Fish Oil Market Size, Share, Analysis, Regional Outlook, Growth Trends and Forecasts, 2012 To 2020 | Hexa Research

Presence of key nutrition including omega 3 acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in fish oil is one of the key factors driving the fish oil market. Growing concern about health and increasing demand in variety of food products containing unsaturated fatty acid are also prominent key drivers expected to work favourably for the growth of the fish oil market. Advantages such as reducing joint pains, triglyceride levels, improving lung functioning, depression levels, improving neurological and visual development in infants and reducing the probability of coronary diseases from fish oil are going to drive the market growth over the forecast period. Rise in direct human consumption (DHC) owing to increasing health awareness of advantages of omega 3 fatty acids is expected to be major driver for the fish oil market in coming years. However, static production with increasing demand and increasing prices are expected to be the confronting issues for the growth of the fish oil market. Fast development of aquaculture globally is expected to drive the market.
