Korean dietary supplements and vitamins

Koreans place great importance on their health. This may be due to the fact that medicine in Korea is quite expensive. Although, of course, state insurance provides significant assistance. But, nevertheless, Koreans still try not to get sick. Therefore, Korean dietary supplements and vitamins are gaining popularity.

Korean dietary supplements and vitamins

Recently, various dietary supplements, vitamins, healthy foods, and so on have become popular in Korea. This trend has been around since the pandemic. And many companies use this in marketing their products and services.

Today I will share with you the most trendy health products in Korea.

Dietary supplements and vitamins have not bypassed the beauty industry. Recently, the term 'inner beauty' or inner beauty has appeared in Korea, which speaks of the influence of the health of the body on appearance. Therefore, a wide variety of Korean dietary supplements and vitamins aimed at appearance have appeared on the market, i.e. for healthy skin.

Sticks

The leading positions are occupied by the so-called “sticks” (from the English word 'stick'). These are products in a sachet. Today, sticks are divided into 3 main types: powder, liquid sticks and jelly sticks.

Besides the fact that the sticks are delicious, they are also convenient. They are convenient to carry with you in your bag, and convenient to eat, since, unlike many vitamins, you do not need to take them with water.

Collagen sticks have become especially popular. Collagen is one of the most important substances in our body. And as we age, our body produces less and less collagen.

Vitamins

Taking different vitamins is practically a way of life in Korea. In principle, vitamins are taken all over the world, so I will only mention those that are especially popular in Korea.

Probably, vitamin C can be considered number 1 in Korea. Vitamin C is usually sold in tablet form but is also available as a popular drink. You've probably seen him in a Korean TV series.

In addition to vitamin C, Koreans take multivitamins. And recently, multi-minerals are become popular.

As in many countries around the world, Omega 3 is also popular in Korea. Omega-3 strengthens the immune system, has an anti-inflammatory effect, and also prevents the appearance of harmful bacteria and substances.

Many Koreans have vision problems. And almost every second Koreans wear either glasses or contact lenses. And vitamins for eye health also occupy a significant part of the market.

After the pandemic, the demand for liver vitamins has increased. This is due to the fact that coronavirus negatively affects liver health.

Kombucha

Kombucha or kombucha has become one of the most trending drinks in Korea. Historically, fermentation and fermentable foods have played a large role in Korea. Many even associate Korea with fermented cabbage - kimchi.

Again, the benefits of fermented foods have become more talked about during the pandemic. Many scientific articles have appeared on this topic. And since this is related to health, the Koreans could not ignore it.

But, I’ll immediately note that kombucha in Korea is not sold in the form in which we are accustomed to seeing it. When many people mention kombucha, they see a picture of a jar with a brown liquid and something slippery inside it.

In Korea, kombucha is usually sold in the form of a powder that needs to be filled with water. And kombucha comes in a variety of flavours: lemon, berry, hibiscus, etc.

Conclusion

The main idea of ​​Korean dietary supplements and vitamins is that they are not only healthy but also tasty and easy to use. In addition, they closely intersect with the beauty industry.
