The fall season creates unique opportunities in the supplement market. Find out which trends will boost your product lineup in this article!

Exploring the Fall 2025 Supplement Trends for Brand Owners

In 2023, the size of the global supplements market was $378.84 billion. It is projected to reach $745.94 billion by 2033, with a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.01%.¹

While the supplement industry continues to enjoy healthy market growth, that growth can change seasonally. Naturally, there are various reasons for this.

Consider that our bodies not only follow the circadian rhythms of day and night but also adapt to the changing seasons. Research suggests that during the fall, people may experience a decline in physical health due to several factors, including reduced sunlight exposure, increased susceptibility to illness, and shifts in dietary habits, such as consuming heavier foods. Additionally, shorter daylight hours can impact mood, leading some individuals to feel more sluggish or down. As a result, fall often brings a heightened focus on health and immunity.²

In this article, we’ll explore the supplement trends expected to shape the Fall of 2025. We’ll highlight key categories poised for growth and discuss research-backed nutraceutical ingredients that can add value to your formulations.

Supplement Types Trending in Fall 2025

Several supplement categories are expected to gain traction in the Fall of 2025, including:

Immune-Boosting Supplements
Stress and Mood Support
Gut Health Solutions
Nutricosmetics
Women’s Health Supplements
Joint and Inflammation Support

Additionally, emerging trends focus on evidence-based ingredients, bioavailable and enhanced absorption formulations, multi-functional supplements, proactive health and preventive solutions, and personalized supplements tailored for precision wellness. This article will explore each of these trends in detail.

Immune-Boosting Supplements

Changes in immune health occur during the transition from summer to fall, with decreasing temperatures and changing daylight hours impacting the body’s immune system. This often results in a decline in immune function due to factors like reduced Vitamin D production from lower sunlight exposure, increased susceptibility to respiratory infections, and potential stress from environmental changes, making individuals more prone to illnesses.³

Consequently, interest in immune support supplements rises during the fall months. This trend aligns with the global immune health supplement market, which was valued at $24.38 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $44.04 billion by 2032, driven in part by seasonal health concerns.⁴ Some of the trends in immune health supplements include the following:

Vitamin D – This vitamin is a potent immune system modulator⁵ with a variety of effects on immune system function which may enhance innate immunity and promote normal immune function.⁶
Vitamin C – This vitamin affects various components of the human immune response, including antimicrobial and natural killer cell activities, and lymphocyte (white blood cell) proliferation.⁷
Vitamin K – Vitamin K-dependent proteins play important roles in various immunomodulatory and antioxidant functions. This includes inflammation, which is part of the immune process.⁸
Vitamin A – This vitamin helps regulate the immune system by playing a role in the production of white blood cells that engulf bacteria and viruses.⁹
Zinc – This mineral is integral to the immune system¹⁰, affecting multiple immune activities from lymphocyte gene regulation to the skin barrier,¹¹ and decreasing oxidative stress markers.¹²
Elderberry – This herb supports antibody production, is a clinically tested immune booster, and significantly improved immune measures in 48 hours according to a published study.¹³ ¹⁴ ¹⁵
Ashwagandha – Ashwagandha has been shown to support immune health, significantly promoting healthy levels of immunoglobulin antibodies, as well as immunomodulating cytokines and lymphocytes.¹⁶

Stress and Mood Support

Increased stress in the fall, often referred to as “autumn anxiety,” can be caused by a combination of factors.¹⁷ Likewise, many people feel “down” or have the “winter blues” when the days get shorter in the fall and winter and feel better in the spring when longer daylight hours return.¹⁸ These changes in stress and mood may lead to an increase in the use of supplements to help address these issues.

The global supplement market mirrors this trend, with the stress relief supplement market projected to grow from $605 million in 2024 to $1.03 billion by 2034, at a CAGR of 5.5%.¹⁹ Likewise, the value of the mood support market was estimated at $656 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $1.3 billion by the end of 2033, with a CAGR of 6.4%.²⁰

There is some overlap in these numbers since mood support supplements are considered by some to help reduce feelings of occasional stress and anxiety.

