Booth Highlight: New Bellus NB®23—Scientific Support with Formulation Flexibility
New Bellus NB®23 is a probiotic and postbiotic ingredient developed with healthy aging applications in mind. Supported by human clinical research, it provides a scientific foundation that brands can consider when planning products, developing formulations, and communicating ingredient value.
In addition to its live probiotic format, NB23 is available as a heat-treated postbiotic; brands and formulation teams can evaluate the most suitable option according to product positioning, dosage form, and processing requirements, offering greater flexibility for healthy aging, active aging, and next-generation functional nutrition products.
NB23 has also been patented in Taiwan and Japan, reflecting New Bellus’ integrated capabilities across strain research, scientific validation, and product application development.
Booth Highlight: Heri-Mycelium HE12 and Its U.S. FDA NDI Notification
Heri-Mycelium HE12, a Lion’s Mane mycelium ingredient, was another key focus at our booth.
Heri-Mycelium HE12 has completed the U.S. FDA New Dietary Ingredient Notification process under NDI No. 1422. Within the corresponding recommended conditions of use, this documentation can serve as an additional asset for product safety and marketing.
Produced using New Bellus’ Patented Submerged
Fermentation technology, Heri-Mycelium HE12 offers brands a standardized
mushroom mycelium ingredient option for healthy aging, cognitive wellness, and
functional nutrition product development.
🎤 NutraFocus Seminar: A New Era of Healthy Aging
In addition to our booth showcase, New Bellus presented a NutraFocus seminar on September 3 titled “A New Era of Healthy Aging—New Bellus NB®23 Probiotic & Postbiotic Innovation Launch.”
The session was presented by Dr. Ting-Chun Lin, Director of R&D at New Bellus. Dr. Lin introduced the science and innovation behind New Bellus NB®23, including its development for healthy aging and human clinical research findings related to muscle health, metabolic wellness, vitality, and healthy aging.
The seminar also explored the product applications of NB23 in both live probiotic and heat-treated postbiotic formats. These options allow brands and formulation teams to evaluate suitable approaches according to their product positioning, dosage forms, and processing requirements.
The questions and discussions during the session reflected a broader industry priority: moving beyond individual research findings to translate scientific evidence into practical ingredient selection, formulation design, and responsible market communication.
