What Is the Biggest R&D Barrier in Functional Nutrition?

I’m interested in hearing from food scientists, R&D professionals, ingredient suppliers and product developers working on functional foods and beverages.

As food and nutrition become more closely connected with preventive wellness, product teams are exploring ingredients and formulations associated with areas such as gut health, metabolic health, immunity, healthy ageing and personalised nutrition.

However, moving from a promising concept to a commercially viable product can involve several challenges:

  • Ingredient efficacy and stability

  • Taste and texture

  • Bioavailability

    My local supermarket shelfs are bursting with energy drinks!

    My local supermarket shelves are bursting with energy drinks lately ⚡🥤 — from plant-based boosters to “clean caffeine” shots. Crazy how fast this category is growing! #FunctionalBeverage #EnergyBoost #FoodTrends

    Same — I walked past the aisle and could’ve sworn a new brand popped up every week! Tried a “clean caffeine + L-theanine” one yesterday — actually gave steady energy without the crash. Anyone else tried one?
