review

Summer is a time for fun, outdoor activities, and lighter clothing. With this seasonal shift, there is growing interest in summer supplements — specific types of dietary supplements supporting adaptation to this change of seasons. During the summer of 2025, we anticipate greater consumer demand for high-quality supplements formulated to promote hydration and electrolyte balance, beauty and skin health, sports and recovery, digestive health and gut support, liver support, weight management, and sleep. This article will review these summer supplement trends in greater detail.

Trending Supplement Types for Summer 2025

Let’s start this review of summer trending supplements by discussing hydration and electrolyte balance.

Hydration and Electrolyte Balance

During summer, warmer weather encourages more outdoor recreation and fitness activities. This often leads to increased perspiration, creating a greater need for hydration and electrolyte supplements to prevent dehydration. These supplements typically contain essential electrolyte minerals like sodium, potassium, and magnesium, as well as nutraceuticals that support energy, endurance, performance, and recovery. With so many nutraceutical options for hydration and electrolytes, brand owners should collaborate with their contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) to create new dietary supplements that stand out in the market.

The hydration and electrolyte supplement category has experienced significant growth over the past few years. Globally, the hydration supplement reached an estimated $36 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.9%, reaching $82.7 billion by 2034¹. Furthermore, as of September 2024, SPINS data² indicate that the hydration and electrolyte supplements category grew by 49.3% year-over-year in the United States.

Beauty and Skin Health Supplements

The summer months are synonymous with increased skin exposure as people wear shorts and t-shirts, which increases the risk of UV-related skin damage and photoaging, also known as premature skin aging. To address this, savvy consumers are turning to the latest supplement trends, which include using dietary supplements for skin health alongside sunscreen. Popular nutraceuticals to consider for these supplements are:

Antioxidants – Lycopene, beta-carotene, vitamin E, and selenium help mitigate UV-induced skin aging³ and improve overall skin appearance⁴.
Astaxanthin – Shown to provide antioxidant protection⁵, improve skin dryness and wrinkles⁶ and support some measures of younger looking skin⁷.
Ceramides – Substantially promotes skin moisturization, reduces trans epidermal water loss, improves dryness and elasticity⁸.
Collagen peptides – Promote collagen production in skin, help reduce fine lines/wrinkles, promote skin moisturization and elasticity⁹ ¹⁰.

The global skin care supplements market reached an estimated $12.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to growth at a CAGR of 8.1% to reach $21.3 billion by 2030.¹¹ In addition, as of September 2024, SPINS data¹² indicate that the hair, skin, and nails beauty supplement category grew by about 100% year-over-year.

Sports and Recovery

During summer, people engage in more outdoor activities like running, hiking, and swimming as part of their recreation and fitness routines. According to supplement industry trends, many consumers are also focused on enhancing their sports performance and recovery. A variety of well-researched nutraceuticals can support these goals, including:

Black Ginger Extract – This herb contains polymethoxyflavones shown to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and physical performance by improving oxidative stress and lactate¹³, as well as supporting muscle strength, endurance and speed¹⁴ ¹⁵.
Creatine Monohydrate – This is one of the most well-researched nutraceuticals for sports nutrition. In addition to athletic and exercise improvement, creatine supplementation may enhance post-exercise recovery, injury prevention, thermoregulation, rehabilitation, and neuroprotection.¹⁶
Whey Protein – A significant body of research has demonstrated the benefits of whey protein isolate daily. Studies have shown that when used in combination with strength training for 6-10 weeks, there was increased lean body mass, strength, and muscle hypertrophy compared to placebo.¹⁷ ¹⁸ ¹⁹

The global sports nutrition market size was valued at $45.24 billion in 2023 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 7.5% by 2030²⁰. In addition, SPINS data²¹ shows that, as of September 2024, there was a year-over-year 24.4% increase in the performance nutrition category (a.k.a., sports nutrition).

Digestive Health and Gut Support

Summer often brings dietary changes as people grill more outdoors and travel, leading to increased dining out and shifts in eating habits. These changes can impact digestion, prompting consumers to turn to supplements for support. Many well-researched nutraceuticals are available to promote healthy digestion, including:

Probiotics/Prebiotics/Postbiotics – These nutraceuticals play a role in the digestion/breakdown of certain foods in the intestinal tract and may help reduce gas and bloating. Examples include Lactobacillus acidophilus²² ²³ and Bifidobacterium longum²⁴ ²⁵ (probiotics), fructooligosaccharides²⁶ and xylooligosaccharides²⁷ (prebiotics), and Lactobacillus plantarum²⁸²⁹ and Akkermansium mucinipahila.
Digestive enzymes – Proteases, lipases and amylases are digestive enzymes shown to help compensate for reduced enzyme production, thereby improving overall digestive capacity³⁰ ³¹. Such enzymes are available from vegan sources as well as from pancreatic sources.
Fibers – Dietary fiber sources can help relieve occasional constipation and promote regularity³². As an added benefit, some fibers like acacia gum can also help increase levels of healthy bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the intestinal tract³³.

The size of the global digestive health products market was valued at $55.77 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% by 2030 to $68.17 billion.³⁴

Liver Support Supplements

In addition to dining on indulgent foods, the summer months often involve increased alcohol consumption, which can put extra strain on the liver to process toxins. As a result, dietary supplements featuring nutraceuticals that support the liver’s detoxification process are highly appealing. Effective options for this include:

Milk thistle extract – This active compound in this herb is similar in which it protects against glutathione depletion³⁵ and increases liver glutathione status³⁶, which is important since a major pathway of detoxification in the liver is the glutathione pathway.
Methionine, vitamins B6, B12 and folate, and betaine – These support conjugating methyl groups to toxins in in the methylation pathway³⁷, another important liver detoxification pathway.
Quercetin and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) – These two nutraceuticals support the Acetylation detoxification pathway in the liver. ³⁸ ³⁹

The size of the global detox support supplement market was valued at $37.7 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% to $68 billion by 2030.⁴⁰

Weight Management

As summer approaches, many people start focusing on getting in shape for bathing suit season. This shift in priorities often leads to a surge in the popularity of weight management supplements.

Effective nutraceuticals to promote weight loss include:

Black ginger (Kaempferia parviflora) extract – Three human clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of this herb for reducing abdominal fat⁴¹ ⁴² ⁴³.
Carob and Opuntia cladodes – Multiple studies have shown that this botanical combination was able to help with appetite control⁴⁴ ⁴⁵ ⁴⁶ ⁴⁷.
Akkermansia muciniphila – The postbiotic version of this nutraceutical appears to support GLP-1 production while reducing fat mass and supporting metabolic markers⁴⁸ ⁴⁹.
Cuminum cyminum L. (cumin), Mentha longifolia L. (horse mint) and Olea europaea L. (olive) leaf, and Alchemilla vulgaris L. (lady’s mantle) for promoting weight loss⁵⁰ ⁵¹ ⁵² ⁵³.

The global weight loss supplement market size was valued at $29.96 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow a CAGR of 13.70% by 2030⁵⁴. One of the reasons for this significant growth has to do with the meteoric rise in the popularity of GLP-1 agonist drugs used for weight management. In part, this has translated to an increased interest in the use of nutraceutical products that may also support weight management. Additionally, this has also led to interest in the use of supplements may help address some of the issues associated with the use of these drugs. Such issues include loose, sagging skin on the face or buttocks, as well as the loss of lean mass which occurs as a result of rapid weight loss. Nutraceuticals which may help in these instances include:

Collagen – As a structural protein it is ideal for combatting saggy skin. Collagen peptides have been shown⁵⁵ to support and stimulate the body’s own collagen production, increasing pro-collagen production by 65%, as well as increase production of the critical skin protein elastin by 18%.
Pea protein – This protein helps promote lean muscle mass when used in combination with strength training⁵⁶.
Creatine – This tripeptide serves as an anabolic signal for muscle growth, acting as the chemical messenger that links increased muscle activity with the production of new muscle tissue.⁵⁷ ⁵⁸
Vitamin D3 and K2 (as MK-4 and MK-7) – These vitamins can help address the bone density aspect of lean mass loss⁵⁹ ⁶⁰ ⁶¹ ⁶² ⁶³.

