Nexira Unveils Innovative Solutions for Gut Microbiome and Functional Beverages at Food Ingredients Europe
Nexira, global leader in acacia fiber and natural ingredients for food and nutrition, is proud to announce the highlighting of two innovative ingredient ranges at the upcoming Food Ingredients Europe trade show. These new solutions target gut microbiome health and nutritional & health benefits in functional beverages, addressing the evolving needs of consumers and R&D professionals.
Consumers are adopting a holistic approach to their diets, seeking nutritious options with higher protein and fiber content while reducing fat and sugar intake, striking a balance between indulgence and well-being. Nexira’s innovative solutions are designed to meet the evolving needs of R&D professionals and consumers.
Gut microbiome awareness
Nexira will present inavea™ carob & acacia, a complementary combination of carob and acacia fibers. While carob is widely used as a natural texturizer, it is now being innovatively as a prebiotic fiber. To promote a healthier microbiome, this new reference stimulates gut microbiota diversity, ie the number of different species of bacteria in the gut microbiome.
inavea™ carob & acacia has demonstrated microbiota modulation with the promotion of beneficial bacteria and Short Chain Fatty Acids. Thanks to the different structure of acacia and carob fibers, inavea™ carob & acacia offers a full spectrum fermentation, acting across the entire intestine.
Nexira has tested this new ingredient in different formulations, such as nutritional powders, drinkable yogurt, fruit juices or low-sugar muffins. inavea™ carob & acacia offers a clean and natural solution for improving the nutritional profile, for fiber enrichment or for adding a health benefit.
This new reference completes inavea™, a comprehensive range of precision prebiotics, each targeting a specific benefit or application for a personalized approach. inavea™ references are sustainably sourced, organic certified and carbon neutral. The entire range is certified organic, FODMAP-friendly, halal and kosher.
Empower your beverages with botanical extracts
Nexira will present its new range of botanical extracts dedicated to the beverage industry. The sector is dynamic, and the outlook is very promising. As a major supplier for the food supplement industry, Nexira can rely on its botanical sourcing and extraction expertise. The range has been designed to meet the requirements of the beverage industry in terms of both sensory profile and market trends. Nexira will highlight its flagship references: guarana, ginseng, green tea, hibiscus and lemon balm. These extracts are associated in the scientific literature with various nutritional & health benefits: antioxidants, vitality, energy, calm or relaxation. They are appealing to consumers thanks to their storytelling around their origin and traditional use.
As an example, our water extracted lemon balm is organic-certified and only sourced in France from local producers. Standardized in rosmarinic acid, Nexira’s lemon balm extract is associated with better relaxation and sleep, benefits that consumers are looking for today.
