This NutraIngredients roundup covers four industry items. California enacted AB 2030, adding age restrictions on supplements marketed for weight loss or muscle building, prompting criticism from CRN and the Natural Products Association over regulatory ambiguity. A new precision fermentation facility, the Biotech Open Platform, opened in Clermont-Ferrand, France, backed by Danone, Michelin, DMC Biotechnologies and others, with over €20 million invested to help startups scale ingredient production. The piece also reports that PDRN, traditionally derived from animal DNA and used in injectable aesthetics, is moving into oral beauty supplements in South Korea, with Amorepacific among companies launching PDRN-containing products. Separately, the Sports & Active Nutrition Summit USA will move from San Diego to Dallas for its 2027 edition, broadening its focus to metabolic health and weight management.
“I believe PDRN has strong growth potential in the beauty supplement category”
Our view
It's encouraging to see PDRN discussed as a potential next-generation ingredient for beauty-from-within supplements, alongside established actives like collagen. Growing consumer awareness through professional skincare treatments appears to be building momentum for the category more broadly, which speaks well of the ingredient's expanding recognition among formulators and consumers alike.
