Dual and multiple action probiotic solutions at Vitafoods Asia

HONG KONG – Chr. Hansen will once again have their Asian team in place when the doors open to the Vitafoods Asia exhibition on September 5, the speciality ingredients firm said.

“In particular, we are looking forward to discussing the properties of our latest probiotic innovations with our Asian customers: Our Lactobacillus L. casei 431 plus vitamin C chewable tablet and the brand new Lactobacillus rhamnosus LGG plus Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS) stick powder,” said Chr. Hansen’s Charlotte Beyerholm, marketing director, Human Health & Nutrition Division.

Chr. Hansen’s extensive technology platform makes it possible to combine probiotics with other natural ingredients. “Our new probiotic chewable tablet combines Lactobacillus L. casei 431 and vitamin C and is an ideal ‘dual action’ combination for immune support,” Ms Beyerholm explained.

“Further, with the combination of the probiotic strain LGG and ORS, we have created a ‘triple action’ product for tackling diarrhea. Not only is the duration of diarrhea reduced, but the product also helps recovery from dehydration and supports to restore a healthy intestinal flora,” she said.

The three benefits are:

1. Shortens duration of diarrhea
2. Prevention of/recovery from dehydration

3. Support to restore the intestinal flora
Chr. Hansen will be hosting a probiotic seminar on September 6 where Charlotte Beyerholm and Sune Schmoelker, regional sales director, will talk about some of the most common misconceptions about probiotics.
