Abstract
Introduction
Growing interest in heart health products reflects the broader demand for
functional food and drinks. Consumers are generally aware of the importance of
maintaining good cardiovascular health and that something needs to be done in
order to reverse the increase in related health problems such as diabetes.
However, inhibitors such as trust issues regarding functional products still
remain.
Scope of this research
- Detailed insights and analysis documenting the drivers and inhibitors of
heart health enhancing products
- Analysis documenting the relative importance consumers place on
cardiovascular health and how this varies by socio-demographics
- Strategic conclusions combined with actionable recommendations for all
industry players looking to fully capitalize on this growing segment
- Countries covered: France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden,
UK, US, Australia, Japan, South Korea, China, India, Brazil and Russia.
Research and analysis highlights
Consumers are clearly concerned by the healthiness of their hearts but
sedentary lifestyles and the prevalence of fatty foods and beverages mean that
the number of heart health problems is increasing year-on-year. The threat of
obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease is growing all the time.
Consumers do believe that certain foods can have a positive impact on
long-term and current health. This has helped facilitate wider acceptance of
the term ' functional foods' . Fiber and omega-3 are two ingredients which
particularly resonate with consumers for their heart health benefits.
More can be done to raise awareness of heart health problems and the actions
that can be undertaken to prevent them. Women mistakenly believe breast cancer
to be a greater threat to them than cardiovascular disease. Ensuring that
consumers understand the real implications of heart health problems is key to
maximizing interest in the category.
Key reasons to purchase this research
- Consumer understanding: obtain a detailed understanding of consumer
attitudes and behaviors towards heart health enhancing products
- Market understanding: identify the key heart health growth markets and
product innovation trends in 15 countries across four territories
- Ideation: find inspiration for innovative formulations and product
positioning which takes advantage of consumers' evolving dietary preferences

TREND: Consumers are increasingly turning to functional food and drink products that claim to answer their heart health needs
- The addition of functional nutrients to food and beverages is appealing to
some consumers
- Improving their own heart health is an important consideration for many
consumers
- However, some industry experts believe that heart health is ' over hyped'
- Healthy foods are not always available to consumers
- Growth in the market value of functional foods formulated for improving
heart health is strong in all regions, but is most apparent in the BRIC
countries
- Key takeouts and implications: nutraceutical products hold definite appeal
to consumers, but there is still a considerable degree of skepticism which
must be addressed
INSIGHT: Interest in, and consumption of heart healthy functional food and drink products is influenced by age and gender
- Males are paying higher levels of attention to heart health than females
- Older consumers show a greater concern about heart health
- Key takeouts and implications: heart health problems are particularly
dangerous for women and seniors so they are the consumer groups who require
the most attention

are often viewed with suspicion by consumers in western nations
- The level of trust attributed to heart health claims by consumers varies
significantly by geography
- Key takeouts and implications: consumer trust in products which tout heart
health credentials has not yet been well established, and therefore needs to
be consolidated

their benefits towards heart health
- Flavoxine is an example of a heart healthy nutraceutical that studies show
as being beneficial to consumers
- Consumers are interested in the benefits associated with omega consumption
- The market potential of functional foods is still limited by shortcomings
in consumer awareness and understanding of functional ingredients
- Foods which are low in cholesterol are increasingly resonating with
consumers and this is reflected in the number of product launches yearly
- Omega oils have a ' healthy halo' which resonates with consumers
- An increasing focus on diabetes has resulted in more launches of products
which are low in sugar and gluten
- Concentrating on minimizing fatty content is undoubtedly still important
but the number of launches may have reached a plateau in light of the interest
in functional foods
- Foods and beverages which are fortified with fiber and/or contain whole
grains are growing in number because consumers clearly understand the benefits
associated with consumption
- Key takeouts and implications: industry players are increasingly turning
to products fortified with helpful nutrients rather than merely looking to
moderate and avoid unhealthy properties in foods and beverages
- ACTION POINTS
