Evolva announced today that Swedish wellness innovatorNutrinovate has selected Evolva’s Veri-te™ resveratrol for its Reserol healthy ageing skin care supplement range.

The Reserol product range combines resveratrol and a novel Funtional Film Technology™ (FFT), Nutrinovate’s dissolvable oral film strip system that enables functional ingredients like resveratrol to be delivered to the body through the inside of the cheek. This technology has demonstrated a number of advantages like direct distribution to the bloodstream, faster bioavailability, and ease of use. Developed in Sweden, FFT is the result of 10 years of research and development, and is protected by a number of global patents.

 Reserol is produced and marketed by Nutinovate as a ‘Beauty From Within’ concept product. With strong research showing resveratrol can boost skin elasticity, reduce age spots and wrinkle depth, and improve skin smoothness*, Reserol is proving a popular product in the healthy ageing category. The oral film strips each contain 20 mgs of Veri-te™ resveratrol. The daily recommended dose is 6 film strips. With both a plain and mint flavour product already in the portfolio, Nutrinovate has plans to launch additional products within the next few months, including a resveratrol with vitamins film. The product is sold globally online via the Reserolweb shop. Nutrinovate distributes Reserol in two large pharmacy chains in Sweden, and is in talks with retail outlets in the UK as part of its planned expansion.

“We see Functional Film Technology as a game changer in the food supplement business. It is a perfect carrier for ingredients like Veri-te™ resveratrol, where maximising absorption is important”, Nutrinovate CEO Magnus Nillson-Val said. “From our perspective, the range of new products is huge. Evolva will definitely be a preferred partner for our future business development projects.”

 “Evolva is very pleased that Veri-te™ was chosen as the source of resveratrol for these products. we are excited to be such a central part of this innovative product,” Evolva SVP of Health & Wellness Angela Tsetsis said. “Nutrinovate’s founders are already proving to be highly motivated and successful in developing both their sales channels and product portfolio. We look forward to growing with them in the future.”

Resveratrol is a polyphenol found in several types of plants, including red grapes, blueberries, and nuts. Resveratrol plays a defense mechanism role to help protect against environmental stressors. Scientific evidence suggests that it can also help promote healthy ageing in humans and animals. Resveratrol is drawing a lot of attention in the scientific community with over 1100 studies published in 2016 alone; the total number of publications on resveratrol now exceeds 9000, making it one of the fastest growing bodies of evidence for a health and wellness ingredient. This published research and clinical data suggests that resveratrol can aide in healthy ageing through maintaining bone health, cardiovascular health, blood glucose control, healthy cognitive function, skin youthfulness and oral health.

At drinktec 2017, Taiyo will present versatile tea extracts with a range of health benefits under the Sunphenon® banner. Distinguished by their high polyphenol and catechin content and their proven antioxidant effects, Sunphenon® extracts come in powder form and are easy to use. In water, the functional ingredient dissolves completely and thus offers numerous application possibilities.

 Sunphenon® tea extracts are exclusively made from green tea leaves. Due to their high content of secondary plant compounds, they are credited with many positive properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, odor-suppressing and thermogenic effects. This makes them truly multitalented. The water-soluble extracts serve as functional ingredients in beauty, energy, wellness and sports drinks. Thanks to their powder format, they are also ideal for use in instant beverages, which are becoming increasingly popular.

Taiyo will also showcase a refreshing everyday product development based on the raw extracts: Sunphenon® instant teas. In addition to green tea leaves, rosehip fruits and leaves from the mulberry tree or the Pu-erh or Qingmao tea bush (a subspecies of Camellia sinensis) are used for their production.

Sabinsa Corporation announced today that it has successfully concluded its Patent Infringement lawsuit against Aegle Bios, Inc. A Final Consent Judgment was filed in the United States District Court in New Jersey on June 23, 2017.

On June 8, 2016, Sabinsa filed suit against Aegle for willful infringement of the Curcumin Patent No. 6,653,327. The ’327 Patent protects Sabinsa’s methods and formulations for Tetrahydrocurcuminoids (THCs).

The Final Consent Judgment stipulates that the ’327 Patent was valid, enforceable, and properly issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Sabinsa has patents related to THCs in the United States, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and other locations. In the United States, Sabinsa continues to litigate the amount owed for willful infringement of the ’327 patent by Olive Lifesciences Private Limited after obtaining final judgments against Chemill Inc. and Nachurel Ingredients LLC.

“As an pioneer in the industry, Sabinsa has researched and developed many innovative and successful products used by the nutritional supplement industry, but unfortunately that success has made us a target for IP theft,” said Sabinsa founder Dr. Muhammed Majeed. “Out of necessity, Sabinsa has earned a reputation for strong enforcement of our intellectual property rights, and will continue to pursue all available legal remedies to protect those rights when necessary.”
“We are very proud of our partnership with Sabinsa to make sure that its patents are enforced and respected in the industry, especially given the investment the company has made in creating and protecting its intellectual property rights,” added James H. Hulme, Sabinsa’s patent counsel. “Sabinsa can now claim a string of patent victories after this latest judgment,” Mr. Hulme said.

Probiotics are often linked with improved digestion, as they should be. But mounting science demonstrates that these healthy bacteria do a lot more. Some probiotic strains aid the body with protein absorption and even boost immunity. Promising research is also linking our gut health to mood.

Here, we look at a novel probiotic, GanedenBC³⁰, that has a well-established and growing body of research demonstrating its capabilities for improving health beyond digestion.

Immune Benefits

In addition to digestive health benefits, GanedenBC³⁰ provides immune system support. Given that the digestive and immune systems of the human body are closely linked — 70 percent of the immune system is in the intestines, it is no surprise that probiotics have been shown to have beneficial impact on immune functions. One study demonstrated that GanedenBC³⁰ enhanced T-cell response to bacterial and viral challenges while additional studies show that the strain increased the response of several key immune modulating cytokines—proteins that aid in immune response.

While many health professionals believe that probiotics can help people with specific health conditions, there has been controversy surrounding the benefits of probiotics in healthy people. This research supports the idea that probiotics can indeed benefit those who are healthy.

Protein Absorption Benefits

Another exciting research finding is that GanedenBC³⁰ helps promote protein utilization. Data from a recent study demonstrated that in just two weeks, combining one billion colony forming units (CFUs) of GanedenBC³⁰, with one serving of protein per day, increases the absorption of 23 important amino acids over the baseline compared to protein without the strain. These results are particularly important to food manufacturers that target the sports nutrition and active adult markets that feature protein as a key ingredient.

Make Multiple Health Claims

With research demonstrating that GanedenBC³⁰‘s health benefits go beyond digestion, formulating with it allows you to add the following verbiage to your product label:

• Probiotic
• Supports Immune Health
• Supports Digestive Health
• Supports Protein Utilization

The Versatile Probiotic

GanedenBC³⁰ has a unique structure that safeguards the cell’s genetic material from the heat and pressure of the manufacturing process. This allows it easily incorporate into products, overcome shelf-life challenges and withstand the acid and bile to which it’s exposed during digestive transit.

As research continues to reveal how the digestive system is vital for much more than processing food, the demand for probiotics will continue to grow. Research-backed GanedenBC³⁰ offers food and beverage manufactures a turn-key solution to boosting products with a probiotic that offers myriad health benefits.
