FORMULATE FLAVORFUL PRODUCTS
Consumers are becoming more discriminating and educated
about foods and beverages. While taste and health remain big
priorities, their purchase choices can also be influenced by the
presence of branded ingredients on the label. Bioenergy Life
Science (BLS) helps customers formulate flavorful products
with its science-backed, branded ingredients.
During IFT 2023, BLS experts were on hand to explain how easy
it is to formulate with its game-changing ingredients. BLS celebrated
the launch of its first-ever functional sweetener solution,
powered by Bioenergy Ribose, with an IFT taste test challenge.
" Saying that our ingredients do more and they do it better is
more than just a catch phrase. Our ingredients are extensively
researched. Plus, our in-house processes guarantee quality and
purity, " explains BLS director of marketing Penny Portner. " Our
competitive advantages include Non-GMO Project Verified, keto
friendly, slightly sweet flavor profile, browning/caramelizing effect,
negative glycemic value, clean label and sustainability. "
BLS featured its flagship ingredient, Bioenergy Ribose, which
does more than enable beverage formulas to deliver noticeable,
sustained energy by replenishing cellular ATP. It's the secret behind
plant-based proteins' mouthwatering flavor and aroma.
RiaGev is a BLS rising star in the healthy aging category. It
is the first and only commercially available patented and specialized
formulation with Bioenergy Ribose and nicotinamide.
Functional foods and beverages formulated with RiaGev and
new RiaGev-WS (water soluble) will benefit cognition and concentration,
plus simultaneous increases in NAD, ATP and glutathione
production.
MannoHealth is BLS's answer to the industry's growing demand
for the highest purity D-Mannose. It is backed by the com06

pany's more than 30 years of industry experience developing
scientifically based, all-natural, non-GMO ingredients that are of
the highest quality and are consistent from batch to batch.
" BLS does more than supply trusted, branded ingredients. We
have the skills and talent to partner with you on formulation support,
product concepts, quality and regulatory, and support your
marketing and promotions, " Portner says.
Well-known functional chef Gerard Viverito reimagined even
more classics with a new menu for 2023 IFT attendees in his test
kitchen. Each recipe is reimagined to have a short ingredient list,
healthy for you and clean label.
Taco-flavored, plant-based meat nacho scoops: Bioenergy
Ribose is the secret behind plant-based proteins' mouthwatering
flavor and aroma. Add your favorite toppings.
Fruit gummies, powered by MannoHealth, with no-sugar
added: With a softer texture than traditional gummies, this tasty
version takes advantage of the natural sweetness of non-GMO
MannoHealth (D-mannose). Imagine all that goodness in a functional
treat that supports overall digestive health, urinary tract
health, detoxification, and immune health.
Soft-baked lemon bars: These on-the-go snacks with a light,
refreshing lemon flavor are made with NAD-boosting RiaGev for
healthy aging benefits, including cognitive and mitochondrial
health.
BLS adds more healthy function to foods and beverages.
" BLS is re-imagining the possibilities for a wide range of applications
especially plant-based foods, snacks, beverages and meal
replacements, " concludes Portner. " You can trust BLS to partner
with you on everything from ingredient selection and formulation
to creative solutions and strategic marketing support. "
