24 Jan 2020 --- Arla Food Ingredients showcased its Smart Mama Nutrition line featuring the ingredient Lacprodan MFGM-10 at Fi Europe 2019 in Paris, France. The ingredient supplies phospholipids and gangliosides with the end goal of developing the brain or cognition of the child. The Denmark-based dairy ingredient supplier also featured an infant formula created to ease digestion through the addition of alpha-lactalbumin and milk protein hydrolosates. Products formulated with these special ingredients for children’s cognitive health target those “who want to see the maximum possibilities for their child to thrive in a competitive world,” says Anders Steen Jørgensen, Strategic Business Unit Director of Pediatrics. 

19 Dec 2017 --- With diabetes becoming more and more of a concern worldwide, nutritional solutions are needed to address it. “Both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are becoming almost an epidemic on a global level,” says Troels Laursen. “More than 400 million people worldwide are suffering from diabetes. But besides that, you also have a very large population that’s in a pre-diabetic state where their blood glucose levels are at an unhealthy level.” Arla Foods Ingredients offers its high-protein premium shot ingredient to serve a high amount of whey protein in a drink format. It has worked with Newcastle University on studies to support a serving of this amount of whey protein’s effects on controlling blood sugar levels.

01 Aug 2017 --- Crystal clear beverages are extremely appealing as a tasty and refreshing soft drink. Arla Foods Ingredients has developed a unique whey protein isolate which, when applied in drinks applications, can give a high protein content and yet allow the drink to be crystal clear. By using Lacprodan DI-9213 in a soft drink, customers will be able to produce a natural, healthy, sugar and fat free drink with added health claims for muscles and bones. Lacprodan DI-9213 also allows you not to compromise taste, although it is healthy. Lacprodan DI-9213 whey protein isolate can be applied in a crystal clear UHT beverage, with up to a 9% protein content. Troels Laursen of Arla Foods Ingredients explains: “We offer a crystal clear protein water which is clear, high in protein and free of carbs, fat and lactose."

26 Feb 2016 --- Arla Foods Ingredients has developed a solution for low calorie fresh dairy products that allows for the production of either a drinking yogurt with less than 20 calories or a stirred yogurt with 36 calories per 100g, while keeping a creamy and tasty mouthfeel. With the company’s solution for high satiety fresh dairy products, it is possible to make a stirred yogurt with 2% fiber and 5.8% protein and 47 calories, or a drinking yoghurt with 2% fiber and 4.4% protein and only 37 calories per 100g. Because of Nutrilac Lowcal’s water-binding capabilities and its clean taste, the proteins will enable producers to make creamy and healthy products while keeping the calorie content low.

06 Feb 2015 --- Meet today’s biggest consumer trends with one single product. Offer your customers the combination of a high-protein smoothie filled with the goodness of fresh fruit. Nutrilac is the solution that allows you to make delicious, Greek-style smoothies with a green profile in your existing production set-up.

26 Nov 2014 --- Endurance athletes consuming a combination of traditional sports drinks plus Lacprodan® HYDRO.365, Arla Foods Ingredients’ whey protein hydrolysate, perform at a higher level than athletes consuming sports drinks alone – according to a new study. The study involved 18 top-class runners from Team Denmark taking part in a one-week training camp. The athletes were training twice a day, every day (apart from on one rest morning) equating to 13 training sessions during the week. The results demonstrated that the athletes who consumed HYDRO.365 before and after training performed better in a final 4km run-test than the sports drink-only group, with a mean improvement of 17 seconds. The whey protein group also experienced less muscle damage compared with the sports drink-only group.
