Enabling Innovation from Gnosis by Lesaffre
The MenaQ7® Matrix technology, well-known for its remarkable ability to shield the MK-7 molecule against the aggression of various minerals in supplement applications, holds other, innovative, benefits when formulating Vitamin K2 that are attractive in the realm of functional foods as well.
“A key takeaway, especially from industry formulators that attended the conference, is how the Matrix innovative technology allows for a stable K2 ingredient in challenging formulations, despite its minimal ingredient list, devoid of additives or coatings. These unique attributes distinguish the Matrix technology from other K2 protective methods and were met with a positive response from the audience,” shares Olav Gåserød.
The Gnosis team highlighted four popular food categories that are primed for vitamin K2 fortification to cater to an increasingly health-conscious consumer base: Fortified Milk Powder, Liquid Milk, Protein Bars, and Gummies,
The poster, complete with stability data spanning up to an impressive 20 months under both ambient and challenging conditions, offers formulators a valuable roadmap to seamlessly incorporate Vitamin K2 into their products.
