    Composition

    The patented ingredient DNF-10® is an active fraction obtained after protein hydrolysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a yeast species used for thousands of years in baking, fermented food and beverage manufacturing processes. The manufacturing of DNF-10® involves enzymatic proteolysis and a selection of peptides with a molecular weight  <10kDa after an ultrafiltration step. The material is then spray-dried to obtain a dried powder. 

    Features & Benefits

    Product Highlights
    • Selected peptidic fraction from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
    • Clinically proven benefits on a total of 135 subjects
    • Reduction of caloric intake significant after the first weeks (down to -600kcal/day after 8 weeks)
    • Significant weight loss after the first month
    • Weight loss is from fat mass reduction
    • Abdominal fat and waist circumference significantly decrease

    Applications & Uses

    Use Level
    500
    Mechanism of Action
    DNF-10®  decreasing food intake :

    A significant action on the modulators of short-term food intake at the hypothalamic level (NPY) and at the digestive level with a reduction in the hunger hormone ghrelin have been demonstrated.

    Over the longer-term, DNF-10® also regulates our cellular secretion of leptin, the satiety hormone.
