Wellness products range from supplements and meditation tools, catering to various wellness needs. From increasing immunity to relieving bloat, these items can help improve both overall health and mental clarity.
Wellness products designed to promote relaxation and reduce stress are in high demand among consumers. One such product, such as the Bonvie Acupressure Mat and Pillow Bundle, activates the parasympathetic nervous system for deep restful restful relaxation.
CROs
Wellness products have become increasingly popular, but creating them requires extensive research and clinical trials. CROs that specialize in wellness product development can assist with streamlining this process while improving results while adhering to regulations.
When choosing a CRO, look for one with an impressive track record in successful collaborations and research studies, along with top-of-the-line facilities and qualified personnel.
A reliable CRO will offer an array of services, such as formulation development and stability testing. In addition, they may conduct bioavailability studies and manage clinical trials while making sure all data collected and analyzed efficiently.
Direct-to-consumer (D2C) health and wellness brands
D2C models enable these companies to offer products at lower costs, making them competitive with traditional wellness retailers and building customer loyalty through premium membership programs.
D2C health and wellness brands are on an upward trend, with several of the more notable ones emphasizing personalization. One such brand specializes in customized vitamins and supplements while another provides home gym equipment specifically aimed at fitness enthusiasts.
Nua is a women-centric brand offering menstrual relief and intimate care products to women during their period. Their discreet heat patches reduce pain and discomfort while making women feel more confident during their period. Bodyotics utilizes medical grade silicone menstrual discs as well as Kegel exercisers to support pelvic health.
Market trends
Numerator reports that the digestive health trend has seen sales surge for wellness products like probiotics and performance shakes, with growth not heavily dependent upon price dynamics and mix shifts.
Personalized messaging and marketing strategies are key for taping into consumers’ self-care mindset, helping brands differentiate their offerings while building customer loyalty.
Wellness brands can enhance their clinical credibility by emphasizing transparent ingredient sourcing and third-party testing of product formulations, and by creating a medical advisory board to offer recommendations.
Formulation development
Wellness products are an emerging industry, reflecting global attention on health and self-care. Businesses specializing in wellness products prioritize sustainability, natural ingredients and rigorous testing processes in order to satisfy consumer demand.
Formulation development is a crucial element of product development. This step includes pre-formulation studies and selection of lead candidate formulations for preclinical animal trials. Lindus Health offers various formulation development services to ensure that their final products meet all required success factors, including stability, compatibility, and microbiological tests.
Stability testing
Stability testing is an integral component of product development that ensures formulas retain their intended physical, chemical, and microbiological properties over time. Stability tests identify degradation pathways while setting shelf life/storage conditions that ensure consumers receive safe products with excellent quality and safety characteristics.
Stabilization chambers should be regularly monitored using data loggers to record temperature and humidity levels, in order to detect deviations from their expected patterns and warn teams of potential issues.
Manufacturers must conduct long-term stability tests on three initial production batches of any drug product and annually thereafter on samples taken from each annual batch containing that dosage form. Where there is sufficient scientific technical justification, less stringent requirements may be acceptable.
Bioavailability studies
Bioavailability is an integral element of drug effectiveness, measuring how quickly and completely it enters systemic circulation. It can be affected by numerous factors including formulation and form.
Format can have an important influence on absorption; some oral sprays and liquid droplets, for instance, may provide higher bioavailability than capsules and tablets.
Lindus Health offers CROs that specialize in wellness products such as Lindus Health can assist in creating safe and effective wellness products through preclinical and clinical studies that include formulation development and stability testing, bioavailability studies and clinical trial management services.
Clinical trial management
Clinical trials are an integral component of innovation such as diets, medical devices and medications, providing rigorous testing procedures that measure safety, effectiveness and any possible side effects of innovative technologies or therapies. Effective clinical trial management (CTMS) helps streamline this complex process and meet study objectives more easily. CTMS helps manage suppliers, collaborate with stakeholders, accelerate trial timelines and enhance data quality – as well as ensure regulatory compliance – all while streamlining data collection processes, optimizing data quality and streamlining data quality analysis. In addition, CTMS centralizes information, simplifies interactions and maximizes resource allocation across suppliers.
