Vegan, high-protein and organic, combined with convenience and enjoyment: this mix of top trends has been translated by SternLife, the functional food specialist, into attractive new ideas for health product suppliers as well as for drugstore chains and private labels. At this year's BioFach exhibition in Nuremberg, the full-service provider for functional foods to the private label sector presented its novel products to the specialist public. Organically grown dates are the foundation of the new functional bars which SternLife offers in two flavors: cocoa with the superfood hempseed, and spicy lemon with ginger and chili. Benefitting from the natural, mild sweetness of the dates, the bar is an attractive healthy snack for a wide target group. Its protein content of 20 percent and a high proportion of dietary fibers make it ideal for athletes and persons who casually enjoy active sports, before, during and after training. This innovative product offers additional value-added potential to for example sport nutrition manufacturers. The vegan bar is free from gluten, soy or lactose and has a balanced amino acid profile. Rice, peas and hempseed serve as sources of protein. The company's vegan protein shake enables manufacturers and retailers to offer a product that appeals specifically to active young people. The nutritious shake with 55 percent protein and a balanced amino acid profile derived from rice, peas and hemp as well as sunflower seeds helps to build up and maintain muscle mass.
