Resistant Starch Market Size
Resistant Starch Market size exceeded USD 10.5 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to exhibit over 6% CAGR between 2023 and 2032, given the increasing incidence of diabetes and other lifestyle diseases.
With the growing consumer focus on adopting healthy lifestyle, the consumption of complex carbohydrates including resistant starches to feed healthy gut bacteria will increase. This carbohydrate, with easy digestibility and nutrient-rich properties, can help improve insulin sensitivity, enabling the body to handle high blood sugar and lower diabetes risks. In the U.S., type 2 diabetes has become a common health condition, affecting 23% of people aged over 60 years.

The intake of higher levels of resistance starch dietary fibers is, however, associated with bloating, allergic reactions, and other side effects, limiting product usage to some extent. Despite these negative impacts, the prevalence of major lifestyle diseases including obesity has influenced consumers to opt for nutritional food items that lower cholesterol levels and improve gut health. Furthermore, the product’s vast application scope in convenience foods, sugar confectioneries, and baked goods will create lucrative opportunities for resistant starch market growth.
Resistant Starch Market Analysis
The resistant starch market share from the RS3 product segment is projected to surpass USD 13.5 billion by 2032, owing to the commercialization of high-amylose corn starch. Resistant starch 3 can naturally occur during normal food processing, thereby garnering attention from product manufacturers. With the steady increase in the number of consumers seeking convenience and comfort, there has also been a spike in pasta sales. Since RS3 is found largely in cooked-then-cooled foods, this rise in pasta intake is expected to complement the industry expansion.
Based on the source, the resistant starch market value from the grains segment is set to reach USD 8 billion by 2032, on account of the rapid population growth and mounting rice consumption worldwide. As per the USDA, rice is considered a primary stable food for over half of the world’s population, with Asia, South America, and Sub-Saharan Africa being the largest consumers. White rice has also been serving as a beneficial fiber in the digestive system. These benefits will increase consumer interest in grains, especially hot-cooked rice as a source of type 1 resistant starch.
The resistant starch market size for bakery products application segment will exceed USD 8.5 billion by 2032, due to the high awareness of the nutritional value, convenience, and accessibility of bakery products. A study conducted by the University of Munich has revealed the prominent role of resistant wheat starches in creating healthy baked goods with high fiber content. The escalating consumption of bakery products is therefore likely to amplify product development, especially across developing nations.
On the regional front, the Asia Pacific resistant starch market share is estimated to expand at 7% CAGR through 2032, as a result of the increasing disposable incomes and the shift in consumer eating preferences. Several bakery chains are also eying expansion opportunities across the APAC. For instance, in August 2022, Belgium-based biscuit and snacks producer, Lotus Bakeries, announced plans to establish a production facility in Thailand. Such initiatives, alongside the accelerating production of vegetables and grains, will stimulate the market growth.
