Metabolic testing market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period, owing
to rising prevalence of lifestyle diseases. Prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and type 2
diabetes is rising, globally. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO),
around 17 million people die annually from cardiovascular diseases. According to American
Diabetes Association (ADA), in 2015, 30.3 million in the U.S. were suffering from diabetes.
Prevalence of lifestyle diseases is expected to increase over the forecast period in turn fostering
growth of the global metabolic testing market. Manufacturers are focusing on development of
technologically advanced metabolic rate testing equipment to stay ahead in the competition. For
instance, in March 2018 Cosmed launched Q-NRG, a metabolic monitor for energy expenditure
measurements in ventilated patients in the ICU. Moreover, Cosmed received innovative technology
designation from Vizient, Inc. for its K5 Wearable Metabolic System, in 2017. Manufacturers are
focusing on participating in trade fairs and in extensive product promotion, in order to increase the
awareness of the metabolic testing. For instance, Geratherm Medical AG and Cosmed srl
participated in World Forum for Medicine, MEDICA 2017. Increasing awareness towards metabolic
testing is expected to boost growth of the metabolic testing market over the forecast period.
However, low awareness (despite manufacturer’s attempts to increase awareness) regarding
metabolic testing, high costs of the products, and comparatively less market penetration of the
products is expected to restrain growth of the metabolic testing market over the forecast period.

Metabolic Testing Market Insights
On the basis of region, North America and Europe are expected to exhibit significant growth in the
metabolic testing market over the forecast period. This is owing to high presence of leading
manufacturers who offer products in this category, in North America. Manufacturers such as
General Electric Company and OSI Systems, Inc. offer products in this category that have high
presence in the region. Prevalence of lifestyle diseases as well as obesity issues are fairly high in
these regions leading to metabolic diseases. For instance, according to Center for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), more than 1/3rd of U.S. adults had obesity in 2014. Metabolic testing is
gradually gaining traction in emerging economies such as Asia Pacific. Manufacturers such as
Cosmed srl offer products in these regions through distributors. For instance, TBS India, partnered
with Cosmed Italy and offers products sold by Cosmed in India.
