Gut health solutions

At its own booth, dsm-firmenich will also show its additional gut health solution: Humiome Post LB. This is a postbiotic solution composed of a combination of two proprietary bacterial strains together with their fermented culture medium and active metabolites.

The company asserts that Humiome Post LB is based on over a century of investigation and is backed by 40-plus scientific studies.

Sustainable omega-3

The R&D giant will also showcase its expanded life’sOmega and life’sDHA plant-based omega-3 portfolio. This range includes products with omega-3 derived from algae — a sustainable alternative to fish oil. 

The new additions to the portfolio include life’sOmega O1030DS, life’sOmega Ultra and life’sOmega O3020DS.

The company will also feature a new high potency DHA, life’sDHA B54-O100, which it touts as “the most potent and cost-effective algal DHA oil” promising an improved  sensory performance for convenient formats such as gummies, chewables and “candyceuticals.”

Also, according to dsm-firmenich, life’sOmega is the first and only commercially available plant-based omega-3 to deliver the benefits of EPA and DHA fatty acids in a single, quality source.

With its algal-based life’sDHA and life’sOmega lipids, dsm-firmenich targets maternal brand owners. The company states that the products part of this range offer a variety of high-potency DHA levels that provide essential support for early life development and for a healthy pregnancy. 

The company points to “an extensive body of evidence” showing how omega-3 supplementation during pregnancy can reduce the risk of preterm and early preterm birth.

The end-to-end partner offers premix solutions with “consumer-inspired concepts,” solid formulation expertise, broad fortification capabilities across multiple market segments and more.
