FACTORS FUELING THE
SUPPLEMENT TREND
Longevity and Anti-Ageing
The pursuit of extended lifespan and improved
quality of life has led many to seek supplements
purported to have an琀椀-ageing proper琀椀es.
Ingredients like NAD+ precursors are gaining
a琀琀en琀椀on for their poten琀椀al role in cellular energy
produc琀椀on and ageing processes.
Nutrient Gaps
Modern diets o昀琀en lack essen琀椀al nutrients,
promp琀椀ng individuals to turn to supplements
to 昀椀ll these gaps. Factors such as soil deple琀椀on,
processed foods, and dietary restric琀椀ons
contribute to this de昀椀ciency, increasing reliance
on supplementa琀椀on.
Weight Management and Metabolic Health
The popularity of weight management drugs,
such as GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic, has
spurred interest in supplements that support
metabolic health and weight loss. Consumers
seek natural alterna琀椀ves or adjuncts to
pharmaceu琀椀cal interven琀椀ons for managing
weight and metabolic condi琀椀ons.
Mainstream Acceptance and Clean Medicine
Supplements have transi琀椀oned from niche
products to mainstream health solu琀椀ons. In
Australia, for instance, daily supplement intake
has surged, with 66% of the popula琀椀on now
incorpora琀椀ng vitamins and supplements into their
rou琀椀nes, up from 34% the previous year.
This widespread acceptance has given rise to
the concept of “clean medicine,” emphasising
supplements free from unnecessary addi琀椀ves,
ar琀椀昀椀cial ingredients, and poten琀椀al toxins.
Consumers are increasingly demanding
transparency and purity in their health products,
aligning with broader trends toward clean and
natural living.
THE ROLE
OF HYPERPERSONALISED
SUPPLEMENTS
IN DETOXIFICATION
Detoxi昀椀ca琀椀on supplements
aim to support the body’s
natural elimina琀椀on
of toxins. Hyperpersonalised supplements
enhance this process by
tailoring ingredients to
an individual’s speci昀椀c
detoxi昀椀ca琀椀on needs, based
on gene琀椀c, metabolic,
and lifestyle factors. This
customised approach seeks
to improve e昀케cacy and
safety in detox regimens.
