We have perfected a non-alcoholic liquid version of LERA®, LERA-VG, that is blended with Kosher vegetable glycerin. In this product the water and alcohol are carefully removed at very low heat, preserving the benefit of the Adaptogens and replacing the water and alcohol with vegetable glycerin.
The resulting product is very stable and allows food chemists a new range of flexibility in product design. In glycerin, the Adaptogens are active and stable. More importantly for some is that the delivery is slightly sweeter. The benefit is the reduced masking needed for flavoring your new product. Even straight up, the glycerin based LERA Adaptogen Blend is palatable and provides an interesting, slightly sweet natural herbal note. Our LERA-VG is Kosher and Vegan certified. A serving of the LERA-VG has been carefully calculated and designed to equal that of the original LERA blend. 1.72 grams of the vegetable glycerin product represents the precise elemental herbal components that were used in the clinical research studies.
Our latest innovation, LERA-DP, is LERA Adaptogen Blend in a water-soluble dry powder. The powder is created using an ultra-low-heat technology preserving the bioactive elements in the LERA. Then the product is extended slightly using a new product called CavaMax®, a unique and proprietary Cycodextrincalled alpha-cyclodextrin. The cyclodextrin molecule acts as a “nest” in which the elemental adaptogens reside to help assure homogenous blended powder and much better bio-availibility. The powder is free flowing, stable for 3 years and functional in a wide variety of formula applications including drink mixes, diet powders, capsules and much more. The elemental serving of 395 milligrams is available in 1.5 grams of powder. A full serving (clinical trial based) can fit into two 00xl capsules. Formula possibilities are limitless and include but are not limited to energy and sport supplements, enhanced vitamin delivery, coffee, tea and much more. We are proud of our products and are ready to work with your R&D team in sharing our experience in developing a product suited to your specific customer base.
