Weight-loss products in Europe
Fabuless, DSM's weight-management ingredient, has been incorporated into a new dietary supplement in Europe. Registered as Slimthru in the UK and Ireland and Slimcup in Austria, Germany and Italy, the single-serve product is distributed by Melbrosin. Each 7.5ml serving contains the effective dosage of Fabuless, an emulsion of palm and oat oils that has been shown to reduce the feeling of hunger and food intake at subsequent meals for up to eight hours. The emulsion has a creamy texture, neutral odour and slightly 'oaty' taste, meaning it can be consumed either on its own or added to foods and beverages of choice such as coffee, yoghurt or cereals.
