LONDON--()--Technavio analysts forecast the global finger millet market to grow at a CAGR of over 3% during the forecast period, according to their latest market research report.

The increasing use of finger millet to control diabetes is one of the major trends being witnessed in the global finger millet market 2018-2022. Finger millet is rich in fiber and low in glycemic index. It also contains dietary fibers and polyphenols. The low glycemic index allows food to get digested slowly by keeping the blood sugar level at a moderate rate. Finger millets are known to increase insulin sensitivity among people with diabetes and are also very effective in containing sugar levels in both type 2 diabetic and non-diabetic consumers. A balanced consumption of finger millets is said to lower excess glucose levels by 32%, and is, therefore, recommended for diabetic patients. Phytochemicals are found in substantial amounts on the outer layer of the grains, which bind bile salts and promote cholesterol flow in the body. Therefore, this aspect is identified as a positive trend that will benefit the global finger millet market over the forecast period.

Global finger millet market: increase in demand for a gluten-free diet

Food allergies and intolerance are growing economic concerns and call for products that serve specific customer requirements. Some people are allergic to food containing gluten, while others have celiac disease, which makes it very difficult for them to digest the protein in food. This has given a fillip to the gluten-free food market. Finger millet is a crop that is akin to wheat but is completely gluten free. It is becoming popular among gluten-free products and is gaining momentum as a gluten-free diet.

The increasing trend among consumers for a gluten-free lifestyle to improve health and gain more control over their diet has led to the high adoption of gluten-free food. Finger millets offer the perfect alternative to people with many health-related problems. Therefore, these factors will positively impact the global finger millet market.

According to a senior analyst at Technavio for research on food, “Apart from factors such as increase in gluten-free diets that is boosting the growth of the global market, other aspects such as the rise in new product launches, and growth in packaging and distributions channels are also influencing the growth of the global finger millet market globally.”
