FMCG Gurus – Proactive Hydration & Industry Credibility – Trend Report – 2025

Report Description:

This report delves into the evolving concept of proactive hydration, a shift from just quenching thirst to actively maintaining optimal hydration for improved physical and mental performance. As consumer awareness around the health implications of hydration grows, so too does demand for products that go beyond traditional beverages. Yet confusion persists between thirst relief and true hydration.

This report explores how brands can address that gap, build consumer trust, and create meaningful product differentiation. By examining emerging behaviors, attitudes, and expectations, it offers valuable insights into how the food and drink industry can lead the way in promoting authentic, science-backed hydration solutions.

This report will look at the following areas:

  • The difference between thirst satisfaction and proactive hydration.
  • Consumer perceptions around hydration and health benefits.
  • The growing appeal of hydration-focused products beyond beverages.
  • Generational differences in hydration habits and beliefs.
  • Trust issues related to hydration claims and marketing jargon.
  • Opportunities for product innovation with clear scientific backing.
