triacylglycerol, with cholesterol and phospholipids. Nutritional lipids are growing in popularity as they offer improved

energy reserves to be utilized when food intake is reduced.

women health and infant nutrition in the region. Demand can also be attributed to health-conscious consumers in
the region looking for additional nutrition to prevent possible diseases and improve physical and mental well-being.

The nutritional lipids market in North America is projected to record the highest CAGR during the review period due

are expected to boost the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.
