Carolean™, a synergistic formulation based on carob and nopal, is a proprietary patent-pending complex specifically designed for appetite control.
With over 20 years of experience and unrivalled expertise on sourcing and processing, Nexira has established a leading position with its star ingredient: Cactus on the weight management market.
Nexira has acquired a Swiss company, expert in carob processing. Carolean™ complex is the fruit of combined R&D efforts to design an innovative solution.
Carolean™ provides both effectiveness and convenience for appetite control. The new patent-pending ingredient has demonstrated a clear ability to reduce appetite and limit cravings.
In conditions mimicking the ingestion (Temperature, pH), Carolean™ shows a superior kinetic reaching the satiety culmination quicker when compared to recognized market standards. 15 minutes after ingestion, already 70% of the viscosity is reached which optimizes the satiety effect more rapidly.
A recent in vivo study conducted in 2024 has substantiated Carolean™’s mechanism of action and demonstrated benefits in regulating appetite for 4 weeks at equivalent human use level (3g/day). Gastric emptying is the process by which food is moved from the stomach into the small intestine. It depends on the nature of the food consumed (consistency, volume, caloric content…) and plays a crucial role in regulating appetite. Delaying gastric emptying is key to improve the feeling of fullness after eating.
Nexira scientific results show:
• A significant slowing down of gastric emptying in both single and prolonged uses.
• A remarkable food intake reduction (-47% on average) as a consequence (figure below).
Our unique proprietary process enables a large variety of powder quality and behavior which makes our complex notably effective at ambient temperature.
Carolean™ is suitable for food supplements:
