Proven novel ingredients for functional foods Overview In response, Provexis developed Fruitflow®, a patented bioactive extract of tomato that inhibits platelet aggregation. Within just three hours of consumption a noticeable effect is observable, reducing the risk of thrombosis which underpins heart attack and stroke. This gives Fruitflow® elite status as one of only a few products available to carry a scientifically substantiated health claim: ‘Helps maintain a healthy heart and benefit circulation.’ In an increasingly health-conscious society looking for products which are both effective and natural in origin, Provexis aims to develop further novel, patented active food components for integration into innovative functional foods and beverages. These development programmes are typically undertaken in partnership with leading academic research establishments and always aim to develop products that have a health benefit which is both clearly defined and scientifically proven. Market opportunity In addition, a number of further products are in the pipeline. These include a plantain extract which will underpin a novel medical food for the dietary management of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Progress Website: www.provexis.com