Sleep Aids

During the summer, longer daylight hours and higher temperatures can disrupt regular sleep patterns. The extended daylight can delay melatonin production, making it harder to fall asleep at the usual bedtime. Similarly, higher temperatures can also interfere with sleep. Evidence-based nutraceuticals that support healthy sleep and can be used in supplements include:

Phytomelatonin – Plant-derived melatonin (or phytomelatonin from St. John’s wort or tomatoes) offers a natural alternative to synthetic melatonin, while still providing the sleep supportive properties. In fact, 1 mg and 3 mg of phytomelatonin was shown to be as effective as or more effective than 10 mg of synthetic melatonin in specific cohorts of participants in a large randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial⁶⁴.
Glycine – Supplementation with glycine has been shown to help lower body core temperature, which makes it easier to fall asleep⁶⁵.
GABA – This nutraceutical helps create a sense of relaxation⁶⁶ ⁶⁷, making it easier to calm the mind prior to bedtime.

The size of the global sleep support supplement market was valued at $7.6 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow a CAGR of 5.2% to $12.9 by 2030⁶⁸.

Trends in Dietary Supplement Manufacturing

Trends in dietary supplement manufacturing include labeling and transparency and ethical sourcing of ingredients.

Clean Labeling and Transparency

Clean labeling is a trend that is rapidly gaining popularity. In fact, the global clean label ingredients market size was estimated at $120 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to $168 billion by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate of 4.3%1. In this context, clean label refers to the standpoint of consumer impressions, there are three primary meanings that consumers associated with the term “clean label”: 1) the absence of additives (or at least their minimal use), 2) the use of natural ingredients, and 3) sustainable, environmentally friendly positioning. Products are deemed to be clean label if they carry environmental benefits. Environmental messages are gaining ground at 16% CAGR.⁶⁹

Transparency is also an important consideration with consumers. In this case, transparency is the practice of sharing information about how supplements are produced. This includes the use of excipients. An example would be the elimination of magnesium stearate in favor of acceptable alternatives (e.g. rice-based materials), which are also regarded as being clean label. Also, although not strictly a necessity, the use of organic and non-GMO ingredients aligns nicely with the clean label/transparency paradigm.

Ethical Sourcing of Ingredients

Ethical ingredient sourcing is a trending issue in the dietary supplement industry. Ethical sourcing is defined as, “a responsible and sustainable method to organize a supply chain and their original sources of raw materials.” Ultimately, it is the responsibility of entities in the public sector to monitor that the products they are acquiring have been ethically sourced—in addition to ensuring that the health and safety of employees is protected in the process.” ⁷⁰ In addition to social considerations, there are also economic benefits associated with ethical, including mitigating risk mitigation with regard to reputation damage, which can result in financial losses.

Another aspect to ethical sourcing is to be sure that raw materials used in your products are produced using only Fair and Ethical methods and comply with current Governmental Environmental, Health & Safety Regulations both domestically and internationally. Fair and Ethical means that the ingredients are produced using methods that do not compromise the welfare of the people or environments associated with their production, and promote the sustainability of the people, their environments and their culture. It also means that all of the workers involved in agriculture and processing of the material(s) are paid fairly, are not subject to forced labor, and do not fit the UNICEF definition of child labor. Fair and Ethical also means that the workers are not subjected to cruel or dangerous working conditions, and that sustainable agricultural practices are employed.

New Innovations in Supplement Formats for Summer 2025

In consideration of the warmer weather, there might be a preference for supplements in convenient formats. Such formats include effervescent tablets or powder stick packs that can be easily dissolved/mixed into a drink while on-the-go or away from home.

Effervescent Tablets

Effervescent tablets provide a characteristic fizzing effect as they dissolve in water and release their valuable nutraceuticals. Flavors such as lemon-lime and berry can be used, providing the perfect sense of refreshment for summer. Additional benefits of effervescent tablets include the quick release of nutraceuticals with potential for faster absorption of these ingredients, and the ability to provide substantial amounts of these same actives due to their drinkable form.

Powder Stick Packs

Powders offer similar benefits as effervescent tablets due to their mixability in water. However, in order to maintain the convenience factor of the on-the-go summer lifestyle, the use of stick packs or other individual serving packets of powders are likely to be a preferred option over cannisters of powdered supplements. This will allow consumers to grab an stick pack/packet and take it with them so they can add it to the bottled water they’ll be using to rehydrate during outside activities.
