Functional Innovative Formula for Intestinal Wellbeing​

ADVANCED COMPOSITION

High Dietary Fiber Content:

Primary Source: Derived from plum pulp.

• Physiological Effects: Promotes intestinal peristalsis and helps alleviate chronic constipation, common in individuals undergoing intensive pharmacological treatments.

Natural Prebiotics:
Benefits: Support the growth of beneficial bacteria (e.g., Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus), increasing intestinal microbiome diversity — a key marker of systemic health.

No Added Sugars:
• Natural Sweetener: Fruit extracts rich in sorbitol, a naturally occurring sugar alcohol that provides sweetness with minimal glycemic impact.

Bioactive Compounds:
Chlorogenic acid and sorbitol: Contribute to intestinal mucosa protection and help reduce inflammation associated with drug-induced dysbiosis.

Functional plum cream

for Intestinal Wellbeing

Innovation in Functional Foods

The functional plum cream is positioned as an innovation in the field of functional foods, designed for people experiencing intestinal dysbiosis and problems associated with long-term medication use.

EThe approach of this product is supported by studies on the positive impact of prebiotics and bioactive compounds on intestinal health.

This technological development not only addresses a global health problem, but also optimizes nutritional value without compromising flavor.

Advanced Composition

High in dietary fiber

  • Primary source: Derived from plum pulp.
  • Physiological effects: Promotes intestinal peristalsis and combats chronic constipation, common in patients undergoing intensive drug treatments.

Natural Prebiotics

  • Benefit: They promote the growth of beneficial bacteria (e.g., Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus), which increases the diversity of the gut microbiome, a key marker of systemic health.

No added sugar

  • Natural sweetener: Fruit extracts rich in sorbitol, a natural sugar alcohol that provides sweetness without significant glycemic impact.

Bioactive Compounds

  • Chlorogenic acid and sorbitol: They contribute to the protection of the intestinal mucosa and reduce inflammation caused by drug-induced dysbiosis.

Benefits for Intestinal Health

Regulation of intestinal transit

  • The fiber and prebiotic content promotes water retention in the stool, facilitating its evacuation without causing irritation.
  • Especially useful for people with medication-induced constipation, such as antibiotics and opioids.

Microbiota Balance

  • Promotes the production of beneficial bacteria, reducing the presence of opportunistic pathogens.
  • Reduces intestinal inflammation thanks to the production of butyrate and other SCFAs, essential for the health of the intestinal epithelium.

Mitigation of adverse effects

  • Reduces symptoms such as bloating, gas, and stomach upset by improving microbial fiber metabolism.
  • It helps modulate gas production without causing excessive fermentation, making it suitable for people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

Mucosal Protection

  • The polyphenols and sorbitol in plums help reduce drug-induced intestinal irritation and protect against oxidative damage.
  • It prevents excessive intestinal permeability, reducing the risk of systemic inflammation.

Specific Applications

  • Patients on long-term treatments
    Indicated for people undergoing therapies with:
    - Antibiotics, to counteract dysbiosis and strengthen the microbiota.
    - Chemotherapy , protecting the mucosa and alleviating digestive side effects.
    - NSAIDs and opioids, reducing constipation and protecting the intestinal barrier.
  • People with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
    - Helps regulate intestinal transit, reducing inflammation and symptoms of bloating.
  • Older adults
    - Easy to consume and highly digestible, ideal for improving digestive health in people with reduced mobility or difficulty chewing.

Impact on Mental Health

The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional connection between the digestive system and the central nervous system, influenced by the gut microbiota, neurotransmitters, and systemic inflammation.

Scientific evidence has shown that an imbalance in the gut microbiota (dysbiosis) may be linked to mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, and cognitive fatigue.

Neurotransmitter Regulation

  • More than 90% of serotonin, the neurotransmitter of well-being, is produced in the gut and depends on microbial balance for proper synthesis.
  • It increases the presence of beneficial bacteria linked to increased serotonin production and reduced cortisol.

HPA Axis Modulation

  • In patients with anxiety and depression, the HPA axis (responsible for the stress response) is often hyperactivated.
  • The components of Digi+ modulate the HPA axis, reducing excessive cortisol production and promoting greater emotional balance.

Cognitive Effects

  • Butyrate, produced by fiber fermentation, improves mitochondrial function in neurons, increasing brain energy.
  • Plum polyphenols have neuroprotective effects, promoting synaptic plasticity and memory.

Applications in Mental Health Patients

  • Patients with depression and anxiety: Improves serotonin production and reduces brain inflammation.
  • People with chronic stress: Regulates the HPA axis and reduces cortisol.
  • Patients with mental fatigue: Improves SCFA and BDNF production.
  • Neurodegenerative disorders: Neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties.

Economía Azul

La Economía Azul en la alimentación se centra en la sostenibilidad de la producción y consumo de alimentos provenientes del mar, promoviendo prácticas que protejan los ecosistemas marinos y garanticen la seguridad alimentaria.
La Economía Azul busca un equilibrio entre el uso de los recursos marinos y la preservación de la salud de los ecosistemas. Se promueve el aprovechamiento eficiente de los recursos marinos, minimizando el desperdicio y maximizando el valor de los productos del mar. Se fomenta la investigación y desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías para la producción y procesamiento de alimentos marinos y se busca generar una mayor conciencia sobre la importancia de la pesca y la acuicultura sostenibles y la reducción del desperdicio alimentario.
