BENEO’s portfolio supports weight management, digestive, bone, and dental health enhanced energy for mental and physical performance.

By incorporating BENEO’s innovative ingredients, manufacturers can develop products that align with health trends, sustainability goals, and evolving consumer preferences.
Smart nutrition ingredients for weight management, muscle maintenance and digestive health

Weight management is increasingly defined by satiety, sustained energy, and metabolic support; not only calorie reduction. BENEO helps brands develop products that match this consumer mindset with ingredients that support appetite regulation, digestive health, muscle mass and everyday balance. Our solutions are designed to deliver real nutrition in enjoyable, repeatable formats.
Yoghurt as a smart solution for everyday weight support
Yoghurt is a familiar and trusted food that fits naturally into daily eating moments. By combining Palatinose™, with a gentle impact on blood glucose levels, functional fibres to support satiety and digestive health and protein to contribute to fullness and muscle maintenance, yoghurt-based products can deliver meaningful nutrition with every spoon or sip.
Palatinose™ for sustained energy and balanced blood glucose
Palatinose™ (isomaltulose) is a slow-release carbohydrate that provides balanced energy with a gentle impact on blood glucose levels. This makes it ideal for weight management-positioned products where consumers want a more balanced approach to energy intake throughout the day. Unlike traditional sucrose, Palatinose™ promotes higher GLP-1 levels, making it effective at promoting weight loss and fat mass loss.
Functional fibres for satiety, digestion and metabolic health
Fibres play a central role in sustainable weight management. BENEO’s portfolio includes barley beta-glucans and prebiotic chicory root fibres such as inulin and oligofructose. These fibres support digestive health and a balanced gut microbiome. Prebiotic fibres are fermented by the gut microbiota, supporting the production of short-chain fatty acids linked to appetite regulation and metabolic health.
Functional proteins for fullness and muscle maintenance
Protein supports weight management by increasing satiety and helping maintain muscle mass. BENEO’s functional plant proteins, including faba bean and rice proteins, enable plant-forward innovation while meeting expectations for taste, texture, and performance. This supports long-term weight management and helps reduce the risk of weight regain.
