Understanding Medical Foods for Inborn Errors of Metabolism
Medical foods for inborn errors of metabolism are specialized dietary supplements formulated for individuals with genetic conditions that impair their metabolic processes. These products are tailored to meet the unique nutritional needs of patients, helping manage their dietary requirements effectively and prevent nutritional deficiencies related to these metabolic disorders.

Genetic Disorders as a Primary Driver of Market Expansion
The increasing prevalence of genetic or inherited disorders is a key factor propelling the medical foods market for inborn errors of metabolism.
