Dublin, Oct. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "The U.S. Weight Loss & Diet Control Market" report from Marketdata LLC has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The U.S. weight loss market, valued at $75 billion, experienced significant growth of nearly 15% in the past year, rebounding from the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic and economic recession in 2020.
One of the prominent trends in 2022 has been the surging demand for new obesity drugs like Wegovy and Saxenda, with more innovative drugs expected to enter the market soon. This surge suggests that the weight loss industry might be transitioning into a new era with a stronger focus on medical approaches, even extending to established brands like Weight Watchers, which now offers a medical plan.
While the health clubs industry faced devastating setbacks due to the pandemic, leading to a reduction in its size, surprising resilience was observed in segments such as the frozen diet entrees market and diet soft drinks.
On the other hand, supply chain disruptions had a lingering impact on the multi-level marketing (MLM) market for meal replacements into 2021 and 2022, affecting the growth trajectories of companies like Herbalife and Medifast. Additionally, the commercial weight loss center sector underwent significant changes, with many businesses shifting to virtual client meetings and drop shipping of products.
Despite these challenges, DIY weight loss plans remain popular as consumers increasingly turn to free diet and fitness apps. The market still holds untapped niches and opportunities for growth.
