Driving Factors:

ACV Consumption to Increase the Need for Health Benefits

For many years, apple cider vinegar has been used as a cooking ingredient and home remedy. ACV also has many health benefits including antioxidants and antimicrobial effects. Multiple research has shown that ACV can lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels, as well as improve the symptoms of diabetes. It is responsible for many health benefits, including Acetic acid, which is a key ingredient of vinegar.

ACV is made from fermenting apple juice. It is therefore rich in probiotics. Nicole Avena, a New York neuroscientist, claims that cider vinegar plays an important role in gut health. Canadian Digestive Health Foundation asserts that ACV contains similar nutritional content to that of apples and includes probiotic bacteria which help to improve gut health.

Cider vinegar is likely to be in demand because of the health benefits it offers.

To support growth, increase commercial product development and application in many industries

Apple cider vinegar is used in many commercial products due to its high levels of vitamins, essential minerals, and acetic acid. Cider vinegar is used in food preparation as a flavoring agent. In 2019, Vermont Village, an American subsidiary of Stonewall Kitchen, introduced RTD cider vinegar shots as single-serving packs.

Numerous wellness companies are creating ACV powder-infused gummies and capsules as a way to promote wellness. ACV powder is used in pharmaceutical and food beverages, but personal care companies also make ACV-based shampoos and cleansers. Fit & Glow Healthcare Private Limited in India sells ACV foaming shampoos and face washes. Market size will increase due to increased product launches and the use of cider vinegar across multiple industries.

Restraining Factors:

The Market Growth would be limited if Apple Cider Vinegar is consumed for too long.

Numerous research studies have shown the benefits of ACV. However, excessive consumption can lead to unwanted side effects. Undiluted cider vinegar can cause tooth decay so it is best to dilute the vinegar with water before you consume it. According to Harvard Medicine’s associate professor, ACV can cause low potassium levels and hypokalemia. If ACV is used in large quantities, it can cause skin irritations and gastrointestinal problems. These factors may limit cider vinegar’s penetration into the body.
