Taking center stage
Consumer interest in gut health is driving new product innovation.

O
ne byproduct of the COVID-19 pandemic was
the shift in consumer interest in digestive health.
Science shows that abundant, flourishing good gut
bacteria promote a healthy immune system by staving off
foodborne pathogens and viruses. As a result, foods designed
to promote digestive health continue to be trending in new
product development.
" World events of the past several years have motivated
consumers to become more acutely aware of their health
and wellness, driving them to proactively seek out foods and
beverages that may help support their holistic wellness goals, "
said Vaughn DuBow, global director of marketing-microbiome
solutions, ADM, Chicago. " Consumers are connecting the dots
between the health of their gut and their overall health and
wellness. With that, interest in gut microbiome-supporting
solutions, including prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics, are
on the rise. "

distinct physio-chemical properties that help regulate an
array of bodily functions. These healthy gut bacteria are often
supplemented through the consumption of probiotics. These
are live microorganisms, most often lactic acid bacteria,
which when consumed in adequate amounts, help create a
better-balanced microbiome.
Probiotics are identified at three levels: genus, species
and strain, according to Becca Henrickson, marketing
manager-food cultures and enzymes, Chr. Hansen Inc.,
Milwaukee, Wis. Studies show that health benefits are strain
specific. This means that not all Bifidobacteria (genus)
nor all Bifidobacteria animalis (species) are probiotic.
Specific strains with clear identity and supported by clinical
documentation are true probiotics.
Chr. Hansen offers a range of probiotics, including two
of the world's most documented strains. Lactobacillus
rhamnosus LGG has proven benefits across all ages and
numerous health areas, including gastrointestinal, immune
and oral health. Bifidobacterium BB-12 is associated with
immune system and digestive support in children and adults.
In addition, the company offers probiotics specific for
