Nous parlons des rayons UV du soleil, des 6 différents types de peau, du photovieillissement, des cancers de peau, et de la crème solaire. En particulier, nous discuterons des différences entre les écrans chimiques et les minéraux et de comment faire l'auto-surveillance des lésions de sa propre peau. Notre tout nouveau programme de perte de poids appelé Transforma est entièrement en ligne et vise à vous aider à optimiser votre santé métabolique tout en retrouvant votre poids santé. Rendez-vous sur www.transforma.fit pour le webinaire gratuit qui explique le programme de manière plus complète et sans engagement. Rayons UV (ultra-violets) sur la peauVitamine D, le magnésium et les rayons UV 6 types de peau selon l'échelle Fitzpatrick et pourquoi connaître son type Photovieillissement 3 des types de cancers de la peau Salons de bronzage Les tatouages Dépistage et auto-surveillanceTotal Body Photography: DermaSensor L'ABCDE Écrans solaires : chimiques et minéraux L'indice de protection solaire ou SPF et l'UPFL'indice UV L'astuce de la semaine : l faut écouter l'épisode pour la connaître! Les messages clés de l'épisode sont : 1. Les rayons UV augmentent les risques de développer des carcinomes de la peau, mais le lien entre le soleil et le mélanome est moins clair.2. Le soleil fait bronzer, ce qui est bien pour la production de vitamine D, mais fait aussi vieillir notre peau plus rapidement. On ne veut pas éviter le soleil, mais on veut un équilibre et utiliser des vêtements et des écrans solaires pour diminuer les risques. 3. Il est important de bien connaître son type de peau et de tenir compte des autres facteurs comme l'altitude, la latitude, et l'indice UV du jour pour choisir un écran solaire adéquat. 4. Il existe des écrans solaires chimiques, pouvant potentiellement contenir des perturbateurs endocriniens, et des écrans minéraux, qui sont considérés comme sécuritaires et efficaces. 5. Le plus important est d'utiliser un écran solaire que l'on aime et que l'on va accepter de porter. En terminant ce 93e épisode de Santé-vous mieux!, nous aimerions vous aviser que, contrairement à l'été dernier, nous allons faire relâche cet été et repartir avec une 3e saison dès septembre 2025.

Ce projet a été créé aux Etats Unis en 1992. Dans les années 1990, de nouvelles techniques d'analyse de l'ADN commencent à révolutionner les enquêtes criminelles. Et deux avocats new-yorkais, Barry Scheck et Peter Neufeld réalisent que ces outils pourraient aussi être utilisés a posteriori, pour réexaminer les preuves de vieux dossiers judiciaires.Ils fondent alors le Projet Innocence, avec un objectif simple mais ambitieux : utiliser l'ADN pour innocenter les personnes condamnées à tort.Le besoin est immense. Aux États-Unis, le système judiciaire repose fortement sur les témoignages oculaires, les aveux (parfois extorqués), les identifications douteuses ou des expertises scientifiques dépassées. Or, de nombreuses études ont montré que ces éléments sont loin d'être infaillibles.Grâce aux tests ADN, le Projet Innocence a mis en évidence des erreurs judiciaires massives. Selon ses statistiques, depuis sa création, plus de 375 personnes ont été formellement innocentées grâce à ces analyses. Parmi elles, 21 avaient été condamnées à mort.Chaque dossier raconte une tragédie humaine : des années, parfois des décennies passées derrière les barreaux pour des crimes jamais commis.Mais le Projet Innocence ne se limite pas à ces cas spectaculaires. Il a aussi contribué à réformer le système judiciaire. L'association milite pour des pratiques plus rigoureuses :amélioration des procédures d'identification ;enregistrement vidéo des interrogatoires ;contrôle des expertises scientifiques ;préservation systématique des preuves ADN.Le mouvement a essaimé dans le monde entier. Des "Innocence Projects" existent aujourd'hui au Canada, au Royaume-Uni, en Australie, en Europe… En France, l'initiative a inspiré la création de la Clinique juridique de