Aging is not only a process of decline in the normal function of biological individuals, but also a natural process that everyone can't avoid. Aging is not only the change of external skin appearance, but also the challenge of physiology and metabolism, including immune aging, cognitive decline, bone and joint degradation and cardiovascular health.
As far as the whole market is concerned, the sub sectors related to anti-aging and healthy aging products have attracted the attention of consumers and capital in the past two years.
1 "Upgrade" of raw materials in iteration
At present, the market raw materials of health and aging products have been upgraded in many dimensions.
First, raw materials are developing from single to compound. Early anti-aging products may be more single core raw materials, such as coenzyme Q10, resveratrol, PQQ, quercetin, etc. now they are basically in the form of raw materials +.
Second, the anti-aging ingredients are also constantly upgraded. From resveratrol to NMN, there will certainly be more raw materials similar to NMN in the future, and the market demand has not been met.
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is the direct precursor of the basic molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) and the key component to increase the level of NAD + in cells.
Third, in the current anti-aging product formula, vitamin minerals and plant herbal raw materials began to increase gradually, and they all appeared in the form of multiple combinations.
2 The product population is constantly subdivided
Population differentiation has become a level that must be considered in product formulation development. At present, most anti-aging products are not aimed at subdivided groups of others
3 Function claims to be upgraded in integration
Healthy aging is an overall process, involving complex physical and metabolic levels. Therefore, the whole product development trend has shifted from simple single component products to more complex collaborative combination products.
4 Product dosage form urgently needs "breakthrough"
At present, aging products are mainly capsules and tablets, and powder and other forms of products are still relatively few.
5 Challenges and opportunities of healthy aging products
Although much progress has been made in the area of healthy ageing, challenges remain in trying to extend the health cycle. There are three main factors affecting biological aging, including genetic factors, biological factors and environmental factors (lifestyle). These factors are the problems to be considered for healthy aging products and services in the market.
In addition, we should recognize the need for an effective, personalized and scientific model for the assessment and evaluation of the nutritional status of the elderly. The model should include micronutrient status and will vary according to genetic (and epigenetic) susceptibility, diet and medical history. After solving the model problem, the market prospect of healthy and aging products will be more predictable.
