Benefits offered by ACV Surged its Demand amid COVID-19


There was a state of panic observed among the population across the world due to the rise in the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19. Until the confirmation of the vaccine for coronavirus, mass buying of face masks, hand sanitizer, and disinfectants was observed amongst the consumers. Due to the high demand for disinfectants, people switched on to natural disinfectants such as vinegar including ACV. According to apple cider vinegar manufacturer, Bragg Live Food Products, consumer interest and purchase of its ACV spiked in the U.S. since the novel coronavirus came in the first half of 2020. Furthermore, people have increased the usage of ACV as they have started cooking at home and are constantly looking for products that would help them boost their immunity.

Growing Health Consciousness to be an Emerging Trend in the Marketplace


With a large number of health problems associated with obesity and an increased mortality rate, consumers across the world are becoming mindful diners. With the spread of coronavirus, consumers across the world have become more health-conscious. Cider vinegar has been considered a key component of a number of diet plans and works best as a weight-loss solution. According to a study conducted in 2009, a drastic improvement was observed in the weight of obese people who consumed ACV every day. Along with its role in weight loss, ACV has been associated with remedial properties such as improvement in digestion and immunity. Therefore, the rising popularity of a healthy lifestyle is likely to support apple cider vinegar market trends.


DRIVING FACTORS


Health Benefits associated with ACV consumption to Increase the Need


Apple cider vinegar has been used in cooking and as a home remedy for many years. Further, ACV has varied health benefits, including antioxidant and antimicrobial effects. According to multiple research studies, the consumption of ACV reduces cholesterol, lowers blood sugar levels, and improves the symptoms of diabetes. Acetic acid, a key ingredient in vinegar, is responsible for its numerous health benefits.


Since ACV is made by fermenting apple juice; hence, it is rich in probiotics. According to Nicole Avena, a neuroscientist from New York, U.S., cider vinegar plays a key role in supporting gut health. Further, Canadian Digestive Health Foundation claims that ACV has similar nutrient content as that of apples, including probiotic bacteria, which help to prevent gut health in humans.


Therefore, health benefits associated with ACV consumption is likely to boost demand for cider vinegar.


Increasing Commercial Product Development and Application in Many Industries to Support Growth


Due to the presence of essential minerals, vitamins, acetic acid, and citric acid; apple cider vinegar has applications in various commercial products. In food preparation, cider vinegar is used as a flavoring agent. Further, in 2019, Vermont Village, a U.S.-based subsidiary of Stonewall kitchen, launched RTD cider vinegar shots in single-serving packets.


As the wellness trend continues to grow amongst consumers, various wellness companies are developing gummies and capsules containing ACV powder. Along with ACV applications in food & beverage and pharmaceutical products; several personal care companies are coming up with cider vinegar-based hair cleansers and face wash. For instance, in India, Fit & Glow Healthcare Private Limited sells ACV foaming face wash and shampoo.


Therefore, increased new product launches and the application of cider vinegar in several industries are likely to expand market size.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Prolonged Consumption of Apple Cider Vinegar Affects Health and would Limit the Market Growth


Many research studies have indicated the benefits of ACV consumption; however, consuming too much can cause unwanted effects. Regular consumption of undiluted cider vinegar results in tooth decay and hence it is recommended that vinegar should be diluted with water for direct consumption. In addition, according to an associate professor of Harvard Medicine, consumption of ACV leads to low potassium levels- hypokalemia. The acidity in ACV may also lead to gastrointestinal issues and skin burns if used in a large quantity of undiluted vinegar.


Therefore, such factors are likely to limit the penetration of direct consumption of cider vinegar.

However, several companies are launching tablet or capsule-based ACV products, and thus, it is projected to grow at a faster pace. For instance, EBYSU Nutrition, a United States based company offers cider vinegar products in the form of vegetarian capsules and gummies.
