The analysts forecast the Global Vitamin D Testing Market to grow at a CAGR of 32.36 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increase in aging and chronically ill populations worldwide. The Global Vitamin D Testing Market has also been witnessing the increase in product approvals. However, the stringent regulatory requirements could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.

The Global Vitamin D Testing market is experiencing a significant increase in approvals of the products of the leading vendors.

Moreover, as a result of the changes in lifestyle and food habits, the majority of the population is prone to several diseases. This increases the demand for various diagnostic procedures, including vitamin D testing. Presently, vitamin D deficiency is associated with several diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart attack, and depression.

Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the stringent regulatory approval process for vitamin D testing devices, thus leading to delayed approval of devices.
