AB-BIOTICS highlight hidden beauty of microorganisms for developing targeted probiotic health solutions at Vitafoods 2022

Stand J110, Vitafoods Europe, Palexpo Geneva Switzerland, 2-13 May 2022

Kaneka’s probiotics and microbiome science affiliate, AB-BIOTICS, is to share its latest scientific findings in natural probiotic strains to support the creation of targeted probiotic solutions that meet specific therapeutic needs and maintain human health.

The first in a series of innovative and clinically tested solutions to be showcased on stand includes the AB-BIOTICS’ AB21® four-strain probiotic formula – a novel probiotic for viral respiratory infections. Following a high-quality clinical trial published in top journal Gut Microbes, AB21 was shown to exhibit significant positive effects in COVID-19 outpatients, including reduction of viral load, duration of symptoms, and rate of remission.

Next to take the limelight is the postbiotic LipiGO® –a completely natural ingredient extracted from specific strains previously used in the brewing process. Approved as a medical device for weight management, LipiGO acts in the gut, binds selectively to saturated fats, reducing their absorption and ensuring a safe weight loss. The three following claims are approved when marketing LipiGO in the European Union: treatment of Type I obesity and overweight, reduction of the rebound effect after a diet, and reduction in the absorption of calories from dietary fat.

Similarly showcased on stand will be i3.1 – a natural solution for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is set to make waves in digestive health. This anti-pathogenic 3-strain probiotic mix interacts with the pathogen S. sanguinis and works to improve intestinal permeability, reduce inflammation and support dysbiosis correction. i3.1 is the only probiotic with clinically proven beneficial effects on visceral hypersensitivity, indicated by the World Gastroenterology Organisation in its Guidelines of Probiotics and Prebiotics.

Throughout the show, the AB-BIOTICS’ team of experts will be available on stand to discuss development opportunities that their world-class patented strains can provide in therapeutic areas that include skin, cognitive, immune, cardiometabolic and pediatric health.
