经济低迷的2010年美国草药补充剂市场销售上升了3% 去年，在美国，草药营养补充剂的销售市场上升了百分之三，美国植物药理事会(ABC) 的最新一期的«HerbalGram»季刊报道己超过了52亿美元($ 5.2bn)，在全球经济衰退最为严重的2010年，草药补充剂的销售量却比2009年增长4.8%。在天然健康食品领域，草药补充剂中最热门的五个品种是：亚麻籽和/或亚麻籽油类(Linum usitatissimum)；麦草绿素类 (wheat or barley; Triticum aestivum or Hordeum vulgare, respectively)；芦荟类(Aloe vera)；姜黄素类(Curcuma longa)；甜菊苷类(Stevia rebaudiana)。在食品、药品和大宗消费品市场方面，表现最好的草药补充剂分别是：蔓越莓(Vaccinium macrocarpon)；锯叶棕(Serenoa repens)；大豆(Glycine max)；蒜(Allium sativum)；银杏(Ginkgo biloba)。 US herbal supplement sales up 3% last year By Mike Stones, 23-May-2011 Related topics: Industry, Phytochemicals, plant extracts Sales of herbal dietary supplements in the United States climbed three per cent last year to reach more than $5.2bn, according to a report published in the latest issue of HerbalGram, the quarterly journal of the American Botanical Council. Sales of herbal dietary supplements in the United States climbed three per cent last year to reach more than $5.2bn, according to a report published in the latest issue of HerbalGram, the quarterly journal of the American Botanical Council. Sales in the mainstream market channel, including drugstores and grocery stores, rose 6.6 per cent last year to reach an estimated $936m. Sales in the natural and health foods channel grew by about 2 per cent in 2010 to $1.663bn. The five top-selling single herbal supplements in the natural and health foods channel last year were: · Flaxseed and/or oil (Linum usitatissimum) · Grass (wheat or barley; Triticum aestivum or Hordeum vulgare, respectively) · Aloe (Aloe vera) · Turmeric (Curcuma longa) · Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana). The best performing single herbal supplements were identified by market research organization SPINS. The top-selling herbal singles in the food, drug, and mass-market channel, according to IRI, were: · Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) · Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) · Soy (Glycine max) · Garlic (Allium sativum) · Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba). HerbalGram’s Mark Blumenthal said: "Despite the general economic turndown, consumers continue to demonstrate their interest in and demand for natural ways to improve their health. "These 2010 sales increase for herbal supplements tracks with strong demand in 2009, where the sales increased 4.8% over the previous year, even during the depths of the recession." Last year’s rise in sales followed growth seen in nine of the past 11 years. The biggest change in herb sales between 2010 and 2009 reflected diminishing concern about a H1N1 flu virus. “Thus the spikes in sales in herbs that are perceived to be useful to prevent or treat symptoms of any type of flu based on traditional use and/or modern research did not occur,” according to the report. “The sharp increases in 2009 sales for echinacea and elderberry supplements, for example did not continue in 2010. These two herbs experienced a predictable drop in sales as they reset to levels that would be consistent prior to H1N1 concerns.” Direct sales outlets Besides the mainstream market and the natural and health foods channel, herbal dietary supplements are sold in the United States through mail order catalogs and internet sites, radio and television direct sales outlets, multi-level marketing firms that sell directly to the consumer, health professionals who sell supplements from their offices, and other channels. The report was based on herb supplement sales statistics from market research organizations Nutrition Business Journal (NBJ), SPINS, and SymphonyIRI. Herb supplement sales for last year were based on information from company surveys, interviews with major retailers and industry experts, and published and unpublished secondary material.

