New Organic Ingredients

BI Nutraceuticals has introduced six new organic ingredients, including anise seed, fennel seed, ginger root, licorice root, psyllium and slippery elm. Each new ingredient is certified organic and treated via BI’s proprietary steam sterilization process, Protexx HP, which reduces microbial contaminants in botanical herbs using super-heated dry steam. Protexx HP uses super-heated dry steam to reduce microbiological load with results comparable to that of treatment with ethylene oxide or irradiation without the potential regulatory issues. Protexx HP delivers maximum reduction in potential contaminants while preserving color, flavor and bioactive components. The Protexx HP steam sterilization process has been certified organic by Quality Assurance International.
