On the basis of end product, the nutraceutical excipients market is segmented into prebiotics, probiotics, proteins & amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids. Proteins & amino acids accounted for the largest share, followed by the omega-3 fatty acids, in 2016. Excipients facilitate stabilization of proteins and protect them from undesirable chemical reactions.

On the basis of functionality, the nutraceutical excipients market is segmented into binders, lubricants, fillers, disintegrants, coating agents, and flavoring agents. Fillers & diluents accounted for the largest market share in 2016. The easy availability to and wide acceptance of fillers & diluents among nutraceutical product manufacturers has accelerated the growth of this segment.

On the basis of form, dry segment accounted for a larger market share in 2016, followed by liquid segment. Excellent flowability of the excipient powder is an essential characteristic required for it to function as a filler, diluent, or a binder in nutraceutical products such as in oral dosage formulations (ODT). The popularity of the dry form can be attributed to its cost-effectiveness and convenience in multiple applications.
