As the nutraceuticals industry evolves to meet the growing needs of consumers, branded ingredients supported by clinical research offer added value to product developers. Because consumers are increasingly demanding unquestionable quality and efficacy, branded ingredients will increasingly play a fundamental role within the marketplace.

Branded ingredients benefit developers by giving the product a symbol of quality, often coming with clinical studies that prove the product successfully does what it says. This provides substance for marketing the products, with any product claims increasing consumer trust. When it comes to consumers, trust is invaluable. The more information a supplier can provide about a product directly to consumers, the value is reinforced when the product is picked up in store or seen online. Education is underutilized within the supplement sector, and building trust through educating consumers will build a strong foundation for your new branded product.

Lipomyl™, for example, is a branded ingredient used for fat binding. This clinically researched ingredient comes equipped with an EFSA approved claim that it lowers cholesterol. It is approved by LRQA and stamped with an EC mark for European recognized safety. This information back up the product will make any product containing Lipomyl™ to blow competitors out of the water due to its testing and information.
