Increasing Juvenile Diabetes Cases as a Growth Catalyst in Diabetic Foods
One of the key growth drivers in the diabetic foods market is the rising incidence of juvenile diabetes among children and young people. Type 1 diabetes, commonly known as juvenile diabetes, constitutes about 90% of diabetes cases in this demographic. Dietary recommendations for managing this condition often include adherence to the Mediterranean diet, which emphasizes nutrient-rich foods like fresh vegetables, citrus fruits, plant-based fats such as olive oil and nuts, fish like sardines, and limited amounts of meat and dairy. For example, in June 2024, NHS England reported that in 2023, the number of individuals identified with pre-diabetes in England increased by 18%, from 3,065,825 in 2022 to 3,615,330. Among those under 40, cases rose nearly 25%, growing from 173,166 in 2022 to 216,440 in 2023. This surge in juvenile diabetes cases among younger populations is expected to significantly propel the diabetic foods market forward.
