Herbal remedies are employed in herbal therapies as alternative medicines. People utilize them to treat or prevent illnesses, alleviate symptoms, enhance energy, relax, or lose weight. Unlike drugs, herbs are not subject to rigorous testing and regulation.
Herbal medicines are mainly utilized for chronic diseases and promoting health, but their usage increases in the presence of ineffectual modern medicine for severe illnesses like advanced cancer or emerging infectious diseases. This growth in demand for herbal medicine will expand the global market and provide opportunities for new vendors to cater to similar needs.
The inclination toward herbal and natural products will fuel the global herbal medicine market growth. Many youth and people nearing retirement age are inclined toward natural products like herbal medicines and health supplements. This has triggered a shift in healthcare spending, with many older people opting for herbal medicines to stay active.
The COVID-19 pandemic, which spread globally, has driven the growth of the global herbal medicine market. Due to the lockdown restrictions, most people were unable to visit fitness centers such as gyms and sports clubs to boost their immunity and fitness. Therefore, the demand for herbal medicines increased owing to the growing focus on building immunity against COVID-19. During the lockdowns, vendors actively promoted online sales, especially through brand-owned e-commerce portals, and offered discounts on prominent herbal medicines. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the global herbal medicine market during the forecast period.
Inadequate knowledge about the usage of herbal medicines is a major challenge to the global herbal medicine market growth. Over the last three decades, the use of herbal medical items has skyrocketed, with more than 80% of people globally depending on them for some aspect of basic healthcare. Although therapies employing these compounds have demonstrated significant promise, with the efficacy of a large number of herbal medications clearly proven, many of them remain untested, and their usage is either poorly controlled or not checked at all.
Moreover, there is insufficient understanding of their method of action, potential adverse responses, contraindications, and combinations with currently available conventional medications and functional foods to encourage the safe and reasonable use of these agents. Safety remains a key concern with the use of herbal treatments, and therefore, relevant regulatory bodies must implement adequate measures to protect public health by ensuring that all herbal medications are safe and of appropriate quality.
