OraCMU, a probiotic ingredient developed by Oraticx, Inc. and distributed by Stratum Nutrition, has received approval from Health Canada, enabling its sale and distribution in the Canadian natural health products market.

The approval authorizes OraCMU powder for use as a product to support and maintain oral health, promote a healthy oral microbiome, and reduce halitosis by supporting a healthy oral microbiota.

“Health Canada’s approval marks a significant milestone for OraCMU and creates exciting new opportunities for our partners to bring innovative oral health solutions to Canadian consumers,” said Arun Nair, PhD, chief commercial officer at Stratum Nutrition. “As consumer interest in microbiome-focused wellness continues to accelerate, OraCMU provides brands with a clinically studied ingredient that promotes oral health by helping maintain a balanced oral microbiome.”

OraCMU features Weissela cibaria CMU, a strain developed specifically to support oral health by addressing underlying causes of bad breath. The approval strengthens OraCMU’s global regulatory position, the company reported, helping to meet evolving needs of consumers and brand partners worldwide.
