Chia Seed Flour Delivers
Nuchia Foods Corp. has launched Nuchia Chia Seed Flour to manufacturers of baked wellness foods, to provide a superior product with numerous health-promoting attributes, says the company. The shelf-stable Nuchia Chia Seed Flour is claimed to be a low-fat, gluten-free, nutritionally dense flour providing significant levels of omega-3 ALA and essential minerals to the daily diet. In baked foods applications, it tastes and functions similarly to whole wheat; it can replace wheat, cup for cup, in recipes; or it can be used as an ingredient to create a variety of enriched foods.

Promoting Good Health
Marks & Spencer has launched a new Super Juice drink which helps health-conscious consumers lower their cholesterol, says the company. The Red Grape, Blueberry and Blackcurrant Super Juice, which hit shelves in the UK this week, is boosted by the addition of PromOat™, the oat beta glucan soluble fiber ingredient from Swedish company Biovelop AB. PromOat is a versatile, functional ingredient that enables the well-recognized health benefits of oats to be incorporated into a broad spectrum of foods and drinks, thereby opening up many exciting opportunities for manufacturers and retailers to help tackle these health issues in a natural way—and it does not require consumers to alter their eating habits.
