India Diabetes Care Cooking Oil Market Overview
Diabetes is a disease in which the body’s ability to produce or respond to the hormonal change is impaired, resulting in abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates and elevated level of glucose in the blood and urine.
During 1970-1990 people believed that the fat is bad for the body and therefore, they adopted the low-cholesterol and low-fat diets. However, fats are important for the body as they help in the absorption of the fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K. Further, fat also helps to fill the fat cells and insulate the body to help the body keep warm. Moreover, the body also gets essential fatty acids called as linoleic and linolenic acid. Lack of essential foods has made people the victims of the diabetes today. With more than 50 million diabetic patients (type-2 diabetes), India has the highest number of diabetic patients in the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the global burden of type-2 diabetes expected to increase to 438 million by 2030 from 285 million people (recorded in 2010). Similarly, for India this increase is estimated to be 58%, from 51 million people in 2010 to 87 million in 2030. With the increasing number of people affected with diabetes, the manufacturers of the cooking oil are looking for the ways to harness the diabetes market. Recently, the Fortune Vivo Oil, an Indian based firm headquartered in Ahmedabad, has come up in the market for controlling type-2 diabetes, reducing and maintaining the blood sugar level. The Fortune Vivo Oil is low in unsaturated fats making it suitable oil for the diabetic patients.
Market Size and Forecast
The market for diabetes care cooking oil is expanded to grow significantly at a higher rate during the forecast period 2017-2024. The market growth will be driven by the rising urbanization coupled with increasing number of the obese population along with aging. According to the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4), one-fifth of Indian women, or 20.7 per cent to be precise, in the age group of 15-49 are overweight. The obesity promotes insulin resistance through the inappropriate inactivation of a process called gluconeogenesis, where the liver creates glucose for fuel and which ordinarily occurs only in times of fasting.

Moreover, it creates stress on the cell and slows down the production of proteins. This process, which is known as ER stress response, is abnormally active in livers of obese individuals, where it contributes to the development of hyperglycemia, or high blood glucose levels. The endoplasmic-reticulum (ER) is a cellular response that leads to the accumulation of unfolded proteins in endoplasmic-reticulum and cause ER stress. Therefore, the increased obese population will lead to the growth of the diabetes care cooking oil market due to rising health consciousness amongst population.
