Furthermore impeding international trade and market entrance are the absence of uniform worldwide guidelines for functional foods. Changing regulations might sometimes result in expensive rebranding campaigns or product redesigning initiatives. Some areas need thorough scientific evidence to back up health assertions, which manufacturers may find costly and time-consuming to create. Small businesses with limited means for scientific research and regulatory compliance may especially suffer from these obstacles. Furthermore causing consumer uncertainty and doubt about product claims are the complicated and occasionally unclear character of functional food rules. Companies in the functional dairy products industry must so carefully strike a balance between innovation and regulatory compliance, so slowing down cycles of product development and market expansion.
