NoPalm Ingredients’ Post

Sustainability is one of Italfeed's core values. That's why our portfolio includes uncommon, but very valuable, ingredients. One of them is quebracho (in powder), an extract rich in tannins and polyphenols which, among other properties, reduces the emission of methane (greenhouse gas) in ruminants. #feed #animalsnutrition #sustainability

As the world becomes more conscious of the importance of sustainability, companies are exploring innovative ways to reduce their carbon footprint while providing consumers with sustainable alternatives. One such area of focus is fermentation-based protein, which is gaining traction as a viable alternative to animal products. With technological advancements, producing protein through precision fermentation and biomass fermentation has become more efficient and cost-effective than ever before. Fermentation-based products can offer a taste and texture almost identical to traditional animal products while providing nutritional, health, and environmental benefits. From 1990 to 2021, costs have declined by a staggering seven orders of magnitude, and today, the cost lies at around USD 80/kg protein. As feed conversion rates improve, production cycles become faster, and supply chains become shorter, costs are projected to fall to USD 1/kg protein by 2038. In fact, the cost parity of fermentation-based milk substitutes is expected to be in 2027-2028. What do you think are some of the challenges that the fermentation-based protein industry will need to overcome to become a more widely adopted alternative to animal products? #Foodanza #sustainability #fermentationbasedprotein #alternativeprotein #carbonfootprint #precisionfermentation #biomassfermentation #sustainablefood #healthyeating #environmentallyfriendly #foodtech

At Geb Impact, we are committed to utilising the potential of power-packed microalgae to develop sustainable and nutritious ingredients that nourish humanity and protect our environment. Today, let's look at the impressive protein content of Euglena gracilis. As the global population is projected to reach ~10 billion by 2050, we recognize the urgency of meeting the global surge in protein demand. This challenge is heightened by the population and affluence boom in developing nations. Alternative protein sources are poised to play a pivotal role in addressing nutritional needs by offering affordable, scalable, and sustainable solutions. A proprietary (non-GMO) cultivation process allows us to produce Euglena gracilis with a protein content of up to 60% of its dry weight. That's comparable to, or higher than, many popular plant-based protein sources. What’s more, this rich protein in Euglena gracilis contains all the essential amino acids you need. Unlike animal-based proteins, Euglena gracilis requires significantly fewer natural resources (i.e. land, water, utilities) to produce. This represents a lower carbon footprint and a sustainable future for our planet. Geb Impact Technology is a B2B healthy ingredient supplier capable of providing solutions to businesses looking to upgrade and develop products for health-conscious consumers while contributing to the sustainability of our planet. 📸 The images below show our Euglena gracilis under 100X magnification. #microalgae #biotech #foodtech #altprotein #sustainability #food

Morning Knowledge Shot 👩🏫 The #oliveoil industry produces more than just healthy "gold liquid" —it's also a source of valuable by-products, such as olive pomace and olive mill wastewater (OMWW). These often overlooked materials contain a wealth of bioactive compounds with impressive #health benefits and potential applications. 🧪Key compounds (#phenoliccompounds) such as hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, tyrosol, and others are known for their: - Antioxidant Effects: Protecting cells from oxidative stress, reducing the risk of chronic diseases. - Cardioprotective Properties: Improving heart health by lowering blood pressure and preventing LDL cholesterol oxidation. - Anti-inflammatory Benefits: Managing inflammation and related conditions such as arthritis. - Anticancer Potential: Inhibiting tumor growth and promoting cancer cell apoptosis. - Antidiabetic Effects: Regulating blood glucose levels and improving insulin sensitivity. - Neuroprotective Benefits: Supporting brain health and potentially reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. - Antimicrobial Activity: Offering natural preservatives for food and protection against infections. 🌍To maximize these benefits and promote #sustainability, we can utilize green extraction technologies, such as Pressurized Liquid Extraction (PLE) and Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE). These methods are not only eco-friendly and efficient but also preserve the bioactivity of the compounds, ensuring minimal environmental impact. 🔎By revalorizing these by-products, we are embracing a circular economy model, which involves: - Waste reduction: Transforming what would be waste into valuable products, reducing the environmental burden of disposal. - Resource efficiency: Extracting high-value compounds from by-products maximizes the use of raw materials. - Sustainable production: Creating functional foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals in a way that is less dependent on synthetic or non-renewable resources. 🚀This approach adds economic value and aligns with global sustainability goals by reducing waste, conserving resources, and promoting environmentally friendly practices! 📚To discover more, read the full paper "Applications of by-products from the olive oil processing: Revalorization strategies based on target molecules and green extraction technologies" - Trends in Food Science & Technology journal - Elsevier https://lnkd.in/d6F5WVhh I talk about #innovation #sustainability #health #nutrition #foodscience #foodtech #foodchemistry #oliveoil
