bit more 'meat on the bones" compared to RNS - AA rating for instance and £180bn of retail sales per annum

OptiBiotix Health Plc (‘OptiBiotix’) is proud to announce that it has achieved the highly regarded British Retail Consortium (‘BRC’) accreditation with an AA rating.

The certification supports OptiBiotix’ reputation and commitment as a leading developer of a unique range of scientific compounds that modulate the microbiome to address metabolic syndrome and diabetes, systemic low-grade inflammation, obesity, cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol.

As a leading international food safety standard, BRC was the first trade association to meet the Global Food Safety Initiative (‘GFSI’) benchmark, which means it is accepted by many of the world’s biggest retailers, such as Tesco and Walmart. Membership comprises over 170 major retailers and several niche retail Trade Associations, with members delivering an estimated £180bn of retail sales each year.

Stephen O’ Hara, CEO of OptiBiotix Health Plc explained: “The certification ensures that our customers can now have complete and measurable confidence in OptiBiotix products. It allows us to do business with retailers, manufacturers, ingredients companies and food service organisations who specify certification as part of their approval process, including most large retailers and their suppliers, for our wide range and science backed products.”

BRC incorporates food safety management systems and internationally accepted best practice to ensure the safety and quality of products. As the adulteration and fraud of food ingredients are on the increase, it reinforces an end product’s provenance and reduces the risk of recalls.

René Kamminga, CEO of OptiBiotix Ltd, an OptiBiotix Health Plc subsidiary, commented: “We are incredibly pleased to secure BRC accreditation and achieving the highest rating of AA highlights our commitment to quality to the highest degree. This success supports our commercial strategy of selling final product solutions to partners in the retail channel containing our science-backed pro and prebiotic ingredients. We are particularly proud of our team’s achievement in gaining this accreditation in a relatively short period of time.”

oops meant to add this from interims Sep 2021 which set me on the path tonight

unfortunately I haven't been able to find any products to date (nearly two years on) - hopefully some others might be able to shed further light on this

seems a bit strange to list probiotics under yogurt and then state no products to display

LPLDL study now on Roehampton website as of today 1 Feb 2022

https://www.roehampton.ac.uk/life-and-health-sciences/news/probiotic-study-shows-statistically-significant-reductions-in-bad-cholesterol/

Cardiovascular disease remains the world’s number one killer, with most people at risk prescribed statins and aspirin. This research is therefore a significant step forward for a probiotic that can truly make a difference.

Dr Adele Costabile, lead researcher on the study and Reader of Nutrition in our School of Health and Life Sciences added “it is a very promising study in the fight against cardiovascular disease with the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum LPLDL.”

This research is part of an ongoing research project funded by OptiBiotix Health Plc.

Got it now

Our rns of May 2019

https://www.optibiotix-ir.com/content/news/archive/2019/20-05-19

Nutrilinea, based near Milan in northern Italy, is a manufacturer of food supplement formulations containing probiotics, with over 15 years' experience in the development of products for the food and pharmaceutical industries in Europe and the United States. It is one of OptiBiotix's preferred manufacturers, and currently produces the Company's CholBiome®, CholBiome®x3 and SlimBiome® Medical products. Nutrilinea has technology that enables the production of multilayer tablets used in CholBiome®x3 which will also be used for this new product.

Goetz partners note (on page 26) provided this

May-19 LPLDL Nutrilinea Srl. (Europe ex-UK) License agreement for use of LPLDL in a food supplement (TensRed) for reduction of high blood pressure. Nutrilinea covers cost of product development, manufacturing & human studies, has 12 mos exclusivity in Europe. ProBiotix has exclusivity for UK & all other markets ex-Europe.

Nutrilinea merged with biopharma in late 2019

and now apparently group sold

MILAN, Jan 17 2022 (Reuters) - European private equity firm Ardian struck a deal to buy the majority of Italy's Biofarma Group from White Bridge Investments in order to boost further the international growth of the drug company, a statement said on Monday.

The Scarpa family, which founded the group, will keep a 30% stake in the drug firm and Maurizio Castorina will continue to lead Biofarma as chief executive, it added without providing financial details of the deal.

On Sunday two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters Ardian had signed the takeover agreement for about 1.1 billion euros ($1.26 billion).

