Dublin, Oct. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Clinical Nutrition Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Product, Application, Sales Channel, Region, and Segment Forecasts, 2026-2033" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Clinical Nutrition Market Projected to Reach USD 51.47 Billion by 2033

The global clinical nutrition market was valued at an estimated USD 34.04 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 51.47 billion by 2033. The market is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 5.27% from 2026 to 2033, supported by the rising prevalence of malnutrition, growing demand for post-cancer care, and increased adoption of plant-based clinical nutrition products.

Product innovation from leading nutrition companies, including Nutricia and Nestle , is strengthening market growth. Manufacturers are expanding their portfolios to address changing dietary preferences and the specialized nutritional requirements of pediatric, adult, and elderly populations. Demand is also increasing for therapeutic nutrition products, fortified supplements, oral clinical nutrition, enteral nutrition, and parenteral nutrition across hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare settings.

Malnutrition remains a major global healthcare concern. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 512 million people could be chronically undernourished by 2030, with Africa accounting for an estimated 60% of this population. Governments, NGOs, and healthcare providers are consequently increasing efforts to improve access to specialized nutritional support, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. These initiatives are expected to accelerate investment in products designed to address nutritional deficiencies and improve outcomes among vulnerable populations.

The increasing incidence of chronic diseases is also contributing to clinical nutrition market growth. Patients with Alzheimer's disease, ADHD, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, central nervous system disorders, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, dysphagia, gastrointestinal disorders, and cancer often require tailored nutritional management. Data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in August 2023 indicated that approximately 6 million children aged 3 to 17 years had received an ADHD diagnosis, highlighting the need for condition-specific health and nutrition strategies.
