Cargill Health & Food Technologies (H&FT) has launched a new soy isoflavone ingredient developed specifically for the dietary supplement industry.
AdvantaSoy Compress can be customised and made in concentrations of up to 50 per cent, claims the company.
"AdvantaSoy Compress is designed to better serve the dietary supplement industry," said Lee Knudson, product manager for Cargill Health & Food Technologies. "Our product is produced using the same proprietary technology that made AdvantaSoy Clear a success. AdvantaSoy Compress is a premium soy isoflavone source available in variable concentrations," he added.
The demand for natural women's health products has increased dramatically in recent years. Preliminary data suggests that isoflavones may benefit health by relieving some menopausal symptoms and maintaining bone health.
"There is burgeoning research underway investigating the effect of various isoflavones on maintaining bone mass," said Dr D Lee Alekel, associate professor of nutrition at Iowa State University. "With the findings from each new study we move a step closer to understanding the potential of isoflavones in health and disease prevention," he added.
Cargill Health & Food Technologies, a business unit of agri-food group Cargill, is a part of Cargill's Food System Design initiative in which Cargill businesses work with customers to produce ingredient solutions for nutritious, convenient and appetising consumer products.