Some of the trends in dietary supplements for stress and mood include the following:

Ashwagandha – This adaptogenic herb is used for mental and emotional well-being and supports immune function and sexual health.²¹ ²² ²³ ²⁴
Rhodiola – This is another adaptogenic herb that has been shown to increase physical endurance and productivity, help reduce fatigue and moodiness, and promote sexual health.²⁵ ²⁶ ²⁷
Saffron Extract – This herb helps protect the brain against oxidative damage and neurotoxicity while promoting a healthy mood in multiple studies.²⁸ ²⁹ ³⁰ ³¹ ³² ³³
L-Theanine – Various studies have examined the effects of this amino acid on stress and anxiety³⁴ ³⁵ ³⁶ ³⁷, demonstrating its effectiveness in reducing in physiological indicators of stress within 15 minutes, reductions in heart rate, inhibition of cortical neuron excitation, suppressing the initial stress response, and significantly reducing stress-induced anxiety.
L-Tryptophan – Not only is this amino acid used by the body to produce the neurotransmitter serotonin (which plays a role in stress adaptation)³⁸, but supplementation has been shown to result in fewer feelings of occasional anxiety³⁹ and a healthy mood.⁴⁰ ⁴¹
B Vitamins – These vitamins are involved in the function of the nervous system⁴² and play a role in helping to counter some of the negative effects of stress. Research on B-complex vitamins has demonstrated that their use has been able to improve measures of stress, vigor, tiredness, everyday mood including fatigue, and cognitive performance during intense mental processing.⁴³ ⁴⁴ ⁴⁵ ⁴⁶
Magnesium – This mineral is important for maintaining healthy nerve and muscle function⁴⁷, promoting muscle relaxation and reducing feelings of stress-related anxiety⁴⁸. Research suggests that it may help reduce certain reactions to stress⁴⁹, as well as reducing overall feelings of stress.⁵⁰ ⁵¹

Gut Health Supplements

Gut health and healthy digestion are vital to maintaining internal comfort and a sense of well-being. Consider that components of the gut microbiome play profound roles in gut health, including functioning as part of the digestive system, energy recovery from the metabolism of non-digestible components of foods, protection of a host from pathogenic invasion, and modulation of the immune system.⁵²

The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences states, “Differences in the microbiome may lead to different health effects from environmental exposures and may also help determine individual susceptibility to certain illnesses.”⁵³

Additionally, dietary patterns shift in the fall, with people consuming heavier foods and increasing their intake of total fat and saturated fat.⁵⁴ Since saturated fats are harder to digest than other fats and can be hard on the digestive system⁵⁵, this means the gut must work harder in the fall.

Therefore, trends in supplements for gut health tend to rise during the fall months. These trends include probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, and a combination of two or more of these known as synbiotics, as well as fiber supplements and digestive enzymes.

Probiotics – These friendly bacteria, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium longum, are defined as “live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.”⁵⁶ They promote digestion and gut health. The probiotics market size is expected to reach $213.1 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 12.4% from 2023 to 2032.⁵⁷
Prebiotics – Prebiotics are typically types of fiber, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and galactooligosaccharides (GOS), that serve as food for beneficial probiotic bacteria in the gut. By nourishing these bacteria, prebiotics help stimulate their growth and activity, supporting overall gut health.⁵⁸ The global prebiotics market was projected to reach a valuation of $6.67 billion by 2023, recording a CAGR of 6.3% from 2023 to 2033.⁵⁹
Postbiotics – A postbiotic can be any probiotic that has been pasteurized or heat-treated, such as Akkermansium mucinipahila and Lactobacillus plantarum L-137, yet still provides health benefits—a sort of zombie probiotic if you will. Although a postbiotic is not a live organism, it still provides probiotic-like effects including a range of gut health activities.⁶⁰ The global postbiotic supplements market was estimated to be valued at $10.8 million in 2024⁶¹, and is expected to reach $30.5 million by 2034 at a CAGR of 10.9%.
Synbiotics – Synbiotics (i.e., synergistic biotics) are a biotics combination, typically pre-and probiotics, but may include postbiotics as well. A symbiotic combination makes sense on a couple of levels. First, prebiotics feed and nurture probiotics, so there is a good rationale for the combination of the two. Now that postbiotics are available, a combination of all three makes for a comprehensive approach to supporting the health of the microbiome with the three categories of biotics.
Fiber Supplements – Dietary fiber sources can help relieve occasional constipation and promote regularity⁶². As an added benefit, some fibers like acacia gum can also help increase levels of healthy bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the intestinal tract.⁶³ The fiber supplements market was valued at $13.7 Billion in 2023 and is expected to reach about $19.42 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 5.11%.⁶⁴
Digestive Enzymes – Proteases, lipases, and amylases are digestive enzymes shown to help compensate for reduced enzyme production, thereby improving overall digestive capacity.⁶⁵ ⁶⁶ Such enzymes are available from vegan sources, as well as from pancreatic sources. The digestive enzyme supplement market size was valued at about $3.7 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow to $4.3 Billion by 2032 at a CAGR of 1.9%.⁶⁷