《新闻周刊》猛烈抨击抗氧化剂点击[1129] 0 评论分享发布： 2011-04-27
《新闻周刊》猛烈抨击抗氧化剂 1月25日的《新闻周刊》发表了一篇题为“从优雅中堕落：流行的抗氧化剂饮食成分可能没有什么好处，而且实际上可能会有害” 的文章。这篇文章用一个大大的整合分析显示：他们可能增加你的死亡风险。抗氧化剂的世界一直在推进，并多次重复着没有任何人受益的老路：没有消费者,也没有工业。对于那些在这一前沿领域的抗氧化研究，现在是科学怎么去表演的时候了。在新闻周刊的文章中，Sharon Begley女士声称：第一个暗示是这场[抗氧化剂]浪潮正被来自数以百计的试图评估对人类健康的影响的抗氧化剂研究所摧毁。Sharon Begley女士对67项研究结果进行了的整合分析，得出维生素A和维生素E会增加死亡风险和β-胡萝卜素的死亡率增加了16%，该统计分析结果作为一种循证医学科研系统综述首先发表在《美国医学会杂志》(2007, Vol. 297, p. 842-857) 上。Sharon Begley女士也补充说：目前尚不清楚为什么抗氧化剂补充剂可能会很危险。 Newsweek slams antioxidants: Yawn! By Stephen Daniells 31-Jan-2011 Related topics: Industry, Antioxidants, carotenoids, Minerals, Vitamins & premixes Monday mornings are never easy. As I read yet another article slamming antioxidants the desire to yawn was stronger than normal. On January 25, Newsweek published an article entitled “Antioxidants Fall From Grace: The popular dietary components may not do any good, and may actually harm”. The article treads the same old path of antioxidant supplements do not work, and one big meta-analysis indicated they may increase your risk of mortality’. One word: Yawn. The world of antioxidants is moving onwards, and repeating the same old line is not benefiting anyone: Not consumers, nor industry. For those at the cutting edge of antioxidant research, now is the time to show where the science is going. Antioxidants = that meta-analysis In the Newsweek article, Sharon Begley states: “The first hints that the [antioxidant] bandwagon was crashing came from the hundreds of studies that have tried to assess the health effects of antioxidant supplements. The results have not been pretty.” Ms Begley then goes on with reciting the results of the meta-analysis with 67 studies that concluded that vitamins A and E, and beta-carotene may increase mortality risk by up to 16 percent. The meta-analysis first appeared in J AMA (2007, Vol. 297, pp. 842-857), and then enjoyed an encore as a Cochrane Systematic Review. “It’s not clear why antioxidants in supplement form might be so dangerous,” adds Begley. No! It is not clear that antioxidant supplements are in any way ‘dangerous’: What is clear, however, is that there is no mention of the 748 trials that were excluded from the meta-analysis that the Newsweek article hinges on, including 405 trials that showed no mortality in the study groups. After all, you can't measure antioxidants in relation to death if you have no deaths to compare it to. There is also no mention of the recent revisit of this data by scientists led by Prof Hans Biesalski from the University of Hohenheim, which found that 36 percent of the trials showed a positive outcome or that the antioxidant supplements were beneficial, 60 percent had a null outcome, while only four percent found negative outcome (Nutrients, 2010, 2(9), 929-949). Balance is the key Extra antioxidants from the diet or supplements help redress the scales often tipped in favor of the pro-oxidants by factors such as aging, exposure to pollution, smoking, and excessive exercise: Pro-oxidants do perform important functions, including being involved in cell signaling and immune responses, but it’s about balance between these species and antioxidants. (For an update on thinking of antioxidants and reactive oxygen species, I’d point you in the direction of a new opinion paper by Prof. Barry Halliwell from the National University of Singapore – a leading voice in antioxidant research. Writing in Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, Prof Halliwell notes: “The biology of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants is not an esoteric field of study: these species are involved in all aspects of aerobic life. One cannot live without them, nor would one wish to, but ultimately they no doubt contribute to individual mortality. Learning how to stop the latter while preserving the useful functions of ‘reactive species’ should be a major research priority.”) Ms Begley does discuss the pro-oxidant issue, but to cite these reasons, one (controversial) meta-analysis, and four animal studies is not doing the subject of antioxidants any justice whatsoever. Such comments have been echoed by academia and industry: Tufts University’s Prof Jeff Blumberg told NutraIngredients-USA.com: "Regrettably, this piece does not provide a balanced viewpoint of the state-of-the-science of dietary antioxidants and attempts to frighten readers with brief descriptions of a few in vitro experiments, studies in mice and rats, and reliance on controversial meta-analyses." And this echoed comments from Douglas MacKay, N.D, Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), who added: “The article provided an incomplete picture of the existing scientific evidence supporting the benefits of antioxidants, instead relying exclusively on findings from only negative or null studies, and meta-analyses that many scientists have already criticized.” The next phase In addition to being incomplete, the article also contains nothing that is ‘news’. Instead, the real news on antioxidants is far more interesting: Academics such as Prof Blumberg have called for a move beyond the term ‘antioxidant’ . “Stopping use of the term ‘antioxidant’ provides a terrific opportunity to differentiate yourself and promote the multifunctional benefits of these compounds we now call antioxidants,” said Prof Blumberg in an interview with NutraIngredients in 2010. “Can we tell that story without using the term ’antioxidant’?” Industry, too From an industry perspective, the term ‘antioxidant’ is an established member of the marketer’s little black book of favorite terms, and this is not surprising when we consider the global supplements market in 2009 for antioxidant vitamin C was $3.4bn (€2.49bn), coenzyme Q10 was $897m (€657m), and vitamin E was $1.39bn (€1.02bn), according to Euromonitor. But relying on the term to guarantee future sales is short-sighted. Indeed, various sections of the industry acknowledge the need to move beyond our current thinking. Last year, Dr Michele Kellerhals, research and innovation, functional ingredients director at Coca-Cola Europe told the Fresenius Functional Food conference last year Coca-Cola said he expects antioxidants to be replaced with polyphenols. Such pro-active thinking is what we need in terms of antioxidants. It is clear that consuming these nutrients is beneficial but thinking of them only as antioxidants is getting old. Now that would wake us up and get us thinking. Stephen Daniells is the senior editor for NutraIngredients-USA.com and FoodNavigator-USA.com. He has a PhD in chemistry from Queen's University Belfast and has worked in research in the Netherlands and France. He has been writing about nutrition and food science for over five years, and has commented on the subject of antioxidants previously: “Time for Antioxidants v2.0 ” and “The quest for a radical new world for antioxidants ”.
