A new randomised controlled trial, conducted by Gaylor et al,[i] demonstrates that BENEO’s slow and sustained release carbohydrate Palatinose™ improves aspects of sleep when consumed as a bedtime drink. By leading to more balanced blood glucose levels, particularly during the first half of the night, Palatinose™ may support a longer deep sleep phase and, thus, restful sleep.[1] Based on this research, there is now even more evidence to show that Palatinose™ provides a range of benefits beyond … [Read more...] about Scientific study shows BENEO’s Palatinose™ as a bedtime drink improves aspects of sleep

Weight management benefits of chicory root fibres confirmed via systematic review with meta-analyses
A new systematic literature review with meta-analyses, conducted by Reimer et al[i], demonstrates that chicory root fibre intake promotes a significant reduction in body weight, body mass index (BMI), fat mass, waist circumference, and to a certain extent, body fat percentage. Based on this review, there is now even stronger evidence to show that supplementation with chicory root fibre can lead to clinically meaningful reductions in body weight and other weight management parameters. Obesity … [Read more...] about Weight management benefits of chicory root fibres confirmed via systematic review with meta-analyses
Study shows BENEO’s Palatinose™ stimulates the release of GLP-1 in overweight adults
A new study led by Prof. Andreas Pfeiffer (Zhang et al.[i]) demonstrates that intake of the naturally sourced, smart carbohydrate Palatinose™ stimulates the release of beneficial gut hormones, including GLP-1 in overweight adults, even if its consumption is followed by a meal. The findings show that Palatinose™ (isomaltulose) has a beneficial effect on metabolic parameters that are important for maintaining a healthy body weight, blood glucose control, and cardiovascular health. GLP-1 has … [Read more...] about Study shows BENEO’s Palatinose™ stimulates the release of GLP-1 in overweight adults
