human breast milk, which can be expensive and difficult to obtain in large quantities. This has limited the availability of HMOs and has made them relatively expensive compared to other types of ingredients.
