14 May 2019 --- Functional foods innovators must look beyond the complexities of achieving health claims by communicating directly to early adopters. Furthermore, platforms such as personalized nutrition will accelerate and solutions to reduce stress and enhance sleep quality hold vast potential for growth. This is according to Albert McQuaid, Global Chief Technology Officer at Kerry Taste & Nutrition.

01 Apr 2019 --- Personalized nutrition is a broad term, which could encompass considering from on one side personalizing to someone’s gender, age or health condition, or you could go right to the other end of the spectrum where you can personalize based on genetics or gut microbiome. For Aoife Marie Murphy of Kerry, it is open to the consumer and what they really feel like. "We know that millennials are very interested in technology and are very interested in these customized solutions and want to have products that are unique to them. They want to have products that are targeted to themselves, so this area of personalized nutrition does feed into this need for inherently healthy products," she notes.

18 Mar 2019 --- Technological advances, including wearable nutrition tracking devices and microbiota mapping tools, present new potential to address an aware consumer, who is interested in tailored nutrition concepts that specifically work for them. “Technology has made people aware of their own behavior for the first time, as people are wearing these devices and using them,” Dr. Lisa Ryan, Head of the Department of Natural Sciences at Galway-Mayo (GMIT) in Ireland, tells NutritionInsight. “One of the targets of public health in the past was to make people more aware of what they were doing. It is now about harnessing that awareness and driving it into further good. People are really engaging with their health and wanting to try to do something to address it. Our challenge is to be able to allow them to do so.”

13 Dec 2018 --- At HiE 2018, NutrititionInsight spoke with Laura E. Collins of Kerry about the expanding market potential of the company's Wellmune ingredients. Wellmune’s immune health halo was recently expanded with a study highlighting its potential for marathon runners. The study found that consuming beverages fortified with the yeast beta-glucan ingredient can reduce the severity and impact of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) symptoms associated with intense exercise stress.
