Introduction Overview
Since 2005, NMI’s Global Dietary Supplements/OTC/Rx Consumer Studies are devoted to understanding consumer attitudes and behaviors and their impact on market dynamics!
Natural Marketing Institute (NMI) is pleased to present its Brazil 2019 Supplements/OTC/Rx Report. This comprehensive report analyzes the dietary supplement market from the consumer perspective with 90+ pages of consumer attitudes, behaviors and product usage patterns surrounding dietary supplements, over-the-counter medication and pharmaceuticals.
This research uncovers how consumers integrate this mix of self-care methods into their current lifestyle and reveals the motivations and the challenges they encounter in their pursuit of health. Many factors are driving multiple categories across Brazil. For example, aging drives condition specific needs, and increased consumer knowledge and desire for specific product features and benefits drive sustainable, organic, and plant-based options. The need for education and an understanding of the drivers that affect consumer behavior patterns has never been stronger.
The overall objectives of the report are to develop unique and specific consumer insight to maximize client learnings and opportunities in terms of attracting new consumers, increasing compliance and developing compelling messaging and communications strategies.
Some of the topics covered in the report:
Top “White Space” Opportunity areas
The size and demographic composition of Consumer groups
Highly engaged consumer segments in supplement use
Health and Wellness composition of various supplement user groups
‘Likely User’ groups to buy supplements –Condition management

NMI’s Consumer Segmentation
NMI’s Global Health and Wellness consumer segmentation reveals five well-defined segments with distinctive paths toward health and wellness
This proprietary global health and wellness segmentation, based on more than 40 variables, measures commonalities and differences between five distinct consumer groups using k-means cluster analysis. The comprehensive statistical modeling process used to derive NMI’s Health and Wellness consumer segmentation is based on the following techniques and methodologies:
- Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of nearly 200 measures of consumer attitudes and behaviors regarding health and wellness, organic products, supplements, exercise, and many other topics. The analysis identified more than 25 potential factors.
- The identification of 31 measures from the factor analysis that best represented each of the potential factors and maintained consistency with the previous years’ segmentation solution.
- K-means cluster analysis which examined numerous potential solutions to determine which segmentation model provided the optimal solution, based on the following criteria:
- Maximum differentiation between consumer groups
- Maximum homogeneity within each consumer group
- NMI’s Health and Wellness Segmentation tool has 92% accuracy in predicting segment membership.
The analysis determined that a five-cluster solution was optimal. The five segments listed below are mutually exclusive. Within each segment, the key attitudinal drivers of health and wellness exert unique levels of influence.
