Nestlé is expanding its presence in the healthy-longevity market with the launch of Solgar Prime, a new premium supplement range designed to help people maintain muscle strength, vitality and wellbeing through midlife and beyond.

The launch supports Nestlé's continued focus on healthy longevity, one of its strategic growth platforms. By 2040, nearly half of the world's population will be over 40, making healthy longevity and proactive nutrition important drivers of future growth. These segments are expected to deliver double-digit growth through 20301.

"Healthy longevity is one of the most dynamic growth areas in consumer health," said Serena Aboutboul, Head of the Nutrition & Health Strategic Business Unit at Nestlé. "As people live longer and seek to live healthier lives, they are increasingly looking for ways to maintain their strength, vitality and mobility over time. Solgar Prime expands our portfolio of science-based nutritional solutions designed to address those evolving needs and reflects our continued focus on helping people live healthier lives for longer."

Why creatine matters for muscle strength

Creatine is a naturally occurring substance that plays an important role in energy production.

It is stored mainly in our muscles, where it helps rapidly replenish energy when demand is high; for example, when climbing stairs, sprinting or carrying a heavy weight. 

Creatine is best known for its role in sport, and it has been extensively studied. Supplementation can support muscle strength and exercise performance, particularly when combined with resistance training.

But creatine is also becoming increasingly relevant to healthy longevity. As we age, maintaining muscle strength and function is important for staying active and living healthier for longer. That’s why the role of creatine goes well beyond sport.

As creatine plays a role in energy production in many tissues, current research is also exploring its potential role in brain energy, cognition, and other areas of healthy longevity.

The Solgar Prime range includes Vitality Creatine Complex, a daily powder formulated to help support muscle strength, energy, mobility, and bone and cartilage health. Studies2 show that creatine supplementation can help increase lean muscle mass and muscular strength, both of which typically decline with age. The range also includes Hair Growth Complex, with biotin and zinc, scientifically proven to support thicker, fuller hair. 

Solgar Prime will be available later this year in the United States and Europe, with further expansion to Asia in 2027. 

The launch builds on nearly 80 years of Solgar expertise in premium nutritional supplements. The brand is currently available in 65 countries worldwide.
