Increasing adoption of supplements among the aging population due to growing health consciousness is the major factor expected to boost the demand for sarcopenia treatment and supplements.
The growing aging population is another major factor expected to boost the growth of the sarcopenia treatment market as the prevalence of sarcopenia is high among old age population. The global population is projected to increase over the time. People aged 65+ are the fast-growing demographics in the increasing global population. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the global population of the people aged 80 and older is expected to grow from 126.5 million to 446.6 million between 2015 and 2050.

Sarcopenia is a very common disease but there are no proper treatment options available. As the prevalence of sarcopenia is high among the older population, many manufacturers are focusing on research and development of drugs to treat sarcopenia. The companies and organizations such as Nestle, Novartis, GSK, the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP), and International Osteoporosis Organization are particularly focusing on research and development activities and conducting clinical trials for age-related loss of muscle mass.
Many pharmaceutical companies demonstrated positive clinical trial for drug development. For instance, in June 2017, Novartis AG announced the positive results of a 24-week randomized study of Bimagrumab on skeletal muscle mass and function in older adults with sarcopenia and mobility limitations. Increasing research and development activities by the manufacturer are expected to spur the opportunity for sarcopenia treatment market growth.
Most of the pharmaceutical and food-processing companies are investing in the development of new nutrition supplements in order to focus on the sarcopenia treatment. Some of the companies are investing in startups and setting up a venture with the aim of investing in the early stage nutraceuticals businesses. In Feb 2016, Nestle bought a stake in Pronutria Biosciences.
Nestle paid 42.3 million Swiss francs (US$ 42.5 million) for a "significant" stake in Pronutria. Pronutria is developing products to treat brain, metabolic, muscle and liver disorders. Pronutria will use the Nestlé cash to develop a new compound called PN-107, which has the potential to tackle muscle loss caused by aging, long bed rest or immobilization. These investments are expected to spur the growth of sarcopenia treatment market.
The micronutrient-rich foods are being consumed in low proportions in developing and underdeveloped countries, which result in malnutrition. Malnutrition is the major cause of sarcopenia. In regions such as Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia the prevalence of malnutrition is very high due to poor nutritional status.
Increasing malnutrition are lead to increase in sarcopenia prevalence and create high demand for sarcopenia treatment supplements. Vitamin D and Vitamin B12 deficiency are high among vegetarian and old age population which is the main cause of sarcopenia. Increasing vitamin deficiency is expected to propel the demand for sarcopenia treatment supplements.