l'Innocence en 2013.Au-delà des chiffres, le Projet Innocence a changé le regard sur la justice. Il a montré qu'aucun système n'est infaillible. Même dans des démocraties avancées, des innocents peuvent être condamnés. Le recours à des outils scientifiques rigoureux — comme l'ADN — est donc essentiel pour garantir un procès équitable.En résumé : en réexaminant les preuves avec des méthodes modernes, le Projet Innocence a permis de libérer des centaines de personnes injustement condamnées. Mais surtout, il a rappelé une vérité fondamentale : en matière de justice, la recherche de la vérité doit toujours primer. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Aujourd'hui, nous parlons de thermothérapie par le chaud, c'est-à-dire de sauna, et non pas d'aller sur les plages de Cancún, quoiqu'on n'a aucun doute que pour certains d'entre nous, et on s'inclut là-dedans, la plagethérapie, c'est sûr que ça ferait du bien! Mais pour aujourd'hui, on va se concentrer sur les saunas, leurs bienfaits et ce qu'en dit la science et la physiologie humaine. Mais avant d'aller plus loin, nous voulons vous donner des nouvelles de notre tout nouveau programme de perte de poids en ligne qui s'appelle Transforma et que des centaines de participants ont commencé depuis le 1er mai, à l'occasion de l'ouverture officielle du programme. À date, les commentaires sont très positifs, plusieurs personnes rapportent déjà des pertes de poids de 5 à 20 livres, avec plus d'énergie et une meilleure compréhension de la façon dont le métabolisme fonctionne. Évidemment, chaque personne est unique et aucun programme de perte de poids ne peut garantir à 100% que tout le monde perdra du poids, sainement et efficacement, mais nous sommes suffisamment confiantes envers notre programme que nous offrons une garantie de satisfaction ou un remboursement complet. Certaines conditions s'appliquent. Vous voulez en savoir plus? Rendez-vous sur www.transforma.fit pour visionner notre webinaire gratuit et voir si c'est le bon programme pour vous. Les racines culturelles du saunaLes critères de Bradford Hill pour analyser la solidité des associations observées dans les études épidémiologiques. Les bienfaits soutenus par la scienceSanté cardiovasculaire Santé cognitive Effets étendus : mortalité, performance physique, sommeil, santé mentale et douleurLes limites des études existantesLes mécanismes impliqués (systèmes cardiovasculaire, nerveux, endocrinien, immunitaire et cellulaire)* Vasodilatation périphérique * Transpiration abondante * Activation du système nerveux autonome , avec une augmentation transitoire de la fréquence cardiaque et du débit cardiaque, comparable à ce qu'on observe lors d'un exercice physique modéré * Réduction du métabolisme basal, ce qui induit une profonde relaxation.Amélioration de la résilience des organes L'hormèse et les réponses adaptatives Les principales adaptations induites* Production accrue de protéines de choc thermique * Stimulation du facteur neurotrophique dérivé du cerveau (BDNF) * Amélioration de la sensibilité à l'insuline* Biogenèse mitochondrialeEffets hormonaux : Noradrénaline (ou norépinéphrine), bêta-endorphines, hormone de croissance (GH), prolactine Stress oxydatif contrôlé et fonctions vasculaires Effets anti-inflammatoires et immunitaires Petit guide pratico pratique pour une utilisation optimale C'est maintenant l'heure de l'astuce de la semaine : il faut écouter l'épisode pour la connaîtreLes messages clés de l'épisode sont : 1. Le sauna est une pratique ancestrale à visée thérapeutique et sociale, ancrée dans de nombreuses cultures.2. Les bienfaits attribués au sauna sont nombreux, mais souvent corrélatifs : il faut distinguer l'association de la causalité.3. Les bienfaits physiologiques du sauna sont biologiquement plausibles et impliquent des mécanismes adaptatifs puissants.4. L'effet du sauna résulte d'une synergie entre le stress thermique, la réponse hormonale et les facteurs sociaux.Hébergé par Ausha.

