Report Code: FBR 0378 Report Format: PDF + Excel

Yogurt Market Overview

Yogurt Market size was estimated at $132.4 billion in 2020, projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period 2021-2026. People's growing knowledge of the health advantages of yogurt, as well as their growing awareness of nutritious foods, are key factors driving Yogurt Industry development. Lactic acid bacteria, such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, forms yogurt, a popular coagulated dairy product. It is prepared by fermenting milk with cultures like Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. These bacteria create lactic acid during yogurt formation, which lowers the pH and causes milk protein to coagulate. Carbonyl molecules, non-volatile or volatile acids, and exopolysaccharides, among other metabolites, have a significant impact on yogurt quality. Protein, calcium, vitamins B6 and B12, riboflavin, potassium, and magnesium are all abundant in yogurt. Yogurt has numerous health benefits owing to its high nutritional value. It aids in the improvement of immunity, deterrence of type 2 diabetes, strengthening of bones and teeth, prevention of digestive disorders, and reduction of blood pressure and bad cholesterol. Manufacturers have also created a broad range of probiotic, stirred, creamy, and pulp-laced yogurt variations in recent years. The growing global demand for functional (probiotic) dairy foods is fueled in part by consumer interest in health-promoting diets. Yogurt is thought to be the best vehicle for delivering healthy functional nutrients. Owing to its health-promoting characteristics as an anti-stress, anti-hypertensive, and anti-diabetic agent, gamma-amino-butyric acid has promise as a bioactive component in functional meals. Streptococcus thermophilus is a non-pathogenic, facultative anaerobic lactic acid (LAB) bacterium that has a long history of usage in the home and industrial production of coagulated dairy products, particularly yogurt. Streptococcus thermophilus, as a dairy starter, may quickly convert lactose to lactic acid, causing a fast drop in pH and coagulation of milk proteins (casein). Furthermore, this bacteria provides the yogurt with a variety of good processing qualities, including taste, acidity, viscosity, and water holding capacity.