If you’re planning to introduce a probiotic product to the market, be sure to partner with probiotic supplement manufacturers who have proven experience formulating these specialized products.

Nutricosmetics Supplements

Cooler temperatures and lower humidity make fall a challenging season for skin and hair. Skin tends to become drier, leading to increased flakiness and itchiness, while hair can become more brittle and frizzier due to the lack of moisture in the air.⁶⁸ This drives nutritional supplement industry trends toward increased interest in nutricosmetics—nutraceuticals that support the natural beauty of skin, hair, and nails from within.⁶⁹

As a supplement category, it is often referred to as “beauty from within” or simply beauty supplements. The global beauty supplement market size was valued at $3.3 billion in 2024, and it is expected to reach $8.5 billion in 2034 with a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period.⁷⁰ Consequently, you’ll want to consider expanding into this category for your fall 2025 product lineup.

Also, keep in mind that there is an overlap in the “beauty from within” and “anti-aging” (or healthy aging) categories. After all, a change in the appearance of skin and hair is the most obvious outward sign of aging. In part, this is due to a decline in collagen levels which increases fine lines and wrinkles, decreases skin elasticity, and sometimes results in drier skin. Also, hair growth and thickness begin declining and there is often an increase in hair shedding. In these instances, the use of the nutraceuticals previously discussed may help to slow down these signs of skin and hair aging and generally help promote healthier-looking skin, hair, and nails during the fall.

Skin Health Nutraceuticals

Collagen – The size of the global collagen market in 2022 was $10.08 billion and was forecasted to reach approximately $23.02 billion by 2032 with a CAGR of 8.9%.⁷¹Collagen Market (By Source: Bovine, Marine, Porcine, Poultry; By Product: Gelatin, Hydrolyzed collagen, Native collagen, Synthetic collagen; By Application: Food and Beverage, Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, Nutraceuticals, Cosmetics, Others; By Type; By Form; By Product Category; By Function) – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, Regional Outlook, and Forecast 2023 – 2032. Precedence Research. Retrieved January 27, 2024 from https://www.precedenceresearch.com/collagen-market#:~:text=The%20global%20collagen%20market%20size,forecast%20period%202023%20to%202032. Collagen is arguably the most popular of all the skin health nutraceuticals. Two specific sources of collagens, grass-fed (bovine source) and marine collagen (fish source) are showing strong 10-year growth projections of $113.1 million to $279.6 million (CAGR of 8.6%)⁷²Grass-fed Collagen Market. Fact.MR. Retrieved September 24, 2024 from https://www.factmr.com/report/grass-fed-collagen-market. and $1.07 billion to $2.32 billion (CAGR of 8.0%)⁷³Marine Collagen Ingredients Market. Fact.MR. Retrieved September 24, 2024 from https://www.factmr.com/report/marine-collagen-ingredients-market., respectively. Both sources have strong human research demonstrating effectiveness:
- - Bovine Collagen Peptides – Highly bioavailable⁷⁴, this type of collagen has been shown⁷⁵ to support and stimulate the body’s own collagen production, increasing pro-collagen production by 65%, and increasing production of the critical skin protein elastin by 18%. Likewise, studies⁷⁶ ⁷⁷ ⁷⁸ ⁷⁹ have demonstrated that it has significantly reduced wrinkles, improved skin elasticity and moisture, reduced cellulite, and increased hair thickness.
  - Marine Collagen Peptides – Research⁸⁰ ⁸¹ ⁸² has demonstrated that marine collagen peptides reduced wrinkles, improved skin elasticity, maintained skin firmness, and improved skin tone and radiance while improving skin moisture. Other research⁸³ confirms that marine collagen peptides improved skin elasticity, reduced crows-feet wrinkles, and promoted skin firmness.
Ceramides – Ceramides play a key role in the skin’s barrier function. Supplementation studies⁸⁴ have shown improvements in skin Moisturization Index, reduced transepidermal water loss, increased skin elasticity, reduced skin wrinkles, improved skin smoothness and reduced skin roughness.
Hyaluronic Acid – Hyaluronic acid is present in skin and other connective tissue where it binds to water to help maintain hydration. In a supplementation study, it was found to increase skin moisture content and reduce wrinkles.⁸⁵
Astaxanthin – Human studies⁸⁶ ⁸⁷ have shown that this powerful antioxidant suppressed damage to skin barrier function, alleviated skin dryness by preserving the water-retention capacity of the skin, improved skin viscoelasticity and texture, significantly reduced the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improved the moisture content of dry skin, while supporting a shift toward characteristics of skin associated with a younger age and producing a strong antioxidant effect supporting facial skin rejuvenation.⁸⁸
Blood Orange Extract – Research has demonstrated that blood orange extract helped reduce UV-induced age spots and skin redness⁸⁹, while providing meaningful antioxidant properties.⁹⁰
Grapeseed Extract – Grape seed extract has been clinically tested to help reduce hyperpigmentation.⁹¹
Zinc – Helps improve non-cystic acne in clinical research⁹² ⁹³ ⁹⁴ ⁹⁵ ⁹⁶ ⁹⁷, likely due to the fact that people with acne have lower levels of zinc.⁹⁸ ⁹⁹ ¹⁰⁰ ¹⁰¹

