Functional ingredients such as green tea extract, L-theanine, ashwagandha, magnesium, mushrooms and herbal extracts continue to drive innovation across food, health and beauty products. They can create valuable opportunities for product differentiation and consumer appeal, but they can also raise complex regulatory questions that affect product classification, marketing and compliance.

The rules governing the use and promotion of functional ingredients can vary significantly depending on whether a product is regulated as a food, therapeutic good or cosmetic. Understanding these distinctions is critical, as product formulation, ingredient selection, format and marketing claims can all influence regulatory obligations and business risk.

Using real-world examples, our interactive 90-minute workshop will help you understand how to harness the opportunities presented by functional ingredients while confidently navigating the regulatory landscape.

We will help you answer questions such as:

•  How are food, therapeutic goods and cosmetic products regulated in Australia?
•  What is the food-medicine interface and when does it become a concern?
•  What risks arise when using functional ingredients, and why does ingredient classification matter?
•  How can ingredient selection, product format and marketing influence product positioning?
•  What opportunities and limitations exist when marketing products containing functional ingredients?
•  How can you leverage functional ingredients to support innovation and differentiation while managing regulatory risk?

 Who should attend:

•      R&D
•      Marketing
•      QA
•      Legal
•      Regulatory

Whether you're developing new products, assessing ingredients, creating marketing campaigns, reviewing labels or managing compliance obligations, this workshop will provide practical guidance to help you make informed decisions about functional ingredients with greater confidence.

Numbers are limited to ensure an interactive experience.

Health and nutrition claims can be powerful tools for differentiating products, communicating value to consumers and strengthening brand credibility. As demand for products with nutritional, functional and health benefits continue to grow, understanding how to communicate these benefits accurately and compliantly is becoming increasingly important.

This practical, interactive workshop will give you the knowledge and tools to confidently promote the nutritional, health and functional benefits of your products while meeting Australian regulatory requirements. Learn how to leverage health marketing opportunities, support stronger product positioning and avoid common mistakes that can lead to compliance issues.

Using real-world examples and practical case studies, we'll explore how to navigate the regulatory framework and apply it to your own products and marketing activities.

•   Is my product eligible to make a health claim?
•   What conditions apply when making a nutrition content claim?
•   What additional nutrition labelling requirements are triggered by health marketing?
•   Which claims can be self-substantiated and what is the process?
•   Which claims are considered lower risk, and which require greater caution?
•   How can I communicate nutritional, health and functional benefits in a way that is both effective and compliant?

AND many more....
