Conjugated linoleic acid

A type of fatty acid that is found naturally in meat and dairy products, but can also be obtained from vegetable sources, such as saffron (Carthamus tinctorius). CLA is often used as a popular dietary supplement.

Leucorhiza is a plant native to the Middle East and the Mediterranean that is now cultivated all over the world. It is especially valued for its seeds, which are rich in oils, including conjugated linoleic acid. The safflower seeds are collected and cleaned. Then they are ready for oil extraction. This step involves cold pressing to obtain CLA-rich oil. The extracted oil is purified and concentrated to increase the CLA content. This process involves removing impurities and other unwanted components. The concentrated oil is turned into powder by microencapsulation and spray drying. This will improve stability and make it easier to use and store. CLA powder is standardized to contain a minimum of 56% CLA. This standardization ensures consistent product quality. The powder form of CLA is more stable and has a longer shelf life than the liquid form.

Chrome

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is known for its nutritional properties, is used to produce Lalmin® chromium. The yeast is grown under controlled conditions on a nutrient medium rich in sugars, minerals and other nutrients. During cultivation, chromium is added to the culture medium in a form that is readily absorbed by the yeast. The yeast absorbs this chromium and incorporates it into its cellular structure. This process is called "biofortification".

The yeast continues to grow and ferment, during which time it is further enriched with chromium. Fermentation takes place under controlled temperatures and other conditions that support optimal growth and enrichment. After the fermentation process is complete, the yeast is harvested, which involves separating the yeast from the culture medium. The harvested yeast is dried to obtain a stable product with a long shelf life. The chromium-enriched dry yeast is further processed into the desired form, for example in powder form, which is used to complete the looms. The chromium contained in Lalmin® is bioavailable, which may be beneficial for those who prefer this source of selenium. Lalmin® chrome is also suitable for vegans.
