Lesaffre Human Care to Introduce Their Newly Organic-Certified Nutritional Yeasts

20 Nov 2015 --- Lesaffre Human Care, supplier of quality ingredients from yeast and bacteria fermentation for the global human care markets, will be presenting the newest addition to their portfolio of nutritional yeasts at the upcoming FIE in Paris: Lynside NUTRI ORGANIC. In fact, the company recently obtained the « ORGANIC FR-BIO-1 » certification from Ecocert1 for this product.

Lynside NUTRI is a range of primary-grown inactive dried yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) known as ‘nutritional yeasts’ and manufactured in Western Europe. These traditional superfoods are an excellent source of non-animal protein containing essential and non-essential amino acids, perfect for vegan-friendly diets. They are also a reliable source of B vitamins, dietary fibers and minerals (K, P, Zn…) making it a great nutritional ‘partner’ not only for everyone who has the desire to lead a healthy lifestyle, but also for a variety of consumer groups with special needs. With a protein content close to 50% complemented by the B vitamin complex, Lynside NUTRI is a great fit both for the elderly and athletes. It can also be used as a source of naturally-occuring vitamin B9 by pregnant women; while the presence of vitamins B2, B3 and B8 as well as zinc makes it a great ingredient for nails, hair and skin care.

As consumer interest for organic products continues to gather momentum, manufacturers can now benefit from all these great features rounded up in a versatile organic-certified product. Lynside NUTRI ORGANIC is available to them in two different forms:

- Flakes, which may be directly packaged in boxes, to be sprinkled on foods or to be used for cooking.
- Powder, which may be used alone or in combination with other ingredients for applications such as functional foods and dietary supplements (e.g.: capsules or tablets).

Consumers’ growing interest in organic products has made organic claims thrive within the vitamin & mineral supplements market. “We see great opportunities in the market for organic ingredients and are very pleased to introduce this organic-certified variation of our conventional nutritional yeast” said Sandrine Cuisenier. “The benefits of nutritional yeasts are well-known and they have been used by consumers for decades, but Lynside NUTRI ORGANIC can be considered as a new organic superfood”, she adds.
