21 Feb 2020 --- The popularity of drinks with functional benefits looks set to increase at a rapid pace in 2020. That is according to John Quilter, VP and General Manager for Kerry, who tells NutritionInsight that rather than looking for catch-all products with vague benefits, “consumers increasingly want functional beverages that offer targeted nutrition.” In particular, there are high levels of interest in beverages that deliver immune health support, he affirms. Digestive health and immunity are staple nutrition trends that Quilter says will grow further in 2020.
