As one of the largest dairy ingredients producers and global supplier Lactalis Ingredients will be exhibiting at the Fi Europe in Paris from 6 to 8 December. We will be pleased to unveil our new
product concepts using our protein ingredients: Laktein and Pronativ® ranges. Indeed, this year we propose a tasting bar so that visitors can taste our product concepts: a high protein pudding, a high protein ice cream and a high protein-clear beverage. Discover more on our products in this following press release.
Using Pronativ® to stimulate muscle recovery in a clear protein water.
In recent years, a wide range of protein products has been developed in this market for healthy hydration products. Fortified water is a healthy hydration beverage that is growing in popularity. In
order to follow this trend and to answer people’s needs, Lactalis Ingredients is unveiling its new product concept: a clear protein-water. This beverage is made with native protein: Pronativ® – Native Whey Protein.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS:
Protein content: 17 g per 473 ml portion (3.6 %)
Balanced ratio of protein, carbs and electrolytes
Stimulates post-workout recovery within 30 minutes
Simple ingredients, nothing extra
Refreshing, water-based beverage
Can be stored chilled or at ambient temperature
Made with high quality protein, Pronativ® – Native Whey Protein
o Rich in branched chain amino acids especially Leucine
o High digestibility
o Neutral taste
o Clear in acidic beverage
This ready-to-drink beverage is declinable with the peach/mango flavour or blood orange flavour. These beverages are adapted for active and sports nutrition ranges, and diet nutrition.
The daily intake recommended for an adult between the age of 50 and 65 is 0.8g/kg/day. With age this requirement increases, and beyond 65 is from 1 to 1.2g/kg/day or more. Moreover, for adults
who have a regular physical activity a higher intake of protein is required, especially after effort, where it is needed to optimize recovery and improve muscle synthesis.
These protein drinks developed by Lactalis Ingredients contain native whey proteins. Due to their particular structure, whey proteins are quickly digested, allowing a massive leucine flood into the
bloodstream, which sends a signal to the muscle and stimulates the synthesis of muscle proteins.
Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein in clean label high-protein pudding to diversify the adult nutrition offer
The adult nutrition markets are dynamic, as protein products continue to appeal to consumers. Dairy proteins are known to favor muscle synthesis, recovery and weight management and are widely used in nutritional, food and beverage applications. They are useful in several areas of adult nutrition such as active nutrition and healthy aging.
Lactalis Ingredients has developed a caramel pudding enriched with Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein isolate, with a simple list of ingredients in order to meet the clean label trend. This product introduces new opportunities for innovation in adult nutrition.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS:
14% protein
Clean label
Declinable flavours
Smooth texture
Convenient format
Made with a high quality protein,
Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein
– Rich in branched-chain amino acids
– Slowly assimilated protein
– Low viscosity
– Neutral taste
The objective of this product concept is to provide a healthy, nutritional and natural solution. Thanks to micellar casein, we obtained a high protein product (40% more than puddings on the market), with a very high BCAA content, a short labelling (only 6 ingredients compared to at least 10 in the products found on the market) and free of additives. The creamy texture is obtained with Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein and a native starch. Together, they naturally thicken the recipe during the cooking stage.
A high protein ice cream to maintain active lifestyle, for young and elderly
Our application team has developed a vanilla ice cream protein bar dipped in high protein dark chocolate. It is prepared from Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein and from Laktein WPI to reach 17.7g of proteins /100g. This dessert is a healthy indulgent snack bringing nutritional benefits of dairy protein in a convenient format. It combines fast and slow-digestion proteins that might help to
maintain a good muscle protein balance. Whey proteins through their fast-digestion increase muscle protein synthesis whereas micellar caseins by their slow digestion helps to prevent muscle protein loss.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS:
17.7% protein
Smooth and creamy texture of the ice cream
Made with high quality protein, Pronativ® – Native Micellar Casein isolate
o Rich in essential amino acids
o Slowly assimilated protein
o Neutral taste
o Heat stable: no gelling of the high protein ice cream mix during pasteurisation
o Reduction of the cold mouthfeel
And with Laktein WPI
o Excellent source of protein
o Easy to use and incorporate in chocolate, does not affect the mixing, conching and tempering steps
This ice cream bar is fully appropriate as a snack or at the end of a meal especially in the evening to slow down muscle protein deterioration during fasting periods.
