Medical nutrition addresses a group of medical food products that are used under the supervision of doctors or health practitioners for the nutritional management of a chronic condition or disease. In addition, medical nutrition products fulfill different nutritional requirements for the specific patient group and provide adequate nutrients to them. For instance, specific requirements for medical nutrition products are derived from the rise in group of people with metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes. Moreover, AIDS patients, burn patients, and patients with severe anorexia nervosa can also profit from this nutritional intervention.

The Vietnam medical nutrition market is expected to register substantial growth in the future, owing to rise in incidence of chronic diseases and surge in geriatric population across Vietnam. However, lack of awareness of nutrition problems among Vietnamese is projected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Conversely, rise in medical tourism in Vietnam is expected to offer remunerative opportunities for market players.