1. La faim homéostatique, c'est quoi ?C'est la faim naturelle, déclenchée par un besoin réel d'énergie. Elle apparaît progressivement, avec des signes comme un vide à l'estomac, des gargouillis, une légère fatigue, et une envie de manger variée, pas spécifique à un type d'aliment.2. Les hormones clésGhréline : hormone qui stimule la faim, produite par l'estomac. Elle augmente avant les repas et baisse après.Leptine : hormone de la satiété produite par les cellules graisseuses, informe le cerveau des réserves énergétiques. Elle peut devenir inefficace en cas de résistance.Insuline : contrôle la glycémie, ses fluctuations provoquent parfois des fausses faims.Cortisol : hormone du stress, qui peut augmenter l'appétit et perturber les signaux de faim.3. Facteurs qui dérèglent la faim homéostatiqueManque de sommeil : augmente la ghréline et diminue la leptine, ce qui augmente l'appétit.Alimentation riche en sucres rapides : provoque des variations de glycémie, déclenchant fausses faims.Stress chronique : élève le cortisol et perturbe la sensation de faim.Régimes restrictifs : provoquent une surproduction de ghréline et une baisse de leptine, favorisant les fringales.Consommation d'aliments ultra-transformés : brouille les signaux de satiété.4. Stratégies pour retrouver une faim saineStabiliser la glycémie en réduisant les sucres rapides et en privilégiant protéines, fibres et bonnes graisses.Dormir suffisamment (7 à 9 heures) pour équilibrer les hormones de la faim.Gérer le stress par des techniques de relaxation et du temps de pause.Manger en pleine conscience, sans distraction, pour mieux écouter sa faim et sa satiété.Accepter la sensation de faim modérée entre les repas sans la craindre.5. Cas pratiquesPersonne ayant faim tôt le matin avec fausses fringales : privilégier un petit-déjeuner riche en protéines et gras.Personne sans faim le matin mais grosses fringales le soir : rééquilibrer le rythme circadien avec exposition au soleil et horaire de repas adaptés.Personne mangeant sainement mais stockant du gras : stress et surentraînement peuvent être en cause, il faut favoriser repos et récupération.6. ConclusionLa faim homéostatique est un signal fiable si les hormones sont équilibrées. Le but est de reconnaître la vraie faim et d'y répondre juste, sans excès ni privation. Cela demande un environnement hormonal stable, un sommeil suffisant, une gestion du stress et une alimentation adaptée.Veux-tu que je fasse un tableau résumé encore plus synthétique ou que je t'aide à mettre en place un plan pratique basé sur ces principes ?Hébergé par Ausha.

Le concept de "Teddy Bear Hospital" est né en Allemagne au début des années 2000, avec une idée simple : rendre le milieu médical moins effrayant en passant par le jeu. Le principe ? Chaque enfant vient avec son doudou qui devient le patient. Bracelet d'admission, piqûres, prise de sang, radios, passage en laboratoire, mais aussi consultation avec des clowns chirurgiens farfelus : tout est fait pour faire sourire et rassurer. Votre petit devient le soignant, et l'hôpital devient un terrain de découverte.A Jette, ce samedi 24 mai 2025, l'Hôpital Universitaire des Enfants Reine Fabiola deviendra, le temps d'un après-midi, l'Hôpital des Nounours. A un autre moment de l'année, c'est Saint-Luc qui s'y colle avec la Clinique des Nounours.L'événement du 24 mai à l'Hôpital des Enfants de Jette (le seul hôpital belge 100 % dédié aux enfants) est gratuit, mais les places sont limitées. Cela se passe entre 13h et 17h. Infos pratiques à retrouver sur nostalgie.be.Et quand le doudou est vraiment blessé, avec un œil manquant ou une couture fatiguée ? Il existe des réparateurs de peluches, de plus en plus nombreux en Belgique et ailleurs. Parmi eux, A-pluche si affinités près de Namur, propose des restaurations sous le joli nom d'Hospidoudou. Vous pouvez lui envoyer le doudou par la poste ou passer sur place.Du côté de Namur toujours, Les doudous de Nanous assurent aussi ce service de sauvetage pour peluches fatiguées. Et en Bourgogne, Les Créé Natures vont plus loin encore : à partir d'un dessin d'enfant, elles fabriquent un doudou unique, chargé d'émotion et de poésie.Car derrière chaque peluche abîmée, il y a des souvenirs, des odeurs, des morceaux d'enfance à préserver. Un geste doux, réparateur, autant pour les doudous… que pour leurs propriétaires.Vous aimez ce contenu ? Alors n'hésitez pas à vous abonner, à lui donner des étoiles et à partager ce podcast autour de vous. Ça nous aide à nous faire connaître et à essaimer les idées constructives qui rendent le monde plus joli !Une chronique signée Leslie Rijmenams à retrouver (aussi) sur Nostalgie et www.nostalgie.be.
