In recent times, obesity has become one of the most challenging health problems in the world. According to the WHO, the number of overweight children under the age of five in 2010 was around 42 million, globally. Obese people are more likely to develop diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases at a young age. Obesity rate is the highest in the U.S., as around 36.5% of the total U.S. population is obese. The U.K. (24.8%) has the highest obese population in Europe, while Australia (28.3%) leads in the Asia-Pacific region. High obesity rate among children is a major concern for parents. Obesity is also a major concern in adults, as is the rising number of diabetes cases globally. The WHO noted that around 347 million people worldwide had diabetes in 2013, these factors led to the increase in demand of low calorie food over the last few years. The demand for low-calorie food is also increasing due to changing lifestyle, increasing number of health conscious people, and growing consumer confidence in low-calorie products due to their natural claims.

The emerging markets such as India, China and Brazil, have rising number of diabetes patients, fuelling the demand for low-calorie food. For instance, low-calorie products such as Sugar Free, Glucerna SR, and Splenda tablets offer opportunity for Low-calorie Food Manufacturers in these regions.
