Global Weight Management Market – Unraveling the opportunities

“Global Weight Management Market Report” aims to identify and analyze products and services that specifically induce weight loss and enable individuals to maintain weight. The global weight management market is estimated to reach US$586 billion in 2014 from about US$363 billion in 2009.

Device and accessories is the largest market under weight management, and is expected to be US$181 billion in size by 2014, owing to the role of brands targeting the youth, and growing adoption rate in the female population. However, the highest CAGR of 14.7% from 2009 to 2014 is expected to come from the services segment. Artificial sweeteners used in low calorie food and beverages such as hoodia gordonii, inulin etc are driving the CAGR of ingredients in low calorie F&B to about 11.2% from 2009 to 2014. Emergence of new artificial sweeteners that claim to preserve the traditional flavors are gaining in demand.

Weight management service market is lucrative as it exhibits the highest CAGR over the period of 2009 to 2014. There are not many food chains which specialize in serving health food. Diet chains service providers are now expanding this low tapped segment by providing better and healthy food.

The market is currently restrained due to a confused positioning. Number of weight loss methods available in the market are making it difficult for market players to drive brand recall among the consumers. Failed attempts to reduce weight by the consumers discourage them to go in for further weight loss trials. Hence it is very essential for market players to understand the target audience and their specific needs to provide them umbrella solutions.

The significantly high rate of new products in the weight management segment necessitates industry participants to adopt proactive strategies. Moreover, the larger chunk of the market is not only driven by significant products such as fitness devices and food market, there also exist added opportunities in the minor market such as for fitness accessories. This necessitates a further need to understand clearly the characteristics and demand for the micro-markets so as to obtain a holistic view of the industry. North America is the largest market for weight management. However, Europe is catching up with an expected CAGR of 10.2% during the period 2009 to 2014, owing to increased adoption of the services and products. Asian markets are expected to ensure long term growth due to increased health awareness.

The weight management market is highly fragmented and dominated by the unorganized sector. The key players in the weight management market are Abbott Nutrition, GSK, Roche, Atkins Nutritionals, Brunswick, Jenny Craig, Kellogg, Merck, McNeil Nutritionals, Nestle, Reebok and Unilever. Agreements and collaborations, and new product launches are very popular strategies to combat competition. Both these strategies are consequential as several of the market players are entering into agreements and collaborations in order to promote their new products and to extend their presence in new geographies with no or very less cost compared to acquisitions.

Tips for Summer Travelling

June 26th, 2009

As is known to all, summer is the peak season for travelling. But what should people pay attention to while traveling? Here are some tips for your reference.

Dress: first of all, people should dress comfortably while going out for a trip; for example, you had better not pull on the hardware leather shoes, especially the new shoes, so as to prevent hurting your foot and holding up the journey as a result. Thus, the loose, casual clothing is the best choice. Besides, when you go out, you must bring a sun hat or sunscreen umbrella with you, because the summer sun is very strong; the long-wave ultraviolet radiation is harmful to human skin; and the long-time exposure to sunlight would make you feel dizzy; what’s worse, severe cases would give rise to all kinds of dermatitis.

Meanwhile, sunglasses are also indispensable. It is used to prevent strong sunlight from stimulating the human eyes. Along with the improvement of people’s material and cultural levels, sunglasses can be embodied as a beauty or special personal style jewelry. Sunglasses, while travelling, can help to protect eyes from harmful UV radiation (contact lenses are worn to prevent water evaporation); at the same time, it plays a role as decoration. Wearing sunglasses makes one more charming and cool. GlassesShop.com is an online glasses company, which provides people with an abundance of fashion glasses. Whenever you have any needs, you can have a try at this shop. It will be found to your satisfaction.

Diet: generally speaking, while travelling outside, people usually consume much water, so you’d better eat more soup and light food, have more fresh vegetables, fruits, but eat as less as possible the fried and greasy food, so as to prevent indigestion. While some lean meat may be a more appropriate allocation. Especially when you climb mountains, take more water with you.

Accommodation: At the choice of hotels, those with free ventilation and light are among your best selection. Before going to bed, you had better swab down and bubble your foot, which can help to enhance blood cycle. It is also suggested that you should not open air-conditioning all night when sleeping, so as not to catch cold as a result.

While you go for a swimming at seaside in summer, first of all you should choose water. Some water is not clean, which not only seriously damages your skin, but also induces a number of diseases. When sun is strong, you must not have open-air swimming. The sunscreen products you use had better be waterproof.

Besides, to drink a cup of 0.5% concentration of salt water would be better after you sweat a lot, which can add the salt loss to the body and prevent heat stroke as a result. To carry with salt has another advantage: it can be used to wash the towel which has wiped much sweat. By doing so, the towel will be as clean as new and has a refreshing effect. In addition, at the end of the tour, by adding a small amount of salt in the bath water, you can have a more comfortable wash, which helps to enhance the spirit of heart and your skin will be smoother.

March 20th, 2008

Dieters who have previously been de-railed from their diets due to hunger and a lack of satiety (a feeling of completeness or satisfaction through eating) are ecstatic with the results from using “Weight Loss Formula Pi2”. “People don’t fail diets, diets fail people” states L&L Technologies CEO Lezlie Leier “Studies show that the main reasons people go off a diet is they feel hungry and deprived of something or that the diet regimen is simply too complex or time consuming to sustain for long periods of time” Weight Loss Formula Pi2 totally reverses that trend and makes dieting easier with it’s all natural active ingredient of a Proteinase Inhibitor II and supporting ingredients of white tea and elemental Calcium.

Over 11 clinical studies site the effectiveness of proteinase inhibitor II in assisting with significant weight reduction and reduction in hip, thigh and buttock measurements in the groups studied.

A video of the process can be viewed at www.formulapi2.com Studies have also shown that blood glucose levels remain more static and stable for longer periods of time with the use of Proteinase Inhibitors such as those found in Weight Loss formula Pi2.

Weight Loss Formula Pi2 does not trick or stimulate a person’s metabolism, those who have used the product report a general “good feeling” but not jitters or hyper stimulation associated with many diet aids today. The easy delivery system is another contributor to success, since Formula Pi2 is not a pill, but rather a soft chew that is delicious, fun to eat and effective at battling hunger. Weight Loss Formula Pi2 is designed as a tool that works well with any food program or diet and exercise program one may be following. It combats the enemy all people trying to change their lifestyles face, hunger.
