Segments - Food Grade Magnesium Derivatives Market by Type (Organic and Inorganic ), Application (Beverage Industry and Food Industry), and Region (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2023 – 2031
The food grade magnesium derivatives market size was valued at around USD 876.3 Mn in 2022 and is estimated to reach USD 1443.1 Mn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period, 2023 – 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing use of magnesium derivatives production of chocolates, sweets, and alcoholic & non-alcoholic drinks.
Magnesium derivatives are used in food and beverages for its high adoption of flavoring agents, brewing agents, firming agents, and others. The magnesium derivatives are used in several sectors including cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and water treatment plants. Magnesium is also present in pumpkin seeds, almonds, cashews, peanuts, chia seeds, soymilk, and others. It is useful and essential for the human body to boost immunity power.
Magnesium derivatives comprise of magnesium chloride, magnesium sulfate, magnesium hydroxide, and magnesium oxide. Among all the derivatives, magnesium oxide is widely consumed magnesium derivatives. According to the studies, dietary allowance for women is 310-320 per day, and for men is 400-420 per day.
Magnesium sulfate is mostly used for muscle recovery and magnesium ions are present in the body cells of humans. About 60% of the magnesium is in the bones of the human body. It turns into an electrolyte when dissolved in bodily fluid and is said to be one of the positively charged electrolytes present in the body cells.
Magnesium derivatives such as magnesium chloride, oxide, lactate, gluconate, hydroxide, stearate, and citrate are extensively used in the beverage industry due to their non-flammable and non-toxic properties. In the food industry, it is mostly used as a color retention agent, anti-caking agent, pH stabilizer, and supports fermentation.
Magnesium gluconate is an organic derivative popularly used across the world in various food and beverage applications. It is bitter and odorless and is available in form of white crystalline powder. Magnesium gluconate helps to increase the product’s shelf life and enhances quality and freshness.
The cost of organic derivatives is slightly high in comparison to inorganic derivatives due to their limited production and high demand from the food and beverage industries. Organic derivatives are commonly used in confectionery products such as chocolates, candies, gums, biscuits, and jelly.
The market report finds the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on several industries. However, the food and beverage industry did not see any ill effects owing to the high demand for immunity-boosting drinks and food products. Further, during the pandemic, the food items were classified as essential products which in turn resulted in the growth of the food-grade magnesium derivatives market.
High demand for magnesium derivatives in the food and beverage industries is fueling market growth owing to their easy application and availability. Magnesium derivatives such as magnesium chloride, oxide, lactate, gluconate, hydroxide, stearate, and citrate are among the most popular derivatives used for consumption
Side effects associated with the overconsumption of magnesium derivatives are expected to hamper market growth. The overdose may cause diarrhea, nausea, diabetes, and heart disease. According to the safety data sheet of Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc. people suffering from intestinal disease, heart or kidney disease, and diabetes are advised to consume magnesium only with medical consultation.
Increasing consumer awareness to improve immunity and maintain a healthy diet is driving the market of magnesium derivatives. Magnesium derivatives are immunity boosters and help in curing several body issues. Manufacturers are therefore launching new products in the market which contain magnesium derivatives to target more consumers.
