The NEOH sugar replacement formula ENSO
After 12 years of intensive research, innovative testing and development methods, and ongoing further development, NEOH has developed a sugar replacement formula that has hardly any effect on blood sugar. And that without compromising on taste or sweetness.
The NEOH sugar substitute can be used in almost all confectionery, from chocolate bars and waffles to chocolate, chocolate bonbons, cookies and much more. NEOH will therefore continuously expand the product portfolio.
At NEOH, sugar was not simply replaced, but also supplemented with dietary fiber and many probiotics in a perfect ratio based on our own research. The result is a homogeneous sugar substitute that tastes very good, sweetens like sugar, has no effect on blood sugar and is well tolerated. The main differentiation to conventional chocolate products at a glance:
-
Excellent taste
-
No added sugar
-
No effect on the blood sugar curve
-
40% fewer calories than traditional confectionery
-
5x more fiber than conventional confectionery
Experts such as FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) investor Heinrich Prokop (founder and managing partner at Clever Clover) estimate that NEOH has an innovation lead of around 5 years.
Hardly any effect on blood sugar
"Sugar-free" is the mega trend in the confectionery industry. More and more brands are entering the market with the message “no added sugar” or “sugar-free”. In almost all cases, either the taste is neglected or the product promise is only superficially correct. Because many products use dried fruit or honey instead of industrial sugar, which has a similar effect on the organism as conventional household sugar (comparison of the glycemic index). Sweeteners such as maltitol also reappear as sugars in the blood at a high percentage. However, for inexperienced users with diabetes, this is a very problematic issue. That is why it cannot and must not only be about removing refined sugar from confectionery. It is crucial that everything that appears in the blood as sugar and thus influences insulin production in the body is replaced.
NEOH is one of the very few products on the market that not only has no added sugar, but also has virtually no effect on the blood sugar curve. And NEOH is the only brand that also achieves first-class taste experiences for the general public.
Sustainable products without problematic ingredients
But NEOH is not only convincing in terms of taste and when looking at the blood sugar curve. For NEOH, quality and sustainability are top priorities when it comes to the manufacture of the products. That is why all ingredients come from Europe and the USA, and all ingredients that are not up for consideration from the point of view of the NEOH management team have been left out.
-
Palm oil, because it is suspected of being carcinogenic and cultivation is often at the expense of rainforest areas that are illegally burned for new plantations
-
Preservatives still used in some confectionery and which pose serious health concerns
-
Sweeteners such as maltitol, which then really cause the blood sugar level to rise again
-
Sweeteners such as stevia, which are suspected of having negative effects on the gut microbiome and thus on the immune system
-
Stabilizers of concern – 18 of the 51 authorized in the EU are classified as of concern.
NEOH products are also characterized by the following advantages:
- NEOH uses many plant fibers that have a prebiotic effect on the microbiome and thus promote intestinal health and the immune system.
- Compared to sweets with added sugar, NEOH is alkaline and thus promotes a healthy acid balance, while sugar massively overacidifies the body and thus promotes inflammation.
- NEOH's sugar substitute mixture can replace sugar 1:1 in any production process without affecting taste, consistency or smell.
