[What is Pine bark?]

Pine bark, botanical name Pinus pinaster, is a maritime pine native to southwest France that also grows in countries along the western Mediterranean.  Pine bark contains a number of beneficial compounds that are extracted from the bark in a way that doesn’t destroy or damage the tree.

[How does it work?]

What gives pine bark extract its notoriety as a powerful ingredient and super antioxidant is that it’s loaded with oligomeric proanthocyanidin compounds, OPCs for short. The same ingredient can be found in grape seeds, the skin of peanuts and witch hazel bark. But what makes this miracle ingredient so amazing?

While OPCs found in this extract are mostly known for their antioxidant-producing benefits, these amazing compounds exude antibacterial, antiviral, anticarcinogenic, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. Pine bark extract can help reduce muscle soreness and may help improve conditions relating to poor circulation, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes, ADHD, female reproductive issues, skin, erectile dysfunction, eye disease and sports stamina.

Seems like it must be pretty amazing, but let’s look closer. The list goes on a bit further, as the OPCs in this extract may “inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation, capillary permeability and fragility, and to affect enzyme systems,” which basically means it may be a natural treatment for many serious health conditions, such as stroke and heart disease.

Having SteviaSweet 95-60 stevia extract in the food designer’s toolkit. Extracted from the leaves of the South American plant Stevia rebaudiana, this high potency sweetener has 200 to 300 times the sweetness of sugar. There are several components within the leaf, but only two main steviol glycosides contribute sweetness, Stevioside and Rebaudioside A commonly referred to as Reb A. Both the balance and the purity of these compounds will impact flavor.

While many companies gravitate toward high levels of Reb A, Steviva Ingredients has a different approach with SteviaSweet 95-60. SteviaSweet 95-60 is a proprietary blend of steviol glycosides containing 60% pure Reb A and 95% steviosides. This perfect combination delivers what we feel is the least bitter and most well rounded flavor high intensity sweetener available.

No harsh chemical solvents are used in the SteviaSweet 95-60 stevia extract process. Water extraction and temperature induced spray-drying produces this naturally sweet powder. Clean processing is especially important because the meaning of the word natural is coming under scrutiny.
As one of the nation’s leading suppliers of stevia products, Steviva Ingredients is committed to producing the food industry’s best all natural, high intensity sweeteners. SteviaSweet 95-60 is ideal for baked goods, confections, sweet goods, packaged meals, beverages and marinades.
