A universe unfolding: Uncovering the mysteries of the microbiome and its connection to health  - Video

Wed, 15 May 2024 20:24:40 GMT

Despite a deluge of new information — and a steady stream of microbiome-related studies expanding the available data on human microbiome composition and function — ingredient researchers are only beginning to understand the individual microbial species and their biological roles. Luckily, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are proving to be game changers in our understanding of these expanding datasets.  

Technology could bring transformational change through the development of predictive models for personalized therapeutic interventions or disease interception. But before that lofty goal is reached, “biotics” providers are discovering the impact that bacteria-based ingredients can have on a wide range of health systems beyond gut health, including the gut-brain axis, a connection to healthy skin, and the influence of dysbiosis on host immunity and disease.  

The video covers:  

Innovation in product development across a range of consumer-facing solutions that include prebiotics, probiotics, synbiotics and postbiotics.

The segment expansion of probiotics into sports nutrition, weight management, inflammation targeting and cosmetics, as well as bone health, women’s health, kidney and respiratory function, cognitive performance, stress and sleep.

The accumulation of in vivo and clinical data indicating that probiotics could represent important allies in the fight against obesity and associated metabolic health concerns.

Sports nutrition quits the gym and goes mainstream - Video

Wed, 15 May 2024 20:16:44 GMT

Sports nutrition is one of the strongest supplement categories. The sports and performance field carried a markedly different trajectory through the pandemic than all other supplement sectors — flat in 2020, while supplements as a whole boomed a historic 15% year-over-year growth with immunity, of course, rising multiples higher. Yet by 2022, sports nutrition recovered and experienced one of its highest growth years in decades — as the rest of the supplement world began correcting. Notably, the rise of sports nutrition is a mass market play more than it ever has been, moving out of many specialty retail outlets. In this dynamic sector, this video explores these ideas:  

Creatine is booming because it is branching into the mainstream in new health states and demographics.  
Esport athletes are legitimizing computer gaming — with the aid of next-gen nootropics.  
Which pre-workout nutraceuticals doubled in sales this past year — and why.
