With more than 25% of adults, and more than 17% of children aged 6-19 being obese in the US (and not just overweight), launching healthy products is now more than ever a call of duty for the food industry. As evidenced by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention*, obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer, and type 2 diabetes.
Following numerous positive studies, fibers have gained recent acknowledgement by specialists on their ability to limit food intake and protect from cardiovascular diseases. Most fibers however are not soluble enough, let alone invisible, for use in liquid products such as drinks, smoothies, dairies, dressings… Fibraclear® is a 100% soluble fiber that has no viscosity up to 10% concentration, that gives no off taste, smell or color to your formulation while bringing more than 85% of fibers! Fibraclear® is also stable in a wide range of temperature and pH. This ingredient presents a unique opportunity for beverage and dairy makers to improve their formulation, decrease the glycemic index of their products and help reduce obesity and related diseases prevalence.
Fibraclear®, manufactured by Tournay Biotechnologies, available exclusively through AIC in North America and clearly…a better solution.
