New innovations in omega 3 and omega 6 are an emerging trend shaping the market growth. The global omega 3 and omega 6 market is experiencing a rising trend of new product launches. These introductions serve to incentivize consumers to explore various omega 3 and omega 6 products, fostering competition in the market. This heightened competition, in turn, drives innovation and product differentiation. Notably, new product launches have the effect of enticing consumers to experiment with different offerings, prompting manufacturers to focus on novel product developments. For instance, in October 2022, CoreFX Ingredients and Natures Crops joined forces to introduce the 70GA Dry Ahiflower Oil, a novel plant-based omega powder.

The declining growth rate of fish production is a significant challenge hindering market growth. The nutraceutical industry faces significant challenges due to a decline in the growth rate of fish production, given that fish and fish oil serve as major sources of essential fatty acids like omega 3 and omega 6. One of the primary drivers of this declining growth rate is overfishing. As global demand for fish products continues to surge, fishing fleets are intensifying their efforts to meet this demand. Unfortunately, this over-exploitation has led to the depletion of fish populations in numerous areas, making it increasingly difficult to maintain consistent levels of fish production. The rise in temperatures and shifts in ocean currents are disrupting marine ecosystems and affecting fish populations. In some regions, elevated water temperatures have prompted fish to migrate to cooler areas, making them more challenging to catch. Additionally, alterations in ocean currents can disrupt the availability of food sources for fish, thereby impacting their reproductive capabilities and overall population size.
However, these climate-related factors have tangible consequences on the production of omega 3 and omega 6 products derived from fish sources. Overall, these challenges, including overfishing, environmental pollution, and climate change, are expected to impede the growth of the nutraceutical market focused on omega 3 and omega 6 products during the forecast period.
The functional food and supplements segment is an essential part of the global omega 3 and omega 6 markets. In recent years, the inclusion of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids in these functional food products has achieved significant popularity. For instance, companies have started producing omega 3-enriched yogurt, bread, and spreads. Many people choose supplements as they deliver a suitable way to provide an adequate intake of essential fatty acids. For example, omega 3 fish oil capsules are a popular supplement choice owing to their high concentration of EPA and DHA, which are important omega 3 fatty acids. Therefore, such advantages of omega 3 and omega 6 are anticipated to boost its adoption in functional food and supplements, which will fuel the growth of the global omega 3 and omega 6 market in the functional food and supplements segment during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the omega 6 segment will be significant during the forecast period. Omega 6 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats that are necessary for the proper functioning of the human body, including brain development, stimulation for hair growth, bone health maintenance, and regulation of metabolism. Omega 6 fatty acids are generally found in vegetable oils such as corn, soybean, and sunflower oil.
The segment omega 6 was valued at USD 5,429.03 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021.
