NATURAL BLEND COFEE

WHAT CONSISTS OF OUR COFEE?
•
•
•
•
•
Inulin Fiber
ABM (Agaricus Blazei Murill)
Trace Minerals
Coffee
Sugar
WHAT IS INULIN?
• Inulin and oligofructose, also called
fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), belongs to
the class of fructan carbohydrates.
• Other synonyms for those healthy food
ingredients are chicory root fiber and
chicory root extract. In this explanation
we refer all those alternatives to the word
inulin.
HEALTH BENEFITS
OF INULIN
• Inulin is an excellent soluble dietary fiber.
• Inulin promotes digestive health by
enriching the fiber content of food.
• It also has a prebiotic effect, stimulating
the production of beneficial bacteria in the
colon.
• It even boosts calcium absorption,
resulting in improved bone health.
BENEFITS OF INULIN:
DIGESTIVE HEALTH
• Inulin and oligofructose can be used to increase
the dietary fiber content of a wide variety of food
products. Dietary fibers are essential in our daily
food but our diets rarely contain enough of them.
• Inulin can be added to foods to increase the
dietary fiber content.
• Inulin and oligofructose also stimulate the growth
of beneficial bacteria in the large intestine, leading
to healthier colonic microbiota. This so-called
prebiotic effect improves the working of the
intestine and ultimately the consumer's well-being.
BENEFITS OF INULIN:
WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
• Inulin and oligofructose modulate the hormones that
affect satiety, making you feel fuller for longer.
• Frutafit® and Frutalose® are low caloric ingredients.
Thanks to this, and their positive effect on satiety, you
can develop products focusing on weight management.
• Inulin has a low glycemic response, it fits the modern
diet for diabetics as well.
BENEFITS OF INULIN:
BONE HEALTH
• Consuming inulin or oligofructose increases the
absorption of calcium and possibly of magnesium. This
is important in building stronger bones and maintaining
bone quality.
• Increased mineral absorption can lead to better bone
mineralization.
BENEFITS OF INULIN:
TASTE AND TEXTURE
• Inulin itself has a neutral, slightly sweet taste but it can
also work as a flavor enhancer.
• In fact there is a synergetic effect between Frutafit®
and Frutalose® and high-intensity sweeteners.
• Frutafit® and Frutalose® are excellent sugar substitutes
in most foods.
• A further benefit of inulin is its ability to improve the
texture and the creamy mouthfeel of low-fat yoghurt,
cake, spreads and fillings.
WHAT IS ABM
(Agaricus blazei Murrill)?
• Agaricus blazei Murrill is a medicinal mushroom,
a popular food that has low calorie content and
is mineral rich. It contains important fibers,
vitamins and amino acids.
• DO YOU KNOW? that Agaricus blazei Murrill
was first used as medicine by doctors in the
Byzantine Empire from the fourth to the fifteenth
century.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF
ABM (Agaricus blazei Murrill)
•
•
•
•
•
Aids Diabetics
Lowers Cholesterol
Stimulates the Immune System
Prevents Peptic Ulcers & Osteoporosis
Heals Digestive & Circulatory Ailments
These benefits are being studied in detail in Japan, China,
Taiwan, and Korea and there is more research in the
pipeline.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• Trace minerals are generally needed in quantities of only a
few milligrams (mg) or micrograms (mcg) per day.
• When studying the relationship of minerals to human health, it
becomes increasingly evident that keeping a balance level of
minerals in every organ, tissue and cell of the human body
may be a prominent key to maintaining a healthy existence.
• Although minerals comprise only a fraction of total body
weight, they are crucial for many body functions including
transporting oxygen, normalizing the nervous system and
simulating growth, maintenance and repair of tissues and
bones.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
These minerals and trace minerals can be of most benefit if they are in balance
with other elements they interact with
• Calcium: Essential for developing and maintaining
healthy bones and teeth.
• Chromium: Aids in glucose metabolism and helps
regulate blood sugar by potentiating insulin and serving
as a component of glucose tolerance factor.
• Colbalt: Promotes the formulation of red blood cells and
and serves as a component of the vitamin B-12.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• Copper: Essential to normal red blood cell formation and
connective tissue formation. Acts as a catalyst to store
and release iron to help form hemoglobin. Contributes to
central nervous system function.
• lodine: Needed by the thyroid hormone to support
metabolism.
• Iron: Necessary for red blood cell formation and
Required for transport of oxygen throughout the body.
Important for brain function.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• * Magnesium: Activates over 100 enzymes and helps
nerves and muscles function. Helps maintain the
integrity of cell membranes and stabilizes the cell
electrically Critical for proper heart function.
* Manganese: Key component of enzyme systems,
including oxygen-handling enzymes Supports brain
function and reproduction Required for blood sugar
regulation Part of bone structure.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• * Molybdenum: Contributes to normal growth and
development Key component in many enzyme systems
including enzymes involved in detoxification.
* Phosphorous: Works with calcium to develop and
maintain strong bones and teeth. Enhances use of other
nutrients Key role in cell membrane integrity and
intercellular communication Critical for proper energy
processing in the body
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• * Potassium: Regulates heartbeat, maintains fluid
balance and helps muscles contract.
* Selenium: Essential component of a key antioxidant
enzyme, necessary for normal growth and development
Role in detoxification of heavy metals. such as mercury.
Role in production of antibodies by the immune system.
Component of teeth.
IMPORTANCE OF TRACE MATERIALS
• * Sulfur: Needed for structure of most protein, including
muscles and hair. Critical role in liver detoxification.
Important functions in antioxidant nutrients and oxygen
handling Role in growth.
* Zinc: Essential part of more than 200 enzymes involved
in digestion, metabolism, reproduction and wound
healing Critical role in immune response Important
antioxidant.
