Consumers taking different GLP-1 therapies are thinking about food and their nutritional intake in an entirely new way. With appetite suppression, the demand for nutrient-dense, functional products is accelerating. For product developers, this shift presents a unique opportunity to rethink how nutrition is delivered, and how every bite or sip can be made more purposeful.
Our approach to GLP-1 nutrition is built around this evolving consumer behavior. By focusing on science-backed ingredients and delivery formats, we help brands create products that meet the needs of today’s health-conscious, GLP-1-aware consumers.
Understanding the GLP-1 Consumer Mindset
GLP-1 users are not just eating less, they’re eating differently. Smaller portions, fewer meals, and a heightened focus on nutritional value are defining the new normal. This shift is driving interest in products that offer more functionality per serving, whether through added protein, digestive support, or clean-label ingredients.
Consumers navigating GLP-1 therapy are actively seeking foods and supplements that help them feel full, maintain energy, and support their overall wellness goals. They are also looking for convenience, portability, and formats that fit into their changing routines.
Formulating for Nutrient Density and Digestive Comfort
To meet these expectations, product developers must prioritize ingredients that deliver meaningful benefits in compact formats. Some formats include:
- Prebiotics and Excipients that support digestive health and microbiome balance
- Chelated minerals that offer enhanced absorption and formulation flexibility
- Proteins
These ingredients are available in versatile formats through our branded solutions. Each is designed to perform across a range of applications, from snacks and beverages to supplements and stick packs.
Choosing the Right Format for Smaller Appetites
With reduced meal frequency and portion sizes, delivery format matters more than ever. Products must be easy to consume, convenient to carry, and aligned with the GLP-1 lifestyle.
Popular formats include:
- Stick packs for quick, on-the-go supplementation
- Ready-to-drink beverages that combine hydration with functional benefits
- Snack bars and bites that deliver protein, fiber, and slow-digesting carbs
- Capsules and softgels for targeted nutrient delivery
Our ingredient technologies are optimized for these formats, helping brands meet consumer expectations for taste, texture, and efficacy.
