Dublin, June 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – The “The US Weight Loss and Diet Control Market” Marketdata LLC report was added to ResearchAndMarkets.com offer.

The U.S. weight loss market hit a record $ 78 billion in 2019, but suffered a 21% drop in value in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and recession. However, there were bright spots. Commercial chains have held up well, as have the meal replacement market, frozen diet meals and multi-level marketing channels.

Fitness clubs and most medical weight loss programs were the hardest hit, with contractions of 37% and 27%, respectively. Suppliers of weight loss products have had to turn to virtual meetings with customers and drop shipping of products. The technology has become more important, as Zoom meetings, applications and streaming services have increased in use. Due to pending demand and consumer weight gain in 2020, most vendors are looking for a strong rebound in 2021, as Americans are vaccinated and businesses reopen.

DIY plans still abound as consumers use free diet and fitness apps. Many untapped niches still exist.
