Developing consumer-led health and nutrition products

Consumers are increasingly expecting products to be more adaptable and tailored to their individual health needs, and technologies are being developed to create an ecosystem built around genomics, a greater understanding of cellular mechanisms, innovation in food service, and the rise of the quantified self and digitisation.

This allows for science and technology insights for mass personalisation of ingredient profiles, expert insights to help consumers feel better and achieve new lifestyle goals. The COVID-19 pandemic has also accelerated the transition from general healthy eating to a more focussed proposition leveraging ingredients that promote immunity.

Our breadth of nutrition and health consulting experience in this arena has seen us delivering expert insight into consumer trends, demands, experience, behaviour, and attitudes towards new technologies like synthetic biology and genomics, through to ingredient innovation and personalisation. We also provide monitoring of the regulatory landscape surrounding product claims, both during product development and following launch.

From people to pets, we’ve delivered projects ranging from nutrition on-the-go, eating habits, to personalised nutrition, through to supporting health and wellness claims
