Vegan DHA Market Outlook

DHA and other omega-3 ingredients are extensively extracted from marine and plant sources. Marine sources comprise algal, fungus oil, fish oil and krill oil. Those DHA which are obtained from other sources than fish are considered as vegan DHA which includes chia seed oil, flax seed oil, soybean oil, among others.

The increasing demand for healthy food ingredients in the food and beverage industry has led to rising demand for healthy food products and fall in need of unhealthy fatty acids.

The vegan DHA in animal nutrition, introduced either by grazing or as diet supplement are important as they influence the improvement of their production, reproduction and other health performances

Various researchers show that feeding animals with essential fatty acids such as DHA support coat and skin health. It also aids healthy brain cells, as well as nutritionally support the natural healing process.

Future growth will be driven by innovations in vegan DHA formulations with increased consumer awareness for the health and overall well-being.

The government of various countries such as Canada, U.S., Sweden, Japan and others are taking initiatives and promoting the adequate intake of DHA due to potential health benefits. This is expected to create new opportunities for players operating in the vegan DHA market.

Growing Need for an Alternative to Fish Derived DHA

The growing pollution in the sea and ocean has contaminated the fish derived products. The fish derived DHA oil in the market are rancid i.e. oxidized. The rancid oil or fats are expected to damage cells and contribute to atherosclerosis.

Large numbers of free radicals are produced in the rancid oils and have potential to damage DNA cells. The free radicals can also act as carcinogens and cause cancers to humans.

The fat-soluble pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls, magnify in marine food chains and are expected to end up in concentrated amounts in the fish oil supplements.

The fish remains the major source of omega-3 ingredients such as DHA. These fishes obtain omega-3 ingredients from algae. Therefore algae are emerging as a new alternative source for production of DHA to fish and anticipated to grow rapidly over the forecasted period.

The DHA supplements derived from algae are considered as vegan DHA and have the same benefits and nutritional content as fish derived supplements. The vegan diet lacks DHA and EPA which can be fulfilled from the supplements manufactured using algal oil.

Vegan DHA Market: Opportunities

The manufacturers of the vegan DHA are expected to incorporate new technologies for the production of vegan omega-3 ingredients. The producers are expected to invest more in research and development to develop innovative methodologies for producing vegan DHA from algae or plant based sources to cater the demand from vegan and vegetarian consumers.

Microencapsulation technology is used to incorporate plant based oils (rich in omega-3 ingredients) into food and stabilized fish oil enriched foods. This technology improves palatability and stability of fish oils. Microencapsulated oil powders or products with enhanced stability products find applications majorly in infant formula, dietary supplements, and food and beverages.

  • For Instance, Polaris Nutritional Lipids developed QUALITYSILVER, a technology that prevents oxidation of oil to protect its nutritional and organoleptic qualities. This is expected to extend the shelf life of the products and increases the stability of the oil produced.
