“As consumer awareness of glucose management and GLP-1[1] increases, we are excited to present Nextida GC with new clinical data in Barcelona,” said Florencia Moreno Torres, Global Business Development Manager for Health & Nutrition at Rousselot. “Nextida GC offers a unique approach in the nutraceutical space to help brands address the evolving metabolic health market, the natural way.”

Nextida GC, the first ingredient from Rousselot’s Nextida platform of specific collagen compositions, is designed to maintain balanced post-meals glucose levels in healthy individuals by leveraging the body’s natural GLP-1 response.[2] In pre-clinical and clinical studies,[3] Nextida GC demonstrated its ability to enhance the body’s glucose regulation mechanism. Glucose control is important to avoid destabilizing sugar crashes and potentially their associated consequences such as cravings, overeating, and fatigue.[4]

Visitors at the Rousselot booth will have an opportunity to taste Nextida GC application prototypes and gather first-hand insights in two expert-led sessions at the New Ingredients Theatre (3G266): 

  • GLP-1 Nutrition, the key upcoming category in the nutraceutical world – by Florencia Moreno Torres, Global Business Development Manager Health & Nutrition at Rousselot, May​ 20 at 14:30-14:55​ CEST
  • Nextida GC: the science behind boosting natural GLP-1 with collagen – by Dr. Catarina Ferreira da Silva, Science Integration Manager at Rousselot, May 21 at 14:30-14:55​ CEST

Beyond innovative solutions for glucose control, Rousselot will present its extensive collagen portfolio, including Peptan®, the premium collagen peptides for holistic health, shown in studies to support skin[5] and hair[6] beauty, mobility,[7],[8] sports recovery[9] and sleep[10] and Colartix®, a unique matrix of collagen peptides and chondroitin sulfate with science on joint care.[11]

The company’s proprietary gelatin solutions will also be on display, fostering innovation and performance in functional gummies, softgels, and hard capsules. Additionally, visitors will have the opportunity to learn more about Rousselot’s globally produced pharmaceutical gelatins, designed to meet high-quality standards and ensure reliable supply, supported by Rousselot’s formulation and regulatory expertise.
