Cellavent has launched a new fermented turmeric ingredient that is formulated for a range of health benefits and organoleptic properties. Fermentlife Turmeric provides the antioxidant properties of curcuminoids, along with a full matrix of other bioactive ingredients like postbiotics and paraprobiotics, thanks to its controlled fermentation process.
The result is a new kind of turmeric ingredient with a range of benefits for gut health, and improved bioavailability, taste, smell, and solubility. Available globally, the ingredient is certified organic in the EU and has applications in both nutraceuticals and food.
Fermentlife turmeric is created with three certified Lactobacillus strains, which produce numerous metabolites during the fermentation process. It compliments turmeric’s mechanism of action with postbiotics and paraprobiotics (probiotics that confer a benefit despite being deactivated), and these strains complement the turmeric with unique gut health benefits and by improving its bioactivity. It also contains a range of other bioactive ingredients, including essential oils, saponins, and peptides.
The launch of this ingredient represents the company’s first fermented botanical. The company’s new Fermentlife business unit will combine traditional fermentation methods with other technology.
In order to create the new range, Cellavent developed a large-scale, highly-controlled fermentation process, with the potential to be reproduced for custom developments for the company’s customers.
“When we set out to create Fermentlife, our goal wasn’t just to increase bioavailability or curcuminoid content, but to offer the full spectrum of turmeric’s unique bioactive profile,” said Marcus Haag, CEO of Cellavent. “We knew that fermentation was the key to unlocking that potential, but we also knew that getting the process right was crucial. Over the course of two years, we’ve developed a highly controlled fermentation system. This is just the beginning, because we now have technology in place that will allow us to create new and unique fermented products for a healthier world. And because our capabilities are reproducible and scalable, our customers will have opportunities to do the same.”
