GLP-1 Weight-Loss Drugs Influence Food Industry and Prompt India’s Regulatory Standards
As GLP-1 weight-loss drugs like semaglutide gain popularity globally and in India, food companies are adapting by developing protein- and fibre-rich products tailored for users who eat less. Brands such as Nestlé and Conagra are creating GLP-1-friendly offerings, while Indian businesses like EatFit Lab are also entering this niche. Concurrently, Indian authorities are establishing official quality standards for semaglutide to ensure uniformity and safety amid a growing domestic manufacturing market expected to reach $347 million by 2035.
