About Michael Underschultz
What drives my success in business is a passion for nutrition and health.With a background in Nutritional Science, I’ve built my career at the intersection of science, regulation, and innovation in the functional food, beverage, and consumer health industries. I specialize in global regulatory compliance and innovation, with a strong track record of successful submissions and experience in clinical trial design to support product safety and health claim substantiation. Currently, I serve as Director of Global Scientific & Regulatory Affairs Innovation at a leading multinational company, where I help shape regulatory and commercial strategies that bring evidence-based nutrition products to market—safely, effectively, and profitably.I’m passionate about translating science into real-world impact, building cross-functional partnerships, and navigating complex regulatory landscapes to enable innovation in health and wellness.