Aujourd'hui, nous parlons de la faim et de ce que les signaux de faim indiquent réellement. La faim est un puissant stimulus biologique de survie, mais de nos jours, elle peut aussi se dérégler et entraîner la prise de poids et la dysfonction métabolique, et ça, c'est nouveau dans l'histoire de l'humanité. Avant d'aller plus loin, nous aimerions vous mentionner que les livres Nourrir son cerveau soigner son mental de la psychiatre Georgia Ede, Les muscles votre plus grande force vitale de la Dre Gabrielle Lyon, et Résistance à l'insuline de Benjamin Bikman sont maintenant disponibles dans notre boutique en ligne accessible sur cuisinemed.com. Ce sont des livres fan-tas-tiques pour mieux comprendre la santé mentale en lien avec le métabolisme, l'importance de la masse musculaire, et la résistance à l'insuline. Ces livres ont été traduits en français par les éditions Thierry Souccar. Sophie raconte son histoire de diète au tilapia. Jusqu'à tout récemment, les deux principaux outils dont nous disposions pour traiter le surpoids étaient les régimes hypocaloriques et la chirurgie bariatrique. Maintenant, nous comprenons mieux. Les trois « pourquoi » de la perte de poids4 faims à comprendre : La faim homéostatiqueLa faim hédoniqueLa faim émotionnelle La faim conditionnéeDans la partie 2, à l'épisode 90, nous parlerons des hormones qui régulent la faim homéostatique et de trucs et astuces qu'on peut essayer pour les déjouer.

1) Tout sur les lochies, ces saignements qui surviennent au tout début du post-partum Après l'accouchement, le corps poursuit son travail avec les lochies, des saignements qui aident à cicatriser et nettoyer l'utérus, prévenant les infections. L'ocytocine, une hormone, déclenche aussi des contractions utérines appelées tranchées, souvent plus fortes après un deuxième enfant. Manon Germond interroge Claire de Luca, maman de deux enfants, et Magali Bonzon, sage-femme indépendante et enseignante à la haute école de Santé du Canton de Vaud. 2) La repousse des dents chez les humains et chez les autres animaux Pourquoi n'avons-nous qu'une série de dents de rechange alors que d'autres animaux ont un stock de réserve pour ainsi dire illimité? Des scientifiques travaillent à essayer de faire repousser nos dents comme celles des alligators. Lucia Sillig recueille les explications de Stéphane Durual, enseignant chercheur à la Clinique universitaire de médecine dentaire, à la Faculté de Médecine de l'Université de Genève, et Marcus Clauss, co-directeur de la clinique pour animaux de zoo domestiques et sauvages de l'Université de Zurich. 3) Notre urine est-elle vraiment stérile? L'urine est-elle stérile? Des découvertes sur le microbiome urinaire nous disent que non. Entre E.coli et Lactobacille la guerre est ouverte pour éviter les infections urinaires.
Aujourd'hui, nous parlons d'un sujet qui touche des millions de femmes dans le monde, souvent sans même qu'elles ne le sachent : le syndrome des ovaires polykystiques, plus connu sous le nom de SOPK. En particulier nous aborderons son lien avec la résistance à l'insuline et ce qu'il est possible de faire pour l'améliorer ou le renverser. Statistiques sur le SOPK Les critères diagnostiques : Anovulation chronique ou ovulation irrégulièreHyperandrogénie clinique ou biologiqueOvaires polykystiques à l'échographieCe ne sont pas des kystes. Problème de fertilité, mais aussi désordre métabolique et hormonal complexe qui affecte la santé physique, mentale et émotionnelle des femmes qui en sont atteintes.Les phénotypes Le SOPK ne se limite pas aux ovaires, et est évolutif. La résistance à l'insuline est l'un des mécanismes les plus courants associés au SOPK, mais elle n'est pas seule en cause. Les symptômes courants du SOPKL'insuline, la pierre angulaire Le test de KraftPourquoi toutes les femmes qui ont une résistance à l'insuline n'ont pas toutes un SOPK? Les approches thérapeutiques naturelles et pharmacologiquesLe jeûne et le cycle menstruel Les produits naturels qui peuvent aider L'approche pharmacologique : module les symptômesC'est maintenant l'heure de l'astuce de la semaine : il faut écouter l'épisode pour la connaître Les messages clés de l'épisode sont : Le SOPK est un syndrome systémique, pas seulement un trouble ovarien.Il affecte plusieurs systèmes du corps (métabolique, hormonal, émotionnel) et ne se limite pas à la fertilité ni à la présence de kystes sur les ovaires.La résistance à l'insuline est un facteur central du SOPK.Elle concerne jusqu'à 70 % des femmes atteintes, parfois de façon subtile, et alimente un cercle vicieux hormonal et inflammatoire aux conséquences multiples.Une prise en charge globale et personnalisée est essentielle.Nutrition adaptée, exercice musculaire, gestion du stress, bon sommeil et, au besoin, soutien pharmacologique ou naturel permettent d'agir sur les causes profondes plutôt que de masquer les symptômes.Nous aimerions remercier chaleureusement la gynécologue Martine Aubry pour sa relecture du présent épisode et ses conseils judicieux. Pour en savoir plus sur le SOPK et son lien avec la résistance à l'insuline et que vous lisez l'anglais, nous vous suggérons le livre PCOS Plan de Nadia Pateguana, préfacé par Dr Jason Fung. www.cuisinemed.comHébergé par Ausha.

