The demand for probiotics in fortified foods is projected to remain high due to the increasing awareness about their benefits, and willingness of consumers to purchase premium products incorporated with probiotics.

Complexities in integrating probiotics in functional foods challenging the market growth
The development and commercial aspects of functional food products are rather complex, expensive, and uncertain. The factors behind the success of functional food product development are consumer demand, technological conditions, and legislative regulatory background. However, consumers’ knowledge of the health effects of specific ingredients can affect the acceptance of specific functional foods. The common functional ingredients, such as minerals, fiber, and vitamins are preferred over new and improved products, such as foods enriched with probiotics, prebiotics, flavonoids, carotenoids, and conjugated linolenic acid.
The researcher has to work in-depth to overcome all the challenges related to the selection and development of the strain and related production processes. Probiotic strains are prone to changes in pH and temperature. The strains must sustain while integrating with functional food stuffs. The basic requirement for probiotics is that products should contain sufficient numbers of microorganisms up to the expiry date. Thus, it must contain specific strains and maintain certain numbers of live cells to produce health benefits in the host. Different countries have decided on the minimum number of viable cells required in the product for it to be beneficial. The preservation of these probiotic microorganisms presents a challenge, as they are affected by the exposure to temperature, oxygen, and light.
