Highlights
Many consumers do believe that certain foods can have a positive impact on long-term and current health. This has helped facilitate wider acceptance of the term 'functional foods'. Awareness of calcium's role in promoting bone health is particularly high, yet many consumers fail to meet recommended intakes
Over 60% of US respondents considered the ""addition of nutrients and other substances not usually found in that food and beverage, e.g. calcium"" to be either 'very' or 'somewhat appealing'a sentiment only neared in Europe by Italy (55%). Japanese consumers were among the least attracted
An aging society is a key driver of the intensifying focus (at least in the health and nutrition community) on bone and joint health as ailments are most prevalent among older individuals. As consumers get older, they are increasingly forced to seek solutions to minimize the discomfort caused by problems such as osteoporosis and arthritis