Que se passe-t-il quand l'IA devient capable d'analyser des millions de données de santé ?Julia Rebouillat a évolué entre la recherche médicale, l'innovation technologique et l'industrie. Dans cet épisode, elle nous embarque dans les coulisses des essais cliniques et du diagnostic médical, et montre comment l'IA bouleverse les pratiques, mais aussi les équilibres.Julia décrypte avec précision les promesses, les limites et les dérives potentielles d'un secteur en pleine accélération.Ce que vous allez entendre dans cet épisode :Pourquoi l'IA peut accélérer la recherche médicale… mais sur des bases de données encore trop biaiséesComment une IA mal entraînée peut aggraver les inégalités de santéCe que signifie vraiment “médecine personnalisée” quand seuls certains patients y ont accèsEn quoi l'IA transforme la pratique des médecins — et leur charge mentaleLe rôle clé du radiologue augmenté… et le spectre de son remplacementL'émergence du patient “augmenté”, ultra-informé, face à un médecin encore “non-augmenté”Les usages pro de l'IA par Julia : stratégie, communication, leadership, marketingComment l'IA modifie déjà les relations de travail (emails lissés, conflits désamorcés)Un épisode riche pour comprendre comment l'intelligence artificielle, dans le domaine de la santé, ne remplace pas l'humain, mais l'oblige à se réinventer — du chercheur au médecin, du patient au manager.Écoutez cet épisode si vous vous demandez ce que l'IA change vraiment dans la santé… et ce qu'elle ne pourra jamais faire à notre place.Hébergé par Ausha.

Une autre jeune fille est hospitalisée pour les mêmes symptômes et travaille également au même endroit. Elles semblent toutes avoir été empoisonnées et l'une d'elles meurt très rapidement. Une enquête est ouverte pour tenter de déterminer les causes de ce triple empoisonnement. Il faut faire vite car les deux survivantes sont dans un état critique. Malgré les efforts des médecins, Rani meurt à son tour mais mentionne des bonbons qui lui ont été données avant qu'elle ne tombe malade. L'inspecteur Mali va devoir se contenter de ce détail pour trouver le coupable.

