Nutraceuticals

Because consumers are concerned about purity, OPTIM™ Glycerine is especially well suited for use in nutraceuticals by both the food and pharmaceutical industries due to its high purity and consistent quality. Nutraceuticals are the fastest growing application in the food and dietary supplement industries. Nutraceuticals are generally defined as naturally occurring compounds found in plants and other biological sources and include vitamins, minerals, microbials and herbs. They may be a food or a food ingredient that provides a health or medical benefit.
