At its booth (hall 3.0, stand D40), the company will highlight opportunities for brands to target the gut-muscle axis with its cutting-edge Biotis Fermentis, created to support athletic performance and holistic health.
FrieslandCampina Ingredients will also share plant-based inspiration with its delicious Plantaris protein bar applications, as well as unveil a brand-new whey protein ingredient designed to step up medical nutrition innovation.
Biotis Fermentis for gut health goodness
Consumers worldwide are increasingly looking to improve their health by being more active; two-thirds of people say they now exercise at least three times a week on average.
At the same time, research demonstrates that intensive exercise and related dietary habits can cause gut discomfort — leading to negative effects on overall well-being and impacting sports performance.
At Fi Europe, FrieslandCampina Ingredients will showcase its game-changing Biotis Fermentis ingredient for sports nutrition. By fermenting protein, prebiotics and probiotics together, this first-of-its-kind solution boosts the properties of its individual ingredients, effectively targeting the gut-muscle axis.
Biotis Fermentis has been shown to deliver multiple health benefits, including improved gut health and muscle support, as well as perceived improvements to wider well-being, including mood and energy levels.
Plantaris: unlocking the full potential of plant-based proteins
At FrieslandCampina Ingredients’ stand, visitors will be able to taste the company’s latest plant protein bar applications, made with Plantaris pea or faba protein ingredients.
Providing a protein content of more than 15 g per serving, these concepts show how brands can leverage neutral-tasting ingredients to address the challenges associated with the taste, texture and shelf life of developing high-protein plant-based bars, delivering on consumers’ sensory expectations.
“We’re thrilled to be back at Fi Europe. It’s always a great chance to meet with customers new and current, as well as build valuable wider industry connections,” comments Vicky Davies, Global Marketing Director for Performance, Active & Medical Nutrition at FrieslandCampina Ingredients.
