Growing geriatric population particularly in Europe and Japan is expected to bolster the global polyphenol market growth over the next five years. Increasing awareness of consumers towards health is anticipated to drive the polyphenol market growth over the forecast period. Growing demand for nutrients and vitamins content food is expected to witness a rapid growth in the near future. Polyphenols are generally found in green tea, cherries, grapes, apples and olives. These are used as antioxidants to prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. They also augment vitamins performance and used to cure cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Polyphenols are segmented into non-flavoniods and flavonoids. Most commonly used polyphenols include resveratrol, gallic acid, tannins, epigallocatechin gallate and catechins. Polyphenols are majorly extracted from cocoa, grapes, apples, olives, pomegranate and cranberries. The product concentration and type are identified before extraction from substrate.
Climatic conditions, harvesting stage, raw material freshness and other factors related to environment such as soil characteristics are the main factors which influence the polyphenol content in the substrate. These fruits are chosen based on their freshness and dipped in hot water for polyphenols extraction. This extract is then passed through membrane filter to separate contaminants from polyphenols. The processed product is then treated with solvents or on adsorption column. Generally, addition of solvents is broadly used as compared to adsorption technique as it is costly and more time consuming. Ethanol is majorly used solvent in polyphenol extraction process. Finally the water and alcohol are removed from the extract to separate concentrate polyphenols. Collected polyphenol can be used as liquid or in the powder form through spray dryer process. The liquid form is used in functional beverages and powder form in dietary supplements. However, growing demand for other dietary supplements as polyphenol substitutes is expected to hinder the market growth over the next five years.