Hair Health Nutraceuticals

Biotin – If you have a biotin deficiency resulting in hair loss¹⁰², biotin supplementation may help. It is unlikely that biotin supplementation alone will otherwise impact hair growth¹⁰³, although it may have value when combined with keratin.¹⁰⁴
Spermidine – This polyamine compound promotes hair shaft elongation and upregulated expression of the epithelial stem cell-associated keratins.¹⁰⁵ Human clinical studies¹⁰⁶ ¹⁰⁷ showed that supplementation with spermidine supported the anagen phase of hair growth, reduced hair shedding, and promoted hair thickness.
Pomegranate Extract – Human clinical research¹⁰⁸ found that a pomegranate extract helped reduce hair shedding while promoting hair growth and hair thickness.
Solubilized Keratin – Research¹⁰⁹ on supplementation with solubilized keratin resulted in improved hair structure and reduction in hair loss, as well as in improvement in skin structure.

Women’s Health Supplements

The size of the women’s health supplements was valued at $41.1 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $66.5 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.6%.¹¹⁰ Within this trending category, there are several subcategories. These include, but are not limited to menopause, fertility, longevity, and metabolic health.

Menopause – This natural transition in the life of women is associated with a reduction in estrogen production, cessation of menstruation, and some transitory symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings. Some nutraceuticals which have been shown to help reduce these symptoms include the following. Pueraria mirifica root extract, a natural phytoestrogen, works by binding to estrogen receptors. It was demonstrated to significantly reduce hot flashes, night sweats, nervousness, and vaginal dryness.¹¹¹ ¹¹² ¹¹³ ¹¹⁴ ¹¹⁵ ¹¹⁶ Black cohosh root extract, which is probably the best-known menopause support herb, has likewise been shown to relieve these same symptoms, as well as moodiness and sleeplessness.¹¹⁷ ¹¹⁸ ¹¹⁹ ¹²⁰ ¹²¹ Rheum rhaponticum root extract (a.k.a., Rhapontic Rhubarb), was able to relieve many of these same symptoms, but also helped promote urinary function and sexual function. ¹²² ¹²³ ¹²⁴ ¹²⁵ ¹²⁶
Fertility –One of the nutraceuticals with benefit for this purpose is maca root, whose fertility-enhancing properties were first described in 1653.¹²⁷ Another nutraceutical with good research is vitamin D. In fact, multiple human studies¹²⁸ have demonstrated that supplementation with vitamin D increased the odds of clinical pregnancy by 49% compared with taking a placebo. Other research¹²⁹ has shown similar effects.
Longevity – There are many factors associated with promoting a healthy lifespan. One such factor is NAD, an important coenzyme in the body involved in energy metabolism, and multiple biochemical processes in the body. NAD production decreases with age, a process linked to key hallmarks of aging. However, research suggests that increasing NAD levels may slow aspects of aging.¹³⁰ NAD precursors that have been shown to help increase NAD production include NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide), NR (nicotinamide riboside) and niacinamide.¹³¹ Another factor is autophagy, the body’s process of breaking down old and damaged cell parts, repurposing the salvageable components into new, usable cell parts while discarding the unusable or unneeded parts. A rice germ extract standardized for its spermidine contact has been shown in human clinical research¹³² to increase markers of autophagy.
Metabolic Health – Metabolic health refers to helping promote healthy glucose, insulin, and blood lipid levels. Numerous nutraceuticals have been shown to promote metabolic health. In human research¹³³ ¹³⁴, Indian gooseberry (a.k.a., Alma) extract has been shown to promote healthy serum lipid and HbA1c (a marker for long-term glucose control) levels already in a normal range. Thymoquine, a natural compound derived from black seed oil, was also found to be effective in promoting healthy glucose levels already in a normal range.¹³⁵ ¹³⁶ ¹³⁷ Chromium is known to enhance the action of insulin, and supplementation with certain forms of chromium has been shown to promote healthy glucose, and serum lipid levels already in a normal range.¹³⁸

