According to insights from Goldman Sachs Research, the global market for antiobesity medications (AOMs) is projected to reach a staggering $100 billion by 2030.1
This remarkable growth offers an unparalleled opportunity for food, beverage and dietary supplement manufacturers to tackle the unique challenges faced by consumers who are actively using these treatments or transitioning away from them.
