SternVitamin, a global supplier of micronutrient premixes, will showcase two newly developed premix solutions at Gulfood Manufacturing 2024 from November 5 to 7 in Dubai (Hall 7, Booth D7-4). These products address the growing demand for functional foods and dietary supplements supporting beauty and mental well-being: The Instant Supplement with the premix SternGlow and refreshing yuzu flavor promotes radiant skin, shiny hair and strong nails, while the matcha wafer with SternPowerUp boosts mental energy and supports cognitive performance.
Holistic beauty in vogue: micronutrients for skin, hair and nails
“Consumers are increasingly aware of how diet impacts their physical appearance, and a holistic approach to beauty for both women and men in all age groups is becoming ever more important,” explains Burcu Yusra Vatansever, Technical Business Development Manager at SternVitamin. “Vitamin and mineral supplements are therefore in greater demand, with dietary supplement powders establishing themselves as a popular alternative to capsules and gummies.”
Manufacturers of food, beverages and dietary supplements can capitalize on this trend with SternVitamin’s ‘Beauty-from-Within’ premixes, which deliver all the essential vitamins and minerals required to support beauty claims. SternGlow combines vitamins C and E with pantothenic acid, biotin and copper to support skin, hair and nails, along with horsetail extract and coenzyme Q10.
Matcha wafer with SternPowerUp: Snack for mental energy
Beyond the beauty segment, SternVitamin is targeting other high-growth markets. The second showcased product is a matcha wafer with SternPowerUp, specially formulated to boost mental energy and cognitive performance. Feauturing a blend of B vitamins, vitamin C, zinc and matcha powder, this snack supports brain function and reduces fatigue.
