Prunes are a natural solution for gut health due to their high fiber content, aiding digestion and promoting regular bowel movements. They also contain sorbitol, which helps alleviate constipation and maintain a healthy digestive system. Results from our internal clinical study indicate that a dose of 15ml of our prune juice concentrate is able to support normal bowel function, in turn improving consumer's quality of life. Are you exploring how you can curate a recipe that meet this dosage? Consider combining prunes with yogurt, a top choice for digestive health. Contact your Symrise representative to help you create a great tasting prune yogurt that fulfils the recommended daily serving of sorbitol based on our clinical study! #livehealthy #prunes #yogurt #sorbitol

Healthier food and beverage products often come along with unpleasant off-notes impacting the overall flavor profile. This makes it crucial to mask these off-notes to create solutions that consumers love. Vanilla, a widely beloved flavor, is strongly associated with comfort, familiarity and childhood memories. Based on this global consumer acceptance and our taste balancing toolbox, vanilla can serve as a natural masker for health & nutrition applications. Vanilla is also an integral part of the Symrise DNA. Our vanilla story started in 1874, when one of the founders of Symrise gained a patent for synthesizing vanillin from coniferin found in larch trees around Holzminden, Germany. Over a century later, Symrise remains a pioneer in the vanilla industry – becoming the first flavor house present in Madagascar with its own facilities designed with one thing in mind: to bring you closest to the source. This year marks not only the 150th anniversary of Symrise’s historic patent, but also of the entire fragrance and flavoring industry. We champion this important year as we celebrate our commitment to our heritage, our innovation – and a drive to remain the best partner for all your vanilla solutions. Watch this video to find out how Symrise supports manufacturers in creating tailored vanilla flavors, providing improved mouthfeel, smell and taste for a unique consumer experience. #vanilla #vanillin #anniversary #symrise

In our previous post, we talked about how yogurt is top-of-mind when it comes to addressing consumers' digestive health concerns. Now, ever wondered which gut-friendly foods reign supreme? We polled colleagues on "popular" constipation fighters – and prunes were the clear winner, chosen by over half!  This isn't just random; prunes are a true gut health champion.   Why prunes? They're packed with two important components that aid digestion: 1. Sorbitol, a natural laxative that draws water into the intestine, increasing stool volume and aiding digestion. 2. Dietary fiber, promoting regular bowel movements.   Comment if you will pick the same and stay tuned as we'll be exploring how the food & beverage industry can leverage the power of prunes for innovative gut-supporting products!     #livehealthy #guthealth #prunes #innovation
