“Major retailers such as Costco, Walmart, and Whole Foods are making it mandatory for food and cosmetics producers to bring about sweeping changes in the products they supply. Food manufacturers have started replacing artificial colors and flavors with natural ingredients. This has increased the demand for essential oils, among other natural ingredients,” said Amber Chourasia, one of Technavio’s lead analysts for health and wellness research.

“Essential oils have antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. The demand for these oils has rapidly grown in the medicinal segment because they are said to act as natural cures without any serious side effects. For instance, tea tree oil is antiseptic and antifungal in nature. It can prevent or cure acne, cold sores, warts, and burns,” added Amber.
