New Podcast Episode: Cyclodextrins in Food and Nutraceuticals

news, education, ,

From improving bioavailability to enhancing stability and masking off-flavors, cyclodextrins are revolutionizing the way we formulate food supplements and functional ingredients.

In this episode, we break down the science into practical insights and explore how these ring-shaped sugar molecules are making a real impact in health and nutrition.

Tune in now and discover why cyclodextrins might be your next formulation game-changer!

Low-bitterness soluble composition capable of quickly and efficiently dispelling effects of alcohol

Today's cyclodextrin,

Today’s cyclodextrin is not a huge innovation, but a smart application and sometimes these are much bigger hits.

This is a Low-bitterness soluble composition capable of quickly and efficiently dispelling effects of alcohol, dispelling effects of alcohol, protecting liver or preventing drunkenness.

Technically, its dihydromyricetin is complexed in a cyclodextrin combined with some phospholipids.

Has anyone tried such a complex to see if it works?

I can imagine several uses, such as
– high in sobering efficiency
– quick in effect
– hangover alleviation
– liver protection or
– drunkenness prevention

Bacteroides uniformis and its preferred substrate, α-cyclodextrin, enhance endurance exercise performance in mice and human males

Today's cyclodextrin,

I have never eaten CDs to boost my physical health yet apparently, I should. Here is why: according to this study performed in mice and humans, Bacteroides uniformis and its preferred substrate, α-cyclodextrin supplementation improved human endurance exercise performance. Moreover, B. uniformis administration in mice increased swimming time to exhaustion, cecal short-chain fatty acid concentrations, and the gene expression of enzymes associated with gluconeogenesis in the liver while decreasing hepatic glycogen content. These findings indicate that B. uniformis enhances endurance exercise performance, which may be mediated by facilitating hepatic endogenous glucose production.
