Sales Up

(NaturalNews) Sales of alternative medical products are on the rise in spite of -- and perhaps in part because of -- tough economic times.

According to a study reported in The Daily Mail, the British alternative medicines market has grown by 18 percent in the past two years, to a yearly value of £213 million ($333 million). This value is expected to rise to £282million, or another 33 percent, in the next four years. This increase has been seen across the board, even in less well-known treatments such as traditional Indian ayurvedic medicine.

In the United States, retail sales of vitamins and supplements totaled almost $639 million between October and December 2009, a nearly 10 percent increase from the same period in 2007. Sales of herbal supplements have increased 6 percent. The true scale might even be higher, as the figures do not include sales from Wal-Mart or club stores, where people are more likely to turn when there budgets become more restricted.

This increase is particularly striking given the overall downward trajectory of spending in that same time period.

Booming Market

Functional foods market worth $27bn +

The US functional foods market will grow by up to 20 percent

or five times that of the food industry as a whole, according

to a new report from Pricewaterhouse Coopers that puts the

market at $27bn in 2007.

Forecasts range from between 8.5 percent and 20 percent,

the finance firm said, compared to one and four percent for

the entire food industry.

Functional foods have grown to the point where they account

for five percent of the food industry, with consumers more

interested than ever in fortified foods – even those whose overall

nutrient profile is variable.

The Pricewaterhouse Coopers report noted consumers were

willing to pay premiums for foods that targeted health problems

or provided an alternative to the likes of soda drinks and

empty calorie snacks. This was so even in hard economic times.

The report comes after research conducted by the International

Food Information Council that found of those Americans trying

to improve their diets, 79 percent are changing the types of

foods they eat, 69 percent are changing the amount of foods

consumed, and 19 percent are changing their use of dietary supplements.

The 2009 Food & Health Survey found that healthfulness,

among other product attributes, is an important factor that

influences consumers’ purchasing decisions. When consumers are

choosing foods for themselves and their children, they are

interested in healthful components.

When searching for the right network marketing company it's
important to evaluate each company by a set of criteria:


Age of Company -
Companies that have been around more than 10 years,
are stable and secure, but you've also missed the
best growth years. If a company is under two years old,
you are taking a big of a risk, but also have the greatest
opportunity to take advantage of the maximum growth
phase. To minimize the risk of a company under 2 years old,
make sure that all the other criteria are met.


Management - It is critical that any company has a
strong management team. They should have a good mix
of successful corporate experience, network marketing
distributor experience, and the ability to successfully
handle money. If the founding managers are self-funding
the company, that is always a good sign, as they are fully
invested and will do whatever it will take to ensure success.


Product/Market - You want to have a product that is unique,
patented, highly consumable, and fits into a major market trend.
If it has a wow factor that's a big bonus.
Companies that are not positioned in front of big market trends,
grow slower. You want to find a company that is in the wellness field
(as it's the hottest market right now, due to the aging of the baby boomers).
If it offers a functional beverage, that's even better as that is
one of the fastest growing segments of both the
beverage and nutritional markets.


Compensation Plan - A plan that takes care of the part-timer, but is also lucrative enough for the big hitter is best. Look for bonuses that pay a person quickly and the bonuses that will help them cover their autoship. A high percentage of network marketers will quit after 90 days if they aren't covering their autoship. Also, you want to have unlimited income potential.
