A Postbiotic with Unmatched Clinical Research

REGISTER NOW - TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2022; 11AM

The majority of the immune system is located in the gut and GI tract. In fact, millions of immune cells are located in the intestines.

Healthy gut nutrition that supports the immune system includes prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics.

Postbiotics are the third and final piece of the biotics that work through the gut to support health. However, not all postbiotics are created equal.

IMMUSE™ LC-Plasma is a patented heat-treated strain of Lactococcus lactis. It is clinically shown to activate the body’s natural defenses at the cellular level to provide immune support year-round. IMMUSE™ is the only postbiotic ingredient available to consumers that is shown to activate pDCs (plasmacytoid dendritic cells). Join this session to learn how IMMUSE™, an exciting new dietary and food ingredient, backed by 29 published studies can be the cornerstone of your new product development.

How K2 has Emerged as the Essential Nutrient for All Stages of Life

NOW AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND

Age-related wear impacts both heart and bone health, and when they are compromised, it is an implication of a vitamin deficiency: Vitamin K2. Protecting hearts and bones is an essential facet of aging healthily, but it's a foundation we must establish early. Simply adding a vitamin to one's daily routine has been clinically proven to do both.

Even more exciting: new research is linking this essential nutrient's mechanism of action to impacting other health areas beyond just bone and heart, including the brain, vision, general/respiratory, pain and inflammation, and more. This growing body of evidence strengthens the argument that Vitamin K2 could be one of the most crucial healthy aging nutrients on the market today.

What Will Win When We Go Back To The Gym?

NOW AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND
 

Consumers want more from active/sports nutrition products 

After more than a year away from the gym, consumers are different.
