Challenges:

The market faces challenges related to stringent regulations governing health claims, labeling, and ingredient safety, which can delay product launches and restrict marketing strategies. Additionally, while fitness-conscious consumers are generally knowledgeable about the benefits of sports nutrition beverages, the broader consumer base may lack awareness or understanding of product differentiation, highlighting the need for effective education and communication strategies.
