Key issues examined by this report...
  • Opportunities in weight loss. There are still many unexploited opportunities in the weight control and beauty categories. These include targeting demographics such as teenagers, and specific life-stages.
  • Resurgence of calcium. Despite recent innovations, calcium will never re-emerge as a blockbuster in its own right until marketers can show consumers the significance of intake or deficiency. Some companies have utilized portable bone scanners for marketing purposes. Fonterra integrated this concept into company marketing and was highly successful in delivering a “bone health message” to the Asian market.
  • UK government backs pregnancy diet. In late 2007 the UK’s Heath Secretary outlined plans for 2009 which will involve giving a one-off payment to women when 7 months pregnant. This initiative, known as the “Health Pregnancy Grant”, will also be combined with professional advice on how to maintain a balanced diet. It is clear that the link between dietary optimization during periods of growth and development is becoming more important.
The women’s health market has traditionally been focussed on weight control and pregnancy. However, scientific advances in gender-specific nutrition, applications of new and existing ingredietns and a fragmenting market, have led to new and emerging opportunities in women’s health. Such opportunities include targeting specific life-stages including menopause and ageing, and building brands that create an emotional attachment with the individual female.
