NutraIngredients.com - a sister site to BeverageDaily.com - sets out to answer the question in a three-day summit held from from June 23 to 25 in Vienna, Austria.
The Active Nutrition Summit is back as a face-to-face event this year, bringing researchers and industry together for a comprehensive look at the evolving active nutrition landscape.
It is set to deliver an in-depth program of sessions and panel discussions, along with ample opportunities for networking and engagement through live Q&As, roundtable lunches, speed networking sessions, a morning 5K run/walk and a highly-anticipated social evening.
On the agenda
The summit offers a ‘one-stop shop’ for the latest insights in the world of active nutrition.
The event will kick off by analyzing how active nutrition has expanded from niche sports category to mainstream wellness movement, driving product innovation and investment strategies.
The conference will then delve into other trending topics: such as the redefinition of weight management by exploring inclusive approaches, new science-backed solutions and the impact of GLP-1 drugs.
Researchers will also discuss the growing interest in mind health, highlighting adaptogens for cognitive support, gut-brain axis solutions and sleep-enhancing supplements.
Also on the agenda: nutrition strategies for maintaining active lifestyles for “ageless consumers”—from youth athletes to older adults, how tech is transforming personalized nutrition and performance optimization, and strategies for delivering on the unique nutritional needs of female athletes across life stage and hormonal cycle.
To round out the program, attendees will hear about cutting-edge innovations from start-ups and industry pioneers, clear and clever communication from marketing specialists, and the latest legal updates from regulatory experts.