White Bridge, led by former BC Partners investor Marco Pinciroli, took control of Biofarma in 2019 by merging it with its portfolio company Nutrilinea. Ardian entered exclusive talks to buy Biofarma from owner White Bridge Investments earlier this year, after trumping a rival offer from buyout fund BC Partners, one of the sources said on Sunday.

Biofarma, specialised in food supplements, probiotic-based drugs and cosmetics, reported revenue of 230 million euros in 2021, of which around 50% from sales abroad.

nothing new but still mentioned in their Jan 2022 quarterly issue

https://www.agropur.com/us/sites/agropurus/files/documents/22-0126%20Agropur%20Quarterly%20Connection-Issue04.pdf

Two more innovations were showcased at SupplySide West, held on Oct. 25-28, 2021 in Las Vegas, NV. We featured a frozen dessert concept featuring SlimBiome®, an innovative ingredient that promotes weight loss by maintaining a feeling of fullness. The fudge-flavored dessert, which also includes whey protein, is low in sugar and calories.

SupplySide West attendees enjoyed samples of our snack shake concept. It’s a low-calorie, great tasting instant protein beverage featuring whey protein and SlimBiome. One serving has just 100 calories and 15 grams of protein. It can reduce cravings and keeps consumers full throughout the day. With a delicious vanilla ice cream flavor, it’s an easy-to-mix beverage
that consumers will look forward to drinking.

Useful summary

Perhaps OptiBiotix’s potential will be recognised as the year unfolds.

“With seven high profile large corporate, retail, and pharma partners in multiple territories, expanding product ranges and territories, a greater focus on direct-to-consumer, and greater investment in sales and marketing, 2022 should be a year of strong growth,” O’Hara says.

seed no3 on this list for best for general health

https://www.wellnessverge.com/best-probiotics-according-to-dietitians

Best Probiotics for General Health
Some people may want to take a probiotic just for general health. They may not have a specific concern but know the benefits of a healthy gut.
For general health, probiotics may be helpful with reducing inflammation associated with aging and decreasing the risk of various chronic diseases. The two most common genus in the human body are Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus.
A probiotic for general health should contain a variety of each of these. Also, choose a product with at least 10 billion CFUs.
Optimally, your probiotic should also contain some type of prebiotic, or food for the healthy bacteria. This helps ensure that the probiotics remain alive and are able to colonize the gut once they arrive.
The most common prebiotics are fructooligosaccharides (FOS), galactooligosaccharides (GOS), or trans-galactooligosaccharides, but other types of fiber can be used as well.
While probiotics are safe for most people, those that are immunocompromised should avoid taking them.
Some probiotics may also contain lactose, so be sure to check the label if you are lactose intolerant.

Seed

Seed’s Daily Synbiotic was developed by a reputable Scientific Advisory board and designed to pioneer a product in the microbiome space.

It contains 24 strains of bacteria and a prebiotic from Indian pomegranate; together, this forms what is called a synbiotic.
The product contains different blends of probiotics to support a variety of health concerns. These include a healthy microbiome in the gut and heart, skin, and immune health.
It is dairy-free and therefore safe for people with a milk allergy or lactose intolerance. Seed’s probiotic is also free of common allergens.
The product has a delayed-release nested capsule with the prebiotic on the outside to protect the probiotics inside the capsule. This ensures the bacteria can survive digestion.
Seed’s probiotic is slightly more expensive than competitors, but due to the large number of different strains and the unique capsule design, this may justify the price.

Price: $49.99 for a 30-day supply ($1.67 per capsule)

The Bottom Line: Seed’s Daily Synbiotic contains a large number of probiotics with strains to address specific health concerns. This makes it an extremely comprehensive product. It would be ideal for someone who wants to support multiple health concerns at once.

just following up on another

we remain at forefront of home page

and spotted under e-commerce tab slimplus

clicking on that to the undernoted

https://zeonutra.com/product/slim-plus/

two reviews to date both January 2022 and both favourable

1. This is one healthy option I found as my meal replacement. Orange flavour tastes good and easy to take. It actually makes me feel full and curbs my hunger pangs for hours. It is now a part of my everyday routine.

2. Highly Recommened Product with well researched ingredient Slimbiome.
So, I have finally found something healthy & tasty too. It’s been a week I am having it & I love it’s Orange flavour and easy to make. It actually makes me feel full after having it. I feel energised and it reduces my hunger cravings.
Ofcourse, you will have to eat a balanced diet as well along with it and workout too is important.
However, SLimPlus does it’s job well !
