Observations from Health Ingredients Europe 2014

Trending ingredients include phytonutrients like resveratrol, as well as quercetin and curcumin.

Having recently returned from the Health Ingredients Europe exhibition in Amsterdam, I noted a few ingredients that seemed to be trending, in terms of conversation at the show. Among them were:

Phytonutrients, and resveratrol in particular, which, according to several attendees that I spoke with, is being studied for its impact on a host of conditions ranging from its anti-inflammatory properties to its impact on blood sugar, weight loss and heart health, just to name a few. Quercetin and curcumin were noted as well.

With heart health being one of the top global health concerns, plant sterols/stanols were noted for the ability to help lower LDL cholesterol, as well as omega-3 fatty acids, from fish, krill and vegetarian sources such as chia or flax.

Fortitech Premixes by DSM highlighted our premix abilities to include any nutrient in any application through our innovative samples that included a fortified marshmallow to support a beauty-from-within platform, which was formulated with aloe vera, vitamin E and collagen. And our renowned market-ready, all-in-one beverage premix continued to be a hit. Addressing overall health and wellness, it was formulated with vitamins A, C and E. More information on our beverage service can be found by visiting www.fortitechpremixes.com/marketready.

Additionally, the DSM stand offered attendees an opportunity to learn about several of the company’s proprietary ingredients. Dedicated to supplying its customers with ingredients to support a wide variety of health concerns, DSM’s latest innovations included OPTISHARP Natural, a product which delivers zeaxanthin in a variety of natural forms and Metafolin L-MTHF folate, which ensures effective absorption and is supported by EFSA approved health claims. Other products include elaVida, a potent antioxidant found in olive fruits and life’sOMEGA 60, a high potency DHA/EPA oil.
