“Innovations in Sugar Substitutes & Functional Ingredients for Blood Sugar Management”
- A key trend in the diabetic food market is the growing innovation in sugar substitutes and functional ingredients designed to help regulate blood sugar levels effectively
- The development of natural sweeteners such as allulose, monk fruit extract, and stevia is gaining traction, offering consumers alternatives to traditional sugar without spiking glucose levels
- Functional ingredients such as fiber, resistant starch, and plant-based proteins are increasingly incorporated into food formulations to enhance glycemic control and improve overall metabolic health
- For instance, September 2023, Kellogg's launched a diabetic-friendly cereal that combines whole grains with natural sweeteners and added fiber to help maintain balanced blood sugar levels. This innovative product targets consumers seeking nutritious breakfast options that support glycemic control
- These advancements are shaping the diabetic food market, providing more choices for consumers while aligning with the broader health and wellness trend driving demand for nutritious and specialized dietary solutions
