South Korea, India, and Japan were the three markets with the greatest number of new omega-3 product launches in Asia, according to a new report published by The Global Organisation for EPA and DHA Omega-3s (GOED).
The year 2019 was a solid one for the omega-3 business, with sales remaining steady. In the US, the market was mostly flat, but strong regional growth in the Asia-Pacific region and other emerging markets led to category growth overall.
Using the correct methods and engaging laboratories with the right expertise are needed when measuring omega-3 product quality, in order to help safeguard the sector's reputation.
China has surpassed Europe as the second largest country for omega-3 value share for the first time, only behind the US in 2017, according to the Global Organisation of EPA and DHA Omega-3s (GOED).
GOED (the Global Organization for EPA and DHA) is disputing the results of an Australian study that claims that excessive oxidation is compromising the health benefits of fish oil supplements sold in Australasia.
