The increase in the geriatric population is significantly contributing to the growth of the medical foods market. At the molecular and cellular level, aging is caused by the accumulation of a range of biomolecular damage throughout time. This results in a gradual loss of functional capacity, as well as an increased risk of disease and eventually, death. These changes are not linear or continuous, and they have been only distantly related to a person's chronological age.

As people get old, their dependency on certain nutritional foods increases especially medical foods to manage their health from chronic and age-related diseases.

For instance, according to the US agency for international public health WHO, the global population aged 60 years and older will increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 from 1 billion in 2020. By 2050, the global population of adults aged 60 and up will have doubled (2.1 billion). Between 2020 and 2050, the number of people aged 80 and more is predicted to triple, reaching 426 million. Therefore, the increase in the geriatric population is expected to propel the growth of the medical foods market.
