Cosucra & weight control
3 May 2012Cosucra continuously watches market evolutions and strives to develop innovative concepts in line with arising or existing consumers needs. One of the most prevalent consumer concerns nowadays is weight management and control. As obesity and overweight are reaching epidemic levels, consumers are aware of the risks and are willing to adapt their diet.
As Pisane® as well as Fibruline® offer several nutritional advantages that help to manage and control weight, our technical food experts developed a whole new range of weight management applications with these ingredients, including
- high protein powder mixes (e.g. for pancakes and potato purees)
- high protein, no-added sugar snacks (e.g. bar, cake and pudding)
- high protein and high fibre hot beverages (e.g. soup and cappuccino)
- meal replacement bars and beverages
Do not hesitate to visit the Fibruline® and Pisane® website, or contact our company for more information about our ingredients and their added value for weight management applications.

PEAS ARE ‘GREEN’
6 March 2012
PEAS ARE ‘GREEN’
6 March 2012Contrary to other crops which need fertilization, pulses such as peas are self-sufficient for nitrogen. They are able to fix nitrogen from the air thanks to symbiotic bacteria naturally hosted in the plant roots. As a consequence, introducing peas in an agricultural rotation system not only implies increased biodiversity and decreased use of pesticides, but also reduced fertilisation resulting into lower greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, the cultivation of peas allows to reduce the fertilization and improve the yields of the following crops in the rotation.
