Kemin Industries, a global leader in sustainable ingredient innovation, is set to return to SupplySide West (SSW) in Las Vegas on October 30 and 31. As a company dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for 80 percent of the world through its products, Kemin will showcase cutting-edge solutions across key health areas, including digestive adaptogens, digestive aging™, women’s health, and children’s health.
Attendees can visit Kemin Human Nutrition & Health at booth #5345 to explore their latest advancements, including FloraGLO® Lutein and OPTISHARP™ Natural Zeaxanthin, recently spotlighted in the first-ever NIH-funded clinical trial for maternal and infant health:“Lutein and Zeaxanthin in Pregnancy (L-ZIP),” published in the September 2024 issue of Ophthalmology Science. The findings revealed a significant increase in carotenoid levels for both mothers and their newborns, suggesting potential long-term benefits for visual health and cognitive development in addition to its safety and effectiveness.
“The Kemin team is thrilled to be presenting our latest innovative solutions and results at SupplySide West,” said Josh Swalla, Global Marketing Director, Kemin Human Nutrition & Health. “In addition to the newly published study on the use of FloraGLO® Lutein and OPTISHARP™ Natural Zeaxanthin in prenatal supplements, we’re excited to share the topline results from the FloraGLO LuTEEN study, which is the first of its kind to look at the effects of five milligrams of lutein in pre-teens and teens—featuring a sugar-free gummy format.This research not only highlights the importance of lutein for this age group, but it also opens the door to lutein being recognized as an essential vitamin,” he added.