Joint and Inflammation Support

Colder temperatures, beginning in the fall and extending into winter, are linked to increased inflammation, which can exacerbate joint discomfort and other inflammatory conditions. In one study¹³⁹, a 24.9% increase in an inflammatory marker (C-reactive protein) was seen for every 41-degree Fahrenheit decline.

The significance of this is that if you already have physical discomfort due to inflammation, such as joint inflammation due to physical overexertion¹⁴⁰ ¹⁴¹, then that discomfort may worsen as the temperatures drop.

Consequently, the demand for supplements that support joint health and reduce inflammation in a healthy population may rise during the fall. This trend aligns with the significant growth of the global bone and joint health supplements market, which was valued at $3.90 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.26% by 2030.¹⁴²

Nutritional supplements industry trends for joint and inflammation support include:

Turmeric (Curcumin) – In human studies¹⁴³ ¹⁴⁴, well-absorbed turmeric extract was found to improve joint comfort, improve walking distance, promote joint function, and reduce inflammation (delayed onset muscle soreness) in association with overexercising.
Boswellia – Boswellia extract may help promote joint comfort in as early as 5 days and promote physical function in as little as 7 days.¹⁴⁵ ¹⁴⁶
Ginger – Ginger extract has been shown to promote joint comfort in general, when standing and after walking.¹⁴⁷
Cucumber Extract – Human clinical research¹⁴⁸ ¹⁴⁹ ¹⁵⁰ has demonstrated that a cucumber extract promotes joint comfort, maintains healthy joint function, reduces exercise-related muscle soreness, improves muscle strength recovery associated with exercise, and has an anti-inflammatory effect in association with overexercising.
Water-Soluble Eggshell Membrane (WSEM) – In a healthy human population, a study¹⁵¹ demonstrated that WSEM improved the range of motion for the neck, spine, hips, and knees, improved physical activity levels, and promoted back comfort.
Type 2 Collagen – In a study¹⁵² with recreationally active individuals, type 2 collagen helped reduce inflammation in association with overexercising and promoted more robust muscular recovery.

Evidence-Based Ingredients

How important are evidence-based ingredients to consumers?

Well, data indicates that 59% of global consumers expect supplement efficacy to be supported by scientific evidence, and product claims are important to 50% of consumers. The bottom line is that consumers want dietary supplements to be safe and effective and supported by documented results.¹⁵³

Therefore, the answer to the question is, “Very important!”.

Now, consider that a survey¹⁵⁴ assessed consumer knowledge about and trust in dietary supplements. The results found both the knowledge about dietary supplements in the study group and trust in advertising them were low. A significant negative relationship was found between knowledge about dietary supplements and trust in advertising them among the general public.

Collectively, this makes a great case for utilizing evidence-based ingredients in your dietary supplement formulas. A good contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) can help you identify and choose appropriate ingredients to substantiate desired claims.

