Women’s health will be a hot topic at SupplySide Global and category sponsor, Kyowa Hakko Bio Co., Ltd. (Booth 4265), a global leader in health ingredients innovation, will spotlight two branded ingredients important to female consumers.
Cognizin Citicoline is a patented ingredient backed by decades of clinical research with claims to support focus, memory, mental energy, and long-term brain health. According to a recent U.S. consumer survey from Nextin Research, 76% of female supplement consumers are concerned about their cognitive health. As one of the leading brands in brain health and cognitive support, Cognizin is positioned for use in women’s health products across all stages of life.
Setria Glutathione is the world’s top-selling branded glutathione. Nextin Research also discovered 79% of female supplement consumers are concerned about immune health, and many don’t believe they get enough antioxidants from their food. Setria is a potent antioxidant that fights oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals and maintaining cellular integrity. Setria’s benefits include support for immune health, skin health, respiratory health, and sports nutrition.
“Key need states for the women’s health category include everyday wellness — from immunity to energy to stress management and sleep — and long-term health security, including bone and joint health, cardiovascular health, and memory support,” said Karen Todd, Kyowa Hakko vice president, global brand marketing and director at large for industry organization Women in Nutraceuticals. “As a woman seeking these benefits from supplements and functional foods and beverages myself, I understand the value of clinically backed, efficacious ingredients like Cognizin and Setria.”
With a commitment to science-backed ingredients, Kyowa will feature two additional branded ingredients in its booth.
Pantesin Pantethine is a premium, pharmaceutical-grade form of pantethine, an active derivative of vitamin B5. With more than 40 years of clinical research across Asia and North America, Pantesin has been shown to help maintain healthy cholesterol levels and support overall heart health.
EYEMUSE is a heat-treated probiotic of Lacticaseibacillus paracasei KW3110 that has been shown to help maintain healthy eye function.
