Indena attended Vitafoods Europe 2022 spotlighting four innovative nutraceutical ingredients for wellbeing
Each natural products offers help for some the most urgent and current health conditions related to today’s lifestyle, the company said, also highlighting sustainability, personalization and clinical evidence.
Anthocran Phytosome
Anthocran Phytosome is Indena’s cranberry extract, a new health-food ingredient based on Phytosome formulation proprietary technology, able to enhance and optimize the delivery of the extract where the effects are needed.
Anthocran Phytosome boasts a unique phytochemical characterization. In fact, it is standardized in proanthocyanidins (PACs: 6.0-9.0% UV-visible spectrophotometric contents - DMAC method) and contains the full polyphenols profile of natural cranberry, including flavonols, anthocyanins and phenolic acids.
Some recent studies have verified that the complex mixture of proanthocyanidins (PACs), flavonols and phenolic acids contained in Indena’s cranberry extract seems to level biofilm formation. The effectiveness and the safety of Indena’s cranberry extract, includes a pilot registry study which investigated the effects of oral supplementation of Anthocran Phytosome for the support of urinary tract health.
The clinical evidence shows that Indena’s cranberry extract is a valid supplementation for subjects wishing to keep their UT healthy, with a good tolerability profile.
Relissa (Melissa officinalis)
Relissa is a health-food ingredient based on the formulation of lemon balm extract from Melissa officinalis with phospholipids, to optimize dispersion in gastrointestinal fluids and biological performances.
More than 50 compounds have been identified in lemon balm plant (including volatiles), but the major active compound is considered to be rosmarinic acid, an hydroxycinnamic acid derivative shown to have multiple properties, among which are calming and anxiolytic effect. Indeed, lemon balm is traditionally known for its effectiveness against tenseness, restlessness and irritability.
Thanks to Melissa officinalis’ well known calming and mood-relaxing effect and to its effectiveness in inducing sleep and improving the sleep duration, Relissa, Indena’s Melissa phospholipids, is nowadays a natural support for stress.
Meriva Curcumin
Meriva, Indena’s curcumin Phytosome, continues to reveal new areas of efficacy for human wellbeing. In fact, new clinical evidence shows that Meriva is an effective oxidative stress modulator, also in the support of kidney detoxing and filtering functions.
Meriva is supported by over 35 clinical studies involving more than 2,000 subjects. Its efficacy is demonstrated in many different health conditions, in particular in the areas of cardiovascular, intestinal and ocular health, sports nutrition, joint health, healthy blood levels, supportive care and also renal aging.
Berbevis Berberine
Berberine is a quaternary ammonium salt (contained in species of the Berberis genus, among which the most important is Berberis Aristata DC) derived from isoquinoline alkaloid and it is supported by reliable scientific literature proving its health benefits in multifactorial conditions.
Indena’s Berbevis is a new and innovative Phytosome composition applied to Berberis aristata to face the issue of berberine’s poor bioavailability and to optimize the extract’s health benefits. Clinical evidence shows that Berbevis is a potent, natural health-food ingredient that might help blood sugar control in a plethora of multifactorial challenges.
