Functional beverage wellness trends

Overview

Wellness trends are increasingly focusing on the health benefits of various functional beverages. Initial interest has centered on options like goguma latte, a caffeine-free sweet potato drink, and black coffee, which is noted for its antioxidant properties and potential support for heart, brain, and liver health.

This trend has expanded to include tea and fermented drinks such as kombucha. While tea is recognized for metabolic stimulation and cardiovascular support, the rise of kombucha has brought scrutiny to marketing claims. The Organización de Consumidores y Usuarios (OCU) has noted that while kombucha is often marketed for its probiotic and detoxifying properties, labeling a product as probiotic is descriptive and does not provide a “scientific guarantee of specific health miracles in humans.”
