A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analyses of 32 randomised controlled trials has demonstrated statistically significant reductions in body weight and other anthropometric measures following chicory root fibre supplementation. The research, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, provides robust evidence for the role of chicory-derived inulin and oligofructose in weight management applications.
Eight innovative food technology startups across Europe have secured €55,000 in prize funding from EIT Food for successfully commercialising solutions in sustainable agriculture, alternative proteins and food waste reduction. The winners, announced in the 2024 Marketed Innovation Prize, represent breakthrough technologies including AI-powered farming systems and seaweed-based fish alternatives.
StePacPPC’s modified atmosphere/modified humidity (MA/MH) packaging solutions are demonstrating significant impact in reducing food waste across US foodservice operations through enhanced shelf-life extension and moisture control capabilities. The Israeli food packaging developer has partnered with Windham Packaging Ltd. Inc. to address the pressing challenge of food waste in the foodservice sector, which accounts for approximately […]
Brewing technology specialist Steinecker has enhanced its Poseidon recirculation unit with integrated aeration capabilities, enabling brewers to produce non-alcoholic beer using crabtree-negative yeasts. The system maintains precise oxygen levels during fermentation, resulting in full-flavoured 0.0% ABV beer within two days.
Palm oil processors can now significantly reduce their environmental impact whilst recovering valuable by-products through a new effluent treatment system developed by Alfa Laval. The POMEVap system employs advanced evaporation technology to transform palm oil mill effluent (POME) into reusable components, offering a more sustainable alternative to traditional treatment methods.
A new persimmon extract (Diospyros kaki L.f.) has demonstrated significant effects on body composition and fat mass reduction in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The ingredient, called perFix, was developed by Spanish botanical extract manufacturer Euromed using their Pure-Hydro Process water-based extraction technology.
Alfa Laval has introduced a new technology that significantly reduces biofilm formation in dairy pasteurization equipment, enabling processors to extend cleaning intervals while reducing water, chemical and energy consumption. The Extend system, which can be retrofitted to existing heat exchangers, uses low-voltage electrical current to inhibit bacterial growth on equipment surfaces.
