Metabolic Health
Boosting energy and controlling body fat starts in the gut.
IN 2020, THE U.S. ADULT OBESITY RATE TOPPED 40%
IT’S TIME FOR A GUT CHECK ON METABOLIC HEALTH
Excess visceral fat. Unhealthy waist-hip ratio. High cholesterol and blood-glucose levels. Lockdown conditions have exacerbated alarming trends in obesity, hypertension, and high cholesterol in the U.S. and worldwide. Metabolic health actually starts from the gut – meaning that the integrity and health of our gut epithelium plays a vital role in the development of several metabolic issues such as metabolic stress-related tissue inflammation or liver health. By strengthening the gut epithelium and the so-called barrier functions in the GI tract, it is possible to prevent these obesity-linked perturbations. HOWARU® solutions can promote metabolic function to support a healthy body mass index (BMI) and metabolic wellness for people who want a lifestyle that helps them feel—and look—better.

“I am extremely happy and proud of enabling/witnessing the launch of the first yoghurt-based product in the Finnish market containing a combination of our bifidobacteria (B420™) and dietary fiber (polydextrose). This product was launched in 2020 and has been available for Finnish consumers ever since. The product is truly unique, and I have been involved in developing the science behind it for 10+ years. I took part in the very initial screening tests for the B420™ strain in our lab back in 2007.”
