Food Supplements

Increasing consumer awareness of preventive healthcare is driving up sales of over-the-counter mineral products. There is a growing trend to concentrate on health and wellness –rather than disease. The trends reflect key health concerns such as inflammatory disorders, menopause, heart health, and anti-aging formulations. Successful food supplements are clearly targeted to provide a specific health benefit.

To stay competitive in this growing market segment, it is imperative for companies to have the technical and marketing expertise to take minerals from the product design to final delivery stage. PURAC is a partner in developing new formulations that both taste good and deliver the effect claimed on the label, by providing highly bioavailable minerals from organic lactic acid and gluconic acid with their typically neutral taste profiles.

  • Powder supplements
