Innovation starts here



You are what you eat: healthy foods, healthy people

Worldwide concerns about cardiovascular diseases, gut health and obesity increased the consumer demand for healthy food choices. Health is the main driver for innovation in the food industry!

If you are looking for functional ingredients and aim to develop tasty, low-calorie foods NIZO can select and produce health ingredients and apply them into stable product formulations that are released at specific target sites. To demonstrate effects on for example gut micro-flora and satiety various in vitro, models and human trials are available.

Make use of NIZO technology and expertise to develop functional foods and build your health claims!


Key-words: gut health, infection, inflammation, immune modulation, oral health, obesity, satiety, influenza, prebiotics, probiotics, proteins, bio-active peptides, vitamins, minerals, nutraceuticals, fermentation, chromatography, membrane separation, hydrolysis, encapsulation, controlled release, bioavailability, health claims, low calorie, low fat, taste, texture
