Science, market forces, challenges and opportunities in the spotlight in Anti-Aging forum

Related tags Nutrition

Experts from Nutrilite/Amway, Atrium Innovations, Unistraw, and CosmeticsDesign will discuss the challenges and opportunities in the beauty-from-within category in a FREE forum hosted by NutraIngredients-USA.

Euromonitor International estimated the value of beauty supplements to be $2.9 billion in 2015, with the US market valued at $76 million.

The category is dominated by products formulated with collagen, antioxidants, biotin, omega-3s, and some botanical extracts, but how substantial is the science to support the potential effects? How do brands manage consumer expectations when seeing is believing? And what lessons can we learn from more established beauty-from-within markets like Japan?

In this one hour forum, NutraIngredients-USA will get answers to these questions and more.

The NutraIngredients-USA Anti-Aging forum will be held on Thursday, July 28 at 11 AM Eastern time and includes the following expert panelists:
