Vitfoods Europe

Vitfoods Europe 2023 – Preview GELITA translates collagen science into market opportunities GELITA, the official collagen sponsor of this year’s Vitafoods Europe, will show how its tailored gelatins and specific collagen peptides address three current trends and challenges in supplement and nutraceutical production. The collagen protein pioneer will reveal how its sciencebacked Bioactive Collagen Peptides (BCP ® ) can harness the healthy ageing opportunity, how CONFIXX ® next-generation gelatin can facilitate the development of on-trend fortified gummies and how GELITA EC ® enables one-step production of enteric capsules. Theatre presentations from subject experts will provide a forum for visitors to dive deeper into these topics. Oliver Wolf, Marketing EMEIA at GELITA, says: “Consumer trends such as healthy ageing and beauty from within offer exciting market opportunities for the supplement and nutraceutical industries. However, solid science has to be the backbone of any product development in these areas - without it, products will not ‘stand up’. As a scienceled, market-driven company, we are passionate about helping our customers to bridge the gap between collagen research and market potential by meeting the needs of technologists and marketers. We know how to unlock the properties of collagen and gelatin to deliver products with tangible benefits and high consumer appeal.” trend. Rather than offering a ‘blanket’ solution, GELITA’s specific collagen peptides are optimised to target key areas of age-related health: FORTIBONE ® stimulates synthesis of the bone collagen matrix; FORTIGEL ® supports mobility by promoting regeneration of joint cartilage tissues, and TENDOFORTE ® keeps ligaments and tendons healthy and flexible. For beauty from within concepts, VERISOL ® stimulates the fibroplasts to produce more collagen in the skin. CONFIXX ® : facilitating fortified gummy innovation Fortified gummies are another trend that will provide a talking point at Vitafoods - the number of supplements launched in this format rocketed by 81 % globally between 2020 and 2021. GELITA’s latest breakthrough in this space is CONFIXX ® - a fast-setting gelatin that can be used in gentle, starch-free gummy production. This solution opens up new opportunities to formulate with sensitive active ingredients whilst safeguarding the chewy, jelly, gummy texture that consumers love. Healthy ageing: targeted collagen peptides for joints, bones, muscles and skin Ageing populations are driving demand for solutions that can help consumers to stay healthy for longer. Supported by almost 20 published human studies, GELITA’s Bioactive Collagen Peptides (BCP ® ) can be a strong ally for manufacturers looking to tap into this GELITA EC ® : smarter soft gels GELITA will also show how GELITA EC ® can help supplement manufacturers optimise enteric fill release in soft capsules to improve product economics when working with probiotics and other sensitive fills. As well as enabling a cost effective single-step production process, GELITA EC ® gelatin negates the need to ‘overdose’ active ingredients to compensate for loss in the gastric passage - enteric soft gels manufactured with GELITA EC ® withstand the acidic milieu and enter the small intestine intact.

Vitafoods Europe 2023 – Preview – 10 May, 2.00 pm (New Ingredients Theatre): Martin Walter: Bioactive Collagen Peptides fuelling the healthy ageing category GELITA www.GELITA.com GELITA at Vitafoods Europe, booth I110 Lets celebrate nature’s power We will be present natural and effective plant-based ingredients (health and nutri-functional ingredients) for nutraceutical and nutrition markets. SULFODYNE ® - the only active and stabilised form of sulforaphane in the nutraceutical market SULFODYNE ® is titrated in 5 % of sulforaphane in its active and stable form. Sulforaphane is an isothiocyanate naturally present in cruciferous species such as broccoli. It is a metabolite obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of glucoraphanin by myrosinase. Numerous scientific publications demonstrate the benefits of the sulforaphane which is based on 3 mechanisms of action well known: – Antioxidant activity (Nrf2 expression activation) – Anti-inflammatory activity (NF-kB inhibition and Nrf2 activation) – Cellular protection SULFODYNE ® can play a part in different health benefits: Detox SUFODYNE ® can help to eliminate xenobiotics from the body thanks to its detoxifying properties: – Induction of the phase 2 enzymes involved in detoxification process – Reduction of intracellular ROS content – Enhances the removal of toxins – Reduces oxidative stressors – Increase cellular antioxydant defences Boddupalli et al.,2012; Houghton et al.,2015; Kubo et al.,2017 ; Munday et al., 2008 Immunity SULFODYNE ® can also play a role in both innate and adaptative immunity and in particularly for ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori, flu virus, allergies and asthma : – Enhances natural killer (NK) cell activity – Stimulates the humoral immune response – Modifies T cell – Enhancement of the antibody production – Increase of the phagocytic activity of macrophages Thejass & Kuttan, 2007, Suganuma et al., 2011 : Müller et al., 2016: Thejass & Kuttan, 2007 Joint health SULFODYNE ® can help to fight against 3 joint pains (osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout) by acting on joint inflammation and cartilage degradation – Reduction of inflammation – Reduction of cartilage and bone damage – Reduction of joint pains Moon et al., 2021 ; Rodrigues et al., 2018 ; Yang et al., 2018 Women’s health Women’s health is very large and encompasses a number of symptoms, time of life or diseases that have long been ignored by medical research like endometriosis, pre-menstrual syndrome, the perinatal period, the menopause, etc. Some of these conditions are linked by an uncontrolled inflammation process and the role of sulforaphane in the reduction of inflammation, notably through the activation of Nrf2 expression, is gaining interest in the management of some women health issues like endometriosis and perinatal period. SULFODYNE ® with 5 % of sulforaphane can help to fight against women health problems: – attenuation of endometriosis via the PI3K/Art signalling pathway – anti-inflammatory effect on sciatic endometriosis via suppression of COX2 and INOS and upregulation of Keap1 and Nrf2 – Activation of Nrf2 expression with consequent decreased expression of cytokines and COX-2 known to be part of the pathophysiology of endometriosis. – osteoporosis = stimulation of osteoblast activity and decreased bone resorption by osteoclasts.
