Despite growing awareness of the importance of dietary fibre, resistant starch intake across Europe remains low. Common food processing methods such as milling, heating and baking can significantly reduce resistant starch content, while current dietary guidelines focus on total fibre intake without specifically addressing resistant starch.¹

As interest in gut health, digestive wellbeing and metabolic function continues to grow, resistant starch is attracting increasing attention for its unique benefits. We have recently added to our portfolio. We have recently added Solnul® to our portfolio, a researched prebiotic resistant potato starch that offers an innovative way for R&D teams to address this nutritional gap while supporting microbiome health, gut barrier integrity and nutrient absorption, backed by a strong body of research.

As beauty-from-within continues to evolve, formulators are looking beyond traditional ingredients to create products with a strong point of differentiation. PureSea® Gold Standard seaweed offers a unique wholefood approach, helping brands develop beauty-focused formulations with the advantage of EFSA-approved skin maintenance claims, thanks to the natural iodine content.

Behind these visible beauty benefits is the thyroid, which plays an important role in cellular renewal and normal physiological function. When thyroid function is compromised, visible changes can appear in the skin, hair and nails. Research has linked low thyroid hormone levels with hair loss¹, dry skin² and brittle nails², highlighting the importance of nutritional support for thyroid balance in beauty-from-within formulations.

Seasonal challenges make many pet owners become more aware of their companions' mobility and joint comfort, particularly for aging. This creates an opportunity for pet nutrition brands to provide targeted support with ingredients backed by science. From Unigen®, the makers of human grade Univestin® and based on a similar joint health approach, Anivestin™ is a natural, researched plant-based composition derived from Scutellaria baicalensis and Acacia catechu. Together, these plant extracts are designed to work synergistically to help support joint comfort and mobility in companion animals¹.

What sets Anivestin™ apart is its unique combination of bioflavonoids, identified through the screening of more than 1,230 medicinal plants via Unigen’s Phytologix® library.

The gut-skin axis is an emerging area of microbiome research, highlighting the connection between gut health, skin composition, appearance and overall skin wellbeing. Innovative research on Pomella® Pomegranate Extract demonstrates how targeted microbiome modulation may help support skin barrier function and improve the appearance of ageing skin.¹

In a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled human study, 250mg/day Pomella® significantly reduced wrinkle severity while supporting favourable microbiome changes. Improvements in skin barrier function further demonstrated the ingredient's potential to support skin health through the gut-skin axis.¹ Standardised to 30% punicalagins, highly bioavailable pomegranate polyphenols, Pomella® is a clinically researched ingredient that provides key bioactive compounds and their gut-derived metabolites, urolithins.

Healthy mitochondrial function is essential for mental clarity, sustained energy release and everyday cognitive performance. Recent research demonstrates that Witholytin® Ashwagandha may help support brain health by influencing mitochondrial biogenesis and neuroenergetics in cortical neurons. The clinical study¹ shows that Witholytin® phytoactives interact with Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) signalling pathways, which are involved in neuronal growth, stress adaptation, metabolic regulation and healthy brain ageing.

These mechanisms may help enhance the production, distribution and utilisation of energy within the brain, supporting cognitive performance and resilience. The findings also indicate that Witholytin® Ashwagandha may promote the formation of new mitochondria.

Maintaining metabolic health is a lifelong priority for women, shaped by hormonal changes from puberty through to menopause and beyond. At the centre of this process is the thyroid, a key regulator of energy and metabolism. PureSea® Gold-standard seaweed offers a plant-based source of iodine, supporting normal thyroid function and helping to maintain metabolic balance throughout every stage of life^1,2.

According to science, thyroid acts as the body’s metabolic “control hub”, regulating how efficiently energy is produced and used through the hormones T3 and T4^3,4. In women, this function is continuously influenced by hormonal transitions through life stages⁵. When thyroid activity is suboptimal, even mildly, it can result in reduced energy levels, weight changes and impaired metabolic efficiency^6-9.

What does sustainable Omega-3 production look like in practice? Golden Omega®’s Sustainability Report Video brings the whole story to life, showing how responsible sourcing, operational efficiency and quality assurance all come together to help support premium Omega-3 concentrates through initiatives aimed at reducing environmental impacts across sourcing and manufacturing operations.

Key initiatives include ongoing sourcing from responsibly managed South Pacific fisheries, sourcing from fisheries certified and managed in accordance with recognised fishery standards, with the aim of supporting responsible fisheries management while maintaining quality, traceability and supply chain transparency.

New developments in 2025 included optimisation of crude oil utilisation to improve production efficiency, alongside initiatives focused on recycling, reducing operational emissions and improving resource efficiency. Significant progress was also achieved through ISO 27001:2022 certification.

Seasonal changes place increased demands on the immune system, particularly during rainy and colder months when exposure to common pathogens rises. Benicaros® is a precision prebiotic fibre derived from upcycled carrot pomace (a by-product of carrot processing), with research showing the ability to train the innate immune system to respond faster, smarter and stronger, and its capacity to specifically modulate the gut microbiota composition^1,2.

Rather than acting directly on pathogens, Benicaros® supports immune responsiveness by interacting with the gut.

Unlike conventional prebiotics that rely on individual microbiome composition, Benicaros® has been shown to deliver consistent immune benefits across different populations.
