Medical food is food intended to meet nutritional requirements and/or metabolic deficiencies in an individual suffering from a particular disease. Medical food is specially formulated for a patient to be taken by means of oral intake or enteral feeding by tube (a catheter). These foods are principally formulated products, intended to be used under supervision of medical or health professionals. Medical foods offer patients an effective therapeutic tool for managing pain (https://marketresearch.biz/report/medical-foods-market/), sleep, and cognitive disorders without many of the risks associated with pharmaceutical drugs.

Growing awareness among individuals about medical foods in developed economies, high prevalence rate of chronic diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer disease, and increasing unhealthy lifestyle among individuals are key factors driving growth of the global medical foods market.
