The global dietary fibers market size was around USD 7,901 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach USD 21,673 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period, 2022–2030. The market growth is attributed to the rising geriatric population and the demand for fiber-rich food products among consumers across the globe.
Dietary fibers are mainly derived from plants including fruits, vegetables, and legumes. Dietary fibers are present in various plant food items including nuts, oatmeal, beans, and apples.
Dietary fibers prevent heart disease, decrease blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and keep weight in control. Also, it helps the body to transport waste. Beta-glucan slows down the transition of food in the intestine. Beta-glucan is a type of soluble dietary fibers that improve digestion. Beta-glucan aids in lowering cholesterol and improves cardiovascular health. Beta-glucan passes through the entire digestive system and carries cholesterol out with it, thereby decreasing cholesterol levels.
Thus, beta-glucan reduces the risk of blood sugar spikes and supports the maintenance of blood sugar levels. Beta-glucan is a biological response modifier that is used in immunotherapy treatment. These treatments activate the immune response and strengthen the immune system. Beta-glucan has the ability to delay the development of cancer cells and stop it from spreading to other places of the body. Thus, beta-glucan is used to treat cancer.
Dietary fibers are used to prevent chronic diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, colorectal cancer, diverticular disease, obesity, colorectal cancer, and inflammatory bowel syndrome. As per the world health organization (WHO), chronic disease prevalence was anticipated to rise by 57% by the year 2020. Dietary fibers absorb toxins, as insoluble fibers bind to the bloodstream and absorb carcinogens, mutagens, and other toxins. Dietary fibers help waste movement through the body, which relieved constipation. Soluble dietary fibers aid in bowel movement regularity and soften stools. Dietary fibers are important for muscle performance, muscle regeneration, and endurance during and after training.

Moreover, the rising dietary fiber consumption for leading a healthy life is projected to propel market expansion.
Growing demand from the food & beverages industry
The growing demand from the food & beverages industry is expected to propel the market expansion during the forecast period. FDA increased the daily reference value for dietary fiber from 25 grams per day to 28 grams per day. Dietary fibers help promote regular bowel movements and increase the bulk of stool. Dietary fibers promote healthy gut microbiota. The rise in the incidence of lifestyle diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, and increasing personal care spending further drives market growth.
Harmful effects of excessive dietary fibers intake
The harmful effects of excessive dietary fibers intake are projected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Excessive dietary fibers can cause gas, bloating, and constipation. These side effects of excessive intake of dietary fibers can occur when a person eats more than 70 grams of fiber a day. These uncomfortable side effects can relieve by increasing their fluid intake, making dietary changes, and exercise.
Increasing product developments and rising demand for dietary supplements due to changing lifestyles
The increasing product developments and rising demand for dietary supplements due to changing lifestyles are projected to create lucrative opportunities for market players. Moreover, the rising awareness of the health benefits of dietary fibers coupled with a rising urban population is anticipated to provide a substantial growth opportunity. The dietary fibers market is projected to grow, due to rise in number of working women and increase in purchasing ability of healthy food products.

Dietary Fibers Market Segment Insights
Insoluble dietary fibers segment to expand at a considerable CAGR
On the basis of product, the dietary fibers market is segmented into insoluble dietary fibers and soluble dietary fibers. The insoluble dietary fibers segment is further segregated into lignin, oat bran, wheat fiber, cellulose, hemicellulose, chitin & chitosan, and others. The soluble dietary fibers segment is further segregated into beta-glucan, corn fibers, inulin, pectin, and others.
The insoluble dietary fibers segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, due to increasing consumption of functional food, increasing health-consciousness among consumers, and shifting diet patterns of consumers.