Show Notes: In this episode of Unleashed, Will Bachman interviews Bart Sayer, an expert on the beauty industry. Bart worked for nine years at the Estée Lauder Companies, most recently as the International General Manager for one of its largest brands, Clinique, managing the $1B P&L. Previously, Bart was a partner at Booz & Company (now Strategy&, part of PwC), focused on strategy and commercial transformation in the Consumer & Retail sectors. The conversation focuses on understanding the structure of the beauty market and the main drivers of value creation. The Beauty Industry Explained Bart explains that the beauty industry is divided into four main categories: skincare, makeup, hair, care, and body. The market is divided into luxury and mass segments, with luxury beauty expected to grow between six and 8% in the foreseeable future. Taking the example of the United States, mass brands are more likely to be found in drugstores, such as Walgreens and CVs. Premium brands are more available in department stores or specialty multi, such as Sephora and Ulta, and a third channel being direct to consumer. At Estee Lauder they believed that distribution defines your equity, so prestige brands are careful about where they appear, hence the careful consideration and strict conditions associated with entering a channel like Amazon. Looking beyond the NA market, Travel Retail has been an important growth vehicle for luxury beauty brands over the past decade, though this growth has tempered in the past few years. Future growth of the beauty industry will remain defined by its two largest markets, the United States and China, while up-and-coming middle market countries will also represent attractive opportunities (e.g., India, Mexico, Brazil). Manufacturing, Testing and Ingredients The ingredients in mass and prestige products can differ in terms of the scarcity or rarity of the actives, including use of proprietary ingredients and formulations. Formulation philosophies vary widely across different entities. Many brands, for example, put extra protections in place to ensure product safety for sensitive skin and/or to conduct rigorous allergy testing. Bart discusses the importance of clinical testing in product and research development, highlighting that it is a high barrier to entry for indie brands. He also discusses the evolution of more nimble production models, including the prevalence of contract manufacturers that can manufacture the latest ingredients and bespoke formulations in quicker and more cost-effective ways than many of the brands themselves. This approach is not binary, as L'Oreal has over 40 different manufacturing facilities worldwide. Before leaving the manufacturing discussion, Bart quickly hit upon another topic, that of the evolution to more earned media-led marketing models, whereby companies seize organic market buzz before amplifying these messages with paid media. Local vs. Global Adaptation The concept of local versus global adaptation is crucial in the beauty industry. Brands must find a locally relevant articulation of their brand essence. Large media companies often have global ambassadors who can speak for the brand, but if a local face is not available, the brand may not get the traction needed. To succeed, brands must be more reactive to local market trends, deploying local influencers, tailored messaging and selecting locally relevant forums for generating PR, both online and offline. Indie and Newer Brands The conversation turned to the shift towards indie and newer brands in the beauty retail industry. The reasons behind the growth of the indies include lower barriers to entry on social media channels, an agile marketing model, the wide availability of contract manufacturers, and channel partners like Sephora that are focused on curating exclusive collections of the next “it” beauty brands. Often for these indie brands, the problem is not the launch itself (recruitment), but the stickiness (retention). Many of these companies struggle with repeat purchases, which are the key to success. Sales and Distribution in the Beauty Industry Bart discussed several high growth channels, including Sephora, a leading premium beauty retailer owned by the LVMH group, travel retailer and beauty e-tailers such as Zalando and Notino. Traditional points of distribution, such as department stores and perfumeries, have seen slower growth, especially in the West (and far less so in the East). Whatever the channel, the importance of constructing good “self-navigating experience” for prestige consumers is key. Across many of these newer retailers, clean beauty is a key theme, as is green and sustainable, free of parabens, sulfates, certain ingredients and fragrances. This raises the bar for brands to prove their bona fides in terms of ingredient publishing and sourcing. The conversation then pivoted to challenges in the supply chain, including shelf life of products (especially for consumers in the East) and SKU proliferation. Demand Forecasting Robust demand forecasting is crucial for brands to succeed to avoid out-of-stock situations and, conversely, the proliferation of excess. This can be particularly problematic when trying to create buzz and excitement with limited edition collections such as those sold over the holidays. Given profit, brand equity and sustainability concerns, rands have increasingly tried to err on the side of caution in their forecasts (FOMO). SKU periphery proliferation is another issue that brands are constantly fighting, seeking a balance between getting new out there while staying consistent and building out their portfolio. Store Design and Staffing Models In department stores, cosmetics brands often have significant control over the design of their stores, including all signage, key visuals and other elements of visual merchandising (e.g., gondola design, planogram setup). Done correctly, these can be huge differentiators. Unsurprisingly, prestige beauty brands have armies of store design, visual merchandising and staff (beauty advisor) education teams. Cost sharing with retail partners – CAPEX, staffing, promo – vary by channel and partner, thus representing a critical point in commercial negotiations (along with other topics like trade margin). The Lucrative Nature of the Beauty Industry The cosmetics industry is a highly lucrative business with operating profits ranging from 10 to 25%. Gross margins can be 65% or more, depending on the brand and the type of product. Highest gross margin categories include skincare and luxury fragrances. However, there is no room for complacency, with many waging a constant war to lower the cost of goods through a combination of gross to net improvements, price increases, mix optimization, promo efficiencies and, of course, manufacturing savings. A hero-product focus is needed to get scale, thus providing ballast for marketing investments. Premiumization trade trends are continuing across categories and subcategories, with no sign of these trends abating.
