The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) Market Driver
The increased participation in sports and fitness activities is a major factor driving the global medium chain triglycerides (MCT) market share growth. Sport and fitness activities play a significant role in promoting health and wellness among children and adults. Besides improving the physical fitness and health of an individual, such activities are also an integral strategy for preventing childhood obesity, which is a critical health priority in countries such as the US, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, Chile, and Hungary. Thus, increased interest, especially among young consumers, in maintaining good physical health is leading to an increase in the number of bodybuilders. Athletes and bodybuilders build muscle through training, and it is important for them to have a balanced and healthy diet. Protein powders, bars, and supplements are some of the most popular sports nutrition products consumed by bodybuilders. This has resulted in the increased use of MCT oils by athletes to raise their endurance during exercise or training regimes, as they are an immediate source of energy. Leading supplements such as 360 CUT Performance Supplement that are used by athletes before workouts contain MCTs. Therefore, the increasing interest in sports and fitness activities has increased the consumption of MCTs for enhanced performance.
Key Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) Market Trend
The growing awareness of lifestyle diseases is another factor supporting the global medium chain triglycerides (MCT) market share growth. There has been a considerable change in the lifestyle and diet habits of individuals over the past two decades. Consumerism and urbanization are the major reasons for this shift, which is leading to a high intake of artificial and synthetic food products. Thus, the lack of a balanced diet and a sedentary lifestyle have resulted in the increased incidence of lifestyle diseases such as heart diseases, stroke, obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis. As a result, governments, along with manufacturers worldwide, are initiating various programs to spread healthcare awareness. Apart from government agencies, various independent organizations, NGOs, healthcare groups, and commercial entities also hold health promotion campaigns. As a result, consumers are becoming well-informed about nutrition and healthcare issues. Furthermore, health magazines advising readers on both lifestyle and diet and new upcoming products are creating awareness among consumers. This is encouraging consumers to plan their diet, change their habits, and follow a proper schedule or program to stay fit and healthy. The growing health consciousness and awareness among consumers will directly increase the demand for products such as MCTs to remain healthy and fit.
Key Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) Market Challenge
The traditional or natural weight loss methods will be a major challenge for the global medium chain triglycerides (MCT) market share growth during the forecast period. With the increasing knowledge about health risks associated with overweight or obesity, people are making significant lifestyle changes to reduce weight and remain fit. Diet and exercise are common approaches to reducing weight. The largest weight management markets are the US and Japan, where traditional weight loss approaches are being opted for increasingly. In connection with the popularity of dieting, the sales of food and beverages with low sugar or fats have grown since 2008. The sales of sports nutrition and sportswear have grown among individuals interested in various exercise regimens. Governments and health organizations are promoting weight loss through several lifestyle changes, including yoga. Limiting energy intake from total fats and sugars, increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables, and engagement in regular physical activity are being promoted to maintain fitness. Since traditional or natural weight loss methods are being adopted, this might decline the demand for products such as meal replacement and energy bars that contain MCT oil, driving the revenue of the global MCT supplements market.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 adversely affected all countries in North America, especially the US, in 2020. However, it had a slightly negative impact on the MCT supplements market in North America. Various non-urgent treatments, elective surgical procedures, and clinical visits were either restricted or halted totally as per government guidelines. Some scheduled treatments were either delayed or postponed, which led to a slight decline in the sales of MCT supplements. However, routine in-patient treatments at hospitals for other diseases than COVID-19 were not affected, depending on the urgency of the treatment, which, in turn, led to regular demand for MCT supplements. Thus, the regional MCT supplements market witnessed a mixed impact in 2020 and Q1 2021. However, by the second half of 2020, lockdown-related restrictions were relaxed in various countries, which allowed the movement of people. Moreover, as pharmaceuticals were categorized as essential services, the demand for and supply of MCT supplements was not affected in the region. Like many other pharmaceutical products, MCT supplements were made available to all stakeholders. Hence, the regional market is expected to register increased growth during the forecast period.
