The global antioxidants market is expected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period, particularly due to increasing global meat consumption. Pork meat accounted for the largest share of the overall global meat consumption in the last four years. However, chicken meat consumption experienced high growth over the last four years. The increase in demand for anti aging products is also stimulating the growth of the global antioxidants market. Aging is defined as deterioration of physiological functions in organisms. As people get older their skin loses its defense against external weather due to oxygen deficiency. Increasing pollution is also a major inducer of premature aging by activating metalloproteinases that disintegrate collagen.

Antioxidants act as a remedy to skin aging by dampening free radicals formation in skin. Antioxidants offer protection to the cell membranes and prevent the oxidation process by neutralizing toxic oxygen molecules and free radicals. Along with the food industry, antioxidants are now very popular and extensively used in the cosmetics, health care and food packaging industry.

Asia Pacific has experienced high growth in the forecast period followed by Europe and North America. The demand for antioxidants in Asia Pacific is primarily driven by growing demand for health and dietary supplements. Huge population and growing health awareness in developing nations such as India and China is influencing the growth of the antioxidants market in the region. Currently, natural antioxidants are expensive compared to synthetic antioxidants, and people are expected to shift their consumption from synthetic to natural antioxidants in the coming years. Growing consumer preference for green attributes in food and cosmetics, and health and wellness products is influencing the growth of the antioxidants market. In addition, increasing demand for cosmetic and nutritional products obtained from natural sources is also driving the natural antioxidants market in North America. Growing demand for functional food and beverages in countries such as the U.K., Italy, Germany and Ireland is also contributing to the growth of the antioxidants market in Europe.
