Healthy Eating Trends - Brazil - 2022
Overview
 
What you need to know 
Consumers consider fresh and lightly processed ingredients, the balance between healthy and indulgent options and moderate consumption of certain ingredients (eg caffeine and alcohol) to be important for healthy eating. However, consumers are not always able to keep these habits. The main barriers to doing so are lack of disposable income to buy healthy foods, and the temptation to select less healthy options when dining out or attending social gatherings.

In the search for an ideal diet, weight control remains highly relevant. Nevertheless, there is a growing perception that being thin does not necessarily mean being healthy. Therefore, marketers have a chance to invest in options that support mental and emotional health, healthy aging, and the prevention of diseases with a focus on heart, muscle and brain health.
