CK Nutritional Ingredients, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and Hughson, CA-based Nut-trition, Inc. have entered a strategic partnership that covers the Canadian food, beverage, dietary supplement and natural health products market. Under the terms of the agreement, CK Nutritional Ingredients has been granted exclusive responsibility in Canada for sales, marketing and distribution of Nut-trition’s Almond Bran ingredient.
Using proprietary technology, Nut-trition has successfully converted dried almond skins—recovered from the almond blanching process—into a high-value food ingredient that can be incorporated into bakery products, nutrition bars, cereals, fermented dairy products, nutritional products and more. Almond bran is a natural prebiotic that provides a unique source of bioactive and bioavailable antioxidants. It is also an excellent source of dietary fiber, essential minerals and natural almond sterols, and contributes a distinctive flavor and color to food products.