Bioavailable and Enhanced Absorption Formulations

Some nutraceuticals have reasonably good absorption and bioavailability, while others do not.

For example, research shows that the absolute bioavailability of resveratrol is about 1%.¹⁵⁵ This is often due to extensive first-pass metabolism in the liver, where much of the nutraceutical may be metabolized into inactive forms or excreted before reaching systemic circulation.

According to Nutrition Insight¹⁵⁶, some consumers are aware of bioavailability and are demanding more information about it. There are a few evidence-based technologies for improving absorption and bioavailability for select nutraceuticals. These include:

Microencapsulation – Enrobing active nutraceuticals in clean-label materials can provide protection to the active and improve its delivery in the gastrointestinal tract.
Agglomeration – This is the process of joining particles together to form larger, more cohesive pieces. Agglomeration can affect nutrient absorption by changing the physical properties of particles, such as their size, density, and porosity.¹⁵⁷

Multi-Functional Supplements

While consumers often choose their supplements based on a specific benefit they want to obtain, they also appreciate a multi-functional supplement that provides multiple benefits in addition to the one they originally wanted. An example is magnesium which has become a “holy grail” supplement due to its wide range of benefits, including sleep aid, mood improvement, and blood sugar regulation.¹⁵⁸

Other examples include astaxanthin, with human clinical research showing benefits for cardiovascular health, muscle endurance, eye fatigue, dyspepsia, youthful skin aging, fat metabolism, stress and immune function¹⁵⁹; and resveratrol with human studies demonstrating effectiveness for cardiovascular health, inflammation, immune health, breast health, muscle health, cognitive health, weight loss, blood sugar/insulin resistance, and liver health.¹⁶⁰

So, when formulating new products, keep ingredients like these in mind so that you can provide multi-functional supplements to customers.

Proactive Health and Preventive Supplements

It’s no surprise that consumers typically look for supplements to address their personal and specific health concerns—and that is not likely to change. What is changing, however, is that consumers are taking a more proactive role by prioritizing prevention, as indicated by the fact that this is the #3 trend in the Innova Market Insights Top 10 Trends 2024 survey.¹⁶¹ Product launches are now focusing on the ingredients that promote health and the proactive health benefits. Specific areas of interest include healthy aging, mental well-being, stress, anxiety, weight management, heart health, and joint and bone health.

In the aforementioned survey, consumers indicated that they are looking for proactive health benefits that are targeted to specific body functions. Each generation has different priorities. For Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z, weight management is a top concern. For Boomers, it is heart health and weight management. Although heart health is the number two concern for Gen X and Millennials. Gen Z is mostly focused on skin health.

Personalized Supplements & Precision Wellness

Precision wellness and personalized supplements are flip sides of the same coin. Precision is a healthcare practice that uses data to create personalized plans to improve a person’s health. Personalized supplements are the result of using that data. In 2023, the Global Personalized Nutrition and Supplements Market was valued at $14.6 billion and is expected to reach $37.3 billion by 2032.¹⁶²

Precision wellness and personalized supplements are a departure from the one-size-fits-all approach. Genetic testing has been used for this purpose, and digital platforms, including AI and data analytics, are also being used for personalized recommendations. In these scenarios, user behavior is analyzed and supplement recommendations are made accordingly.¹⁶³

Q: What is the future of collagen supplements?

The future of collagen supplements looks promising! The global collagen market was valued at $10.08 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach approximately $23.02 billion by 2032. Collagen remains one of the most popular nutraceuticals for skin health, with demand continuing to rise. Partnering with an experienced collagen supplement manufacturer can help brands capitalize on this growing market and develop high-quality products tailored to consumer needs.

Q: Why is gut health important in the fall?

People often start eating heavier foods during the fall. This includes those containing higher levels of total fat and saturated fat. These are more difficult to digest than other fats and can be hard on the digestive system. Consequently, the gut has to work harder in the fall. As a result, at this time there is a greater interest in the use of dietary supplements for gut health, including probiotics, fiber, and digestive enzymes.

Q: What makes a supplement “evidence-based”?

An evidence-based supplement is typically one that provides ingredients shown in human research to be effective for the purpose intended. Furthermore, those ingredients need to be present at the correct levels used in the research. Alternatively, an evidence-based supplement can also be one where a human study was conducted on the finished supplement itself.
