Product innovation has emerged as a leading trend in the liquid nutritional supplement market, with key market players focusing on the development of novel products to fortify their market stance. For instance, Arla Foods Ingredients, a firm based in Denmark that supplies ingredients for infant nutrition, medial applications, and sports nutrition, launched juice-style oral nutrition supplements (ONS) in May 2023. The goal was to enhance the protein content in medical nutrition. The ONS juice-style beverages from Arla Foods Ingredients are distinctive nutritional drinks offering 7% additional protein without compromising the taste or texture. Lacprodan BLG-100, a complete beta-lactoglobulin product, boasts of an impressive nutritional profile. The new product is devoid of fat and the inclusion of BLG-100 ensures an extremely low viscosity and a stable product throughout its shelf life. Additionally, it is less sharp to taste compared to conventional ONS juice-style products and has an improved texture, thus promoting adherence to medical nutrition.
