    Fermentation Berries

    Fermentation is a way to pre-digest the ingredients of Berriotics™. If done correctly with a variety of microorganisms, the useful ingredients such as the soluble fibers, the anthocyanins and the polyphenols of the berries are being split into more accessible smaller pieces. Smaller pieces of fibers (microfibres), the anthocyanidins & flavol aglycones are important antioxidants that are directly effective in the intestine and prevent inflammation. They also act as SOD-like substances. The berry fibers are transformed into microfibres and are the ideal nutrition for intestinal bacteria.

    Product Highlights
    • Very rich in different types of anthocyanins with the highest bioavailability
    • Contributes to a healthy microbiome and cardiovascular system
    • Contains about 90% water-soluble microfibres
    • Creation of new & unique metabolites

    Technical Details & Test Data

    Patented 4-Stage Fermentation

    Patented 4-stage fermentation, a highly safe process

    Berriotics™ - Patented 4-Stage Fermentation

     

     

     

    1. Lactic Acid Bacteria : 
      • Degradation of starch, proteins and fats
      • Exopolysaccharide production
      • Small molecule nutrients such as Gaba and polyphenols
    2. Yeasts :
      • Starch degradation
      • Vitamin increase
      • Natural flavors
      • Production alcohol
    3. Lactobacillus Spp. Bifidobacterium Spp. :
      • Antioxidant capacity 
      • Antinutritional factors 
      • Production lactic acid and organic acid
      • Rich in probiotic metabolites
    4. Acetic Acid Bacteria :
      • Conversion of alcohol into acetate
      • Production short chain fatty acids (SCFAs)
      • Inhibition of pathogens
      • Enhance storability by lower pH value
    The Role of The Different Active Ingredients of Berriotics™

    The role of the different active ingredients of Berriotics™, created by the patented fermentation process

    • Water-soluble Microfibres : A mixture of different types of fibers that are easier to digest by the different bacteria of our microbiome. Most of the enzymes work at the ends of chains. The smaller pieces have a lot more ends. The enhanced activity of the enzymes stimulates the microbiome to make more of them by influencing the transcription factors. The broad variety of fibers offers an effective menu for a large part of the microbiome. It stimulates the growth of the indigenous probiotics and therefore contributes to a balanced ecosystem of the microbiome. Single specific fibers such as inulin, XOS, FOS, GOS… often cause complaints as bloating & flatulence. They have longer chains and are not monocultures. 
    • Smaller Anthocyanins & Flavonols : 
      These smaller flavonoid polyphenols:
      • have enhanced antioxidative & anti-inflammatory properties
      • have in their aglycone form a complementary effect on prebiotics
    • SOD-like Substances : These are small plant molecules with a similar SOD-activity, such as hesperitin (aglycon form of hesperidin) & other transformed flavonoids.
      These SOD-like substances are:
      • easily absorbed by the body
      • stable & resistance against gastric acid, bile salts & enzymes
      • responsible for the elimination of O2 - or superoxide anion
    • Increased levels of certain vitamins and improvement of mineral bioacessibility
