Ingredient Claims Confusion: Strategies for Validation & Building Consumer Trust
Francine Schoenwetter
Over the last 21 years, sales of supplements more than quadrupled and consumers gained access to hundreds of new supplement brands and products. During that same time, however, the industry has endured the damaging impact of negative research studies and intensifying media scrutiny. Though there may be significant headwinds in the near term, industry also faces great potential as science discovers clear and compelling links between nutrition and human health. But achieving that future potential means industry must strive to maintain the confidence of consumers and practitioners and successfully navigate these troubled waters today.

Taking the science to task
Q&A with Greg Horn
Greg Horn is CEO of Specialty Nutrition Group and has worked for companies that include Garden of Life and GNC. Horn is leading an effort to sort through the science of nutrition and evaluate the studies for rigor and relevance. Horn says creating a database of what the best science says about nutrition—whether it’s positive or negative about particular ingredients—is essential to help grow the industry in the face of media skepticism and consumers demanding more evidence and transparency. Culling the good studies from the bad may also help product developers create formulations that deliver on the promise of nutrition.

Risky categories like weight loss, sexual health, and cognition also ripe with opportunity
Closing in on $39 billion, the supplement industry revealed a kind of resilience in 2015, but a resilience that is both unremarkable in the broad view and perhaps counterintuitive in the finer points.
Overall, NBJ estimates the market grew 5.9 percent to $38.8 billion in a year punctuated by a steady stream of negative headlines. That growth may seem a small uptick from the 5.1 percent in 2014, but, against the assumptions of many, the categories that took the most heat also showed the most growth.
