Abstract
Introduction
The most developed bone and joint health market by far is the US; the total
market value in the US exceeded $3 billion in 2008, and is expected to
approach $4 billion by 2013. Bone and joint health nutraceuticals is also a
billion dollar industry in China and Japan.
Scope of this research
- Detailed insights and analysis documenting the drivers and inhibitors of
bone and joint health enhancing food and beverages
- Analysis documenting the relative importance consumers place on bone and
joint health and how this varies by socio-demographics
- Strategic conclusions combined with actionable recommendations for all
industry players looking to develop relevant product propositions
- 17 countries covered across Western Europe, South America, North America
and the Asia Pacific
Research and analysis highlights
Many 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' . Awareness of calcium' s role in promoting bone
health is particularly high, yet many consumers fail to meet recommended
intakes
Over 60% of US respondents considered the "addition of nutrients and other
substances not usually found in that food and beverage, e.g. calcium" to be
either ' very' or ' somewhat appealing' a sentiment only neared in Europe by
Italy (55%). Japanese consumers were among the least attracted
An aging society is a key driver of the intensifying focus (at least in the
health and nutrition community) on bone and joint health as ailments are most
prevalent among older individuals. As consumers get older, they are
increasingly forced to seek solutions to minimize the discomfort caused by
problems such as osteoporosis and arthritis
Key reasons to purchase this research
- Consumer understanding: obtain a detailed understanding of consumer
attitudes and behaviors towards bone and joint health enhancing products
- Market understanding: identify the key bone and joint health growth
markets and product innovation trends in 17 countries across four territories
- Ideation: find inspiration for innovative formulations and product
positioning which takes advantage of consumers' evolving dietary preferences

OVERVIEW
THE FUTURE DECODED
- INTRODUCTION: Bone and joint health issues are becoming more relevant to
the broader pursuit of health and wellbeing
- There are a number of important characteristics associated with bone
health
- Bone health problems are a huge cost to society, and are more prevalent
than many consumers think
- The three main manifestations of bone and joint health problems are
arthritis, osteoporosis and rickets/osteomalacia
TREND: Intensifying health concerns are driving interest in more sophisticated forms of nutrition such as bone and joint health products
- Considerable importance is being placed upon diet and nutrition in the
pursuit of wellbeing
- Many consumers are highly attentive about making healthy dietary choices
which bodes well for products promoting specific health benefits
- Consumers continue to make concerted efforts to improve their dietary
health
- The growing interest in food labeling highlights the importance of diet
and nutrition to consumers and that shoppers are looking for nutritional
information that is personally important to them
- Consumers are increasingly aware that some foods or beverages can provide
specific health benefits such as improved bone and joint health
- Consumers are turning to functional foods as a preventative measure
against declining health
- Healthy eating behaviors are shifting from principles associated with
' avoidance' to ' inclusion'
- Key takeouts and implications: the deepening link between diet and
wellness is important for the ongoing popularization of products promoting
bone and joint health benefits
TREND: The number of consumers experiencing bone and joint health problems is growing as the global population ages
- Seniors account for a large proportion of European society and slightly
less in the US
- Growth in Seniors population in Asia Pacific and other emerging markets is
commercially appealing
- An aging population is resulting in an increase of bone and joint health
problems
- Females, especially post-menopausal women, suffer from bone health
problems more than males while ethnicity also influences an individuals' risk
status
- Children and teenagers are also vulnerable groups when it comes to bone &
joint health both in the short-and long-term
- Arthritis is the primary joint health problem and prevalence rates are
escalating across the globe
- Osteoporosis is less common than Arthritis, but the prevalence is growing
- Sufferers of osteoporosis do not consider themselves to be fragile
- Muscle, joint and bone problems account for a large percentage of
long-term ailments worldwide
- Key takeouts and implications: the degenerative nature of bone and joint
health problems means that they will affect Seniors far more than any other
age group
INSIGHT: The global obesity epidemic and sedentary lifestyles are among a number of social and lifestyle issues contributing to bone and joint health ailments
- Global obesity levels are worsening in most countries across the globe
- Studies show that obesity and bone joint health problems are closely
linked to obesity
- Higher calcium intake has been linked with weight benefits
- Sedentary lifestyles also negatively impact bone and joint health while
the nature of the physical activity is also important in developing stronger
bones
- There is a crossover between bone and digestive health
- Key takeouts and implications: a number of issues can lead to a higher
risk for developing weak bones while bone and joint health problems overlap
with a number of other health and wellness themes
INSIGHT: Consumers have mixed feelings about the manipulation of food and beverage products and are also overly optimistic about their health status
- New food production techniques and technologies are often met with
ambivalence and fear
- The negativity towards nutrient-based functional manipulation is less
pronounced than it is towards GM foods
- Just because consumers recognize the broad range of benefits associated
with certain food doesn' t necessarily mean that they think they need them
- Key takeouts and implications: while an increasing proportion of
' nutritionally proactive' consumers are demanding more specific functionality
from their products, consumption barriers still exist
INSIGHT: Many consumers tend to be relatively complacent about bone and joint health despite being highly aware of supporting foods and nutrients
- Consumers do not give bone health the same attention as more high profile
considerations such as heart health and mental wellbeing
- Low awareness and/or complacency, as well as a shorter-term focus on
health, partly explains the lower attention that consumers place on bone health
- Older consumers are more attentive towards protecting bone health although
some unaware of the problem of osteoporosis and unable to change dietary habits
- Consumers are aware of the importance of bone and joint health problems
but some falsely believe that they are untreatable
- Key takeouts and implications: complacency, short-termism,
misunderstanding are all problematic themes associated with maximizing
potential revenues from bone and joint benefitting products
INSIGHT: There are sensory driven formulation challenges associated with functional bone and joint health promoting food and beverages
- Although consumers are making active attempts to eat healthier, they are
generally not willing to do so by compromising sensory benefits
- Key takeouts and implications: despite consumers making active attempts to
eat healthier, they will generally not compromise sensory benefits for
nutrition benefits
INSIGHT: Consuming the correct amount and type of vitamins and mineral is pivotal to improving bone and joint health and this is directs innovation trends in the market segment
- Calcium and vitamin D are generally regarded as the mainstays of healthy
bones
- Vitamin B can impact bone mineral densities
- Omega 3 has been proven to aid consumers with rheumatoid arthritis, but
not osteoarthritis
- Vitamin K can play a big role in improving bone health
- Vitamin C is more often associated with immune health, but can also be
beneficial for bones
- Key minerals such as magnesium and phosphorous work synergistically with
calcium and vitamin D to increase bone mineral content
- Glucosamine can be used in conjunction with other nutrients to aid both
bone and joint health
- Collagen hydrolsate and silicon may be the next big ingredient in
improving joint health
- Eating soy foods has been known to reduce fracture rate
- Probiotic and prebiotic and prebiotic formulations have the potential to
branch out into new areas including bone health
- Fruit and vegetables high in alkaline content may boost bone health
- Alcohol consumption can potentially help and hinder bone health depending
on quantity and type of alcohol consumed
- A healthy bone diet also includes avoidance or moderation of certain
dietary factors while diet alone cannot definitely safeguard a person from
osteoporosis
- Key takeouts and implications: though calcium is arguably the most
effective nutrient for building and maintaining bone density, there are others
that may help improve bone strength too
CONCLUSION: The growth rate of bone/joint health products is expected to slow, but remain at healthy levels
- The emergent consumer trend of embracing nutraceuticals meant that growth
in the market value of bone and joint health products was particularly high
between 2003 and 2008
- Growth in the dairy food sector is particularly strong in the four BRIC
countries
- Key takeouts and implications: the potential for growth in the market
exists, but manufacturers must be able to turn popular dairy products into
nutraceuticals to maximize appeal
ACTION POINTS
ACTION POINT: Combine health claims together because single benefits are no longer sufficient enough for consumers
- Create products which are not restricted to just bone/joint health problems
ACTION POINT: Target Seniors and females with bone and joint health products
- Offer Seniors calcium-based products which have traditional flavors and
are easy to prepare
- Embrace the trend of creating products which embrace femininity
ACTION POINT: Help ensure that young consumers understand the benefits of calcium consumption from an early age
