On the other hand, consumers have an increasingly advanced vision of health that leads to an increasing demand.

There are many types of supplements on the market, diversified according to needs. The main substances listed include milk enzymes, mineral salts, vitamins, fatty acids, proteins, plant extracts and fibres. In Italy the adult population uses at least one supplement routinely, considering it a safe and effective product.

The nutraceutical trend shows a constant and solid growth in rapid evolution especially in terms of consumption. Particular attention is also paid to compliance with the new regulations to guarantee the protection of the consumer who buys products notified to the Ministry of Health and produced according to good manufacturing practices.

The Italian industry formulates, produces and distributes quality products that are functional to maintaining the state of health, in order to meet increasing needs, maintaining a position of European leadership in the supplement market.

In addition to these aspects, it is essential to implement the correct strategies for the positioning of these products, paying close attention to the communication according to the law.
