Nexira will use this year’s SupplySide West to present complete and innovative, 360-degree solutions to consumer needs, including weight management.


LEARN MORE ABOUT INGREDIENT TECHNOLOGY


Consumers consistently rate weight loss as top health concern and in 2020, 40% of consumers worldwide said they wanted to lose weight(1). However, the approach and the needs have changed: consumers are now willing to consider weight management through a holistic way, as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Before SupplySide West, Nexira will host a free webinar on Oct. 10, 2023 around the same topic. The webinar is titled: “Holistic Weight Management: How to Address this Shifting Market & Adapt Your Nutraceutical Offer.” REGISTER NOW.

Meanwhile, food scientists are invited to visit Nexira at its SupplySide West Booth #5825. There, Nexira will launch two new ingredients for nutritional supplements, as a natural contribution to boost weight management programs.

VinOgrape™ Plus for microbiome modulation
Through its long-term expertise in prebiotic acacia, Nexira has developed a strong knowledge on microbiome. This fascinating category offers promising opportunities for new product launches over the next years on the gut-X axis. Combining its expertise in microbiome and its unique sourcing and process on grapes, Nexira launches VinOgrape™ Plus, a natural grape extract rich in powerful antioxidant compounds (OPC and anthocyanins).

VinOgrape™ Plus has shown proven prebiotic effect by significantly modulating the gut microbiome profile after dysbiosis induction. VinOgrape™ has also significantly increased the abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila, suggesting a beneficial role in metabolic disorder.

New complex for appetite control
Carolean™ is a proprietary, patent-pending complex specifically designed for appetite control.

With more than 20 years of experience and unrivaled expertise on sourcing and processing, Nexira has established a leading position with its star ingredient in the weight management market: cactus. The recent acquisition of a Swiss company, an expert in carob processing, allows Nexira to add valuable resource to address satiety consumer’s objectives.

Carolean™ complex is the fruit of combined R&D efforts to design an innovative solution that provides both effectiveness and convenience for appetite control.

Carolean™ is a patent-pending complex, combining carob and nopal. Synergistic efficacy has been demonstrated to show the superiority of Carolean™ complex vs single ingredients to reduce appetite and limit cravings. Simply put, each ingredient has a limited capacity of viscosity but when combined, the viscosity becomes exponential contributing to extremely positive results when ingested.

What’s more? Try POW(D)ER from mother nature
Come visit Nexira’s booth on October 25, from 11am to 2pm and sample a green smoothie made with Nexira’s POW(D)ER natural, organic, and nutrient-dense ingredients. The smoothie has an alkalizing recipe with alfalfa, matcha and lemon for cleansing, detox, and antioxidant benefits.
