Historically, the United Arab Emirates has always had high levels of overweight and obesity compared with levels globally, and this remained the case in 2023. This has been linked to poor dietary choices, such as the overconsumption of processed foods high in sugar, fat and salt.
In the forecast period, there is expected to be interest amongst consumers in the United Arab Emirates in following particular diets. For instance, an increasing number of people are expected to purchase gluten free or dairy free cooking ingredients and meals in order to maintain optimal health, even if they do not have an intolerance or allergy.
There is an increasing desire amongst consumers to better look after their metabolism, which has been boosting sales of products offering functional ingredients or fortification, such as high fibre, or other relevant nutrients, including omega 3s. This has often become part of their healthier routine amidst more hectic lifestyles.
