Ganeden and Sensus America, part of Netherland-based inulin manufacturer Sensus, have formed a strategic alliance. Through the alliance, the companies created Frutalose PRO, a liquid prebiotic, chicory root fiber syrup blended with the highly stable probiotic, GanedenBC30 (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086). Frutalose PRO was created by combining chicory root based Frutalose SF75, a prebiotic liquid inulin fiber, with the probiotic GanedenBC30. The liquid prebiotic allows food and beverage manufacturers to design products that provide a multitude of health benefits. This highly stable ingredient combination is a low-calorie and low-sugar, clinically-proven symbiotic, designed to maximize health benefits to the consumer, particularly in the areas of protein utilization and digestive health, the companies say.
