Amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, are organic compounds essential for human and animal health. Major types include L-glutamine, lysine, methionine, and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are used in dietary supplements, animal feed, and medicines. The market valuation of US$29 billion in 2021 highlights its important role and is projected to increase to US$49.7 billion by 2031. The market is driven by the L-glutamine segment, which accounted for a 20% share in 2021 due to its use in sports nutrition and improving gut health. The 6.3% CAGR reflects the ability to address protein deficiency in 10-15% of the global diet, according to FAO research.

Key Drivers of Market Growth

There are several factors driving the amino acid market to grow towards the US$49.7 billion milestone by 2031. Firstly, the growing health and fitness trend is the main driver. According to Statista, the global nutritional supplement market will be valued at US$178 billion in 2023, with 30% of consumers using BCAA and glutamine supplements for muscle recovery. Rising veganism, with 6% of the world's population predicted to be vegan in 2023, will boost demand for plant-based amino acids, especially in North America, which accounted for 35% market share in 2021.

Secondly, expanding animal feed applications are driving growth. Lysine and methionine, used in 60% of global livestock feed, boost protein intake and improve meat production efficiency by 10%, according to TMR. The animal feed market, valued at US$400 billion in 2023, is driven by demand in the Asia-Pacific region, where China's livestock sector consumes 40% of the world's amino acids. Innovations like Ajinomoto's development of a bio-fermentation process for sustainable lysine production in 2023 are supporting a CAGR of 6.3%, while feed applications are growing at a CAGR of 6.5%.

Third, pharmaceutical advances are driving adoption. According to a 2023 NIH report, amino acids such as arginine and glycine are used in 20% of pharmaceutical formulations, helping to treat cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. The growth of the pharmaceutical market, which is expected to reach US$1.5 trillion by 2030, is driving the demand for amino acids in enteral nutrition, especially in Europe. Regulatory support such as the EU's approval of health claims for amino acids, and e-commerce, which accounts for 15% of supplement sales, are strengthening the trajectory that will propel the market to US$49.7 billion.
