Top Trends and Highlights from NNB Nutrition at SupplySide West 2024

  1. High Demand for XPO NRG Energy Drink

    The collaborative energy drink XPO NRG, featuring NNB’s potent MitoPrime (L-Ergothioneine), garnered significant attention. Industry professionals were keen to understand:

    XPO NRG: An Industry-First Collaborative Energy Drink

    PricePlow is proud to announce XPO NRG, an industry-first collaborative energy drink exclusive to SupplySide West 2024. With 10 partners, we ran 50,000 cans at MacroCap Labs!

    • If they could ever purchase XPO NRG for their own distribution (sorry, but this is unlikely to happen).
    • Methods to replicate its success in their product lines.
    • Flavoring techniques used to achieve its exceptional taste profile.
    • The high dose of MitoPrime, made possible with new lower prices.

    XPO NRG represents a new era of industry collaboration, combining powerful ingredients with collaborative industry efforts. The buzz around this product underscores the market’s appetite for innovative energy solutions. We were proud to have NNB Nutrition make a massive impact on the project with their addition of MitoPrime and their prime booth location.

    You can learn more about MitoPrime L-ergothioneine in our article, Ergothioneine: The Immunity and Energy Protector.

  2. Interest in Concentrated Ingredients for Beverages and Gummies

    The beverage and gummy trend is not letting up! Beverage and gummy manufacturers flocked to NNB’s booth, expressing strong interest in their concentrated ingredients:

    SalidroPure Logo

    • Salidroside: NNB’s upcoming SalidroPure launch is a pure salidroside ingredient produced through fermentation. It serves as a sustainable alternative to RhodioPrime 6X, addressing concerns after Rhodiola crenulata was added to the CITES endangered list.
    • L-Ergothioneine: Recognized for its antioxidant properties, L-Ergothioneine is gaining traction in immunity and energy products. This is discussed above, where NNB Nutrition’s recent innovations have enabled lower prices of the ingredient, to the point where we can get affordable, experiential doses.
    • GeniusPure Alpha-GPC: NNB’s GeniusPure is a higher-yield, more stable form of Alpha-GPC. Attendees were excited about forthcoming data showcasing significant cognitive improvements after just one dose.

      We dive into this trend more in the next section:

  3. ‘Double Your Focus with One Dose’ โ€“ GeniusPure Crushes the Alpha-GPC Market

    NNB Nutrition GeniusPure Alpha-GPC - Stable Alpha-GPC 70% or 90%!

    Pre-workout and energy drink formulators were particularly intrigued by GeniusPure’s bold claim to “double your focus with one dose.” The prospect of enhancing cognitive performance and focus resonated strongly with brands looking to differentiate their products in a crowded market.

    Stay tuned for upcoming data and studies that substantiate GeniusPure’s impressive claims. The new research is coming soon and will be discussed in our main article, GeniusPure Alpha-GPC: Stable Alpha-GPC 70% and 90% from NNB Nutrition.

  4. Spotlight on Dihydroberberine and DL185 Dileucine Peptide

    Attendees were also impressed by two different ingredients that may have major implications in the world of GLP-1:

    Berberine vs. Dihydroberberine

    A study published in early 2022 showed that NNB Nutrition’s GlucoVantage dihydroberberine outperformed higher doses of normal berberine in elevating plasma berberine and reducing blood sugar and insulin levels!

  5. Surge in Demand for Natural Flavors โ€“ Enter SweetVantage

    Chad Kerksick on Dileucine, Dihydroberberine, and GLP-1: Episode 142 of the PricePlow Podcast

    Chad Kerksick finishes his 2-part podcast series on the PricePlow Podcast in Episode #142 to discuss his research done on NNB Nutrition ingredients like DL185 dileucine and GlucoVantage dihydroberberine. We also talk study design and targeting new research areas like GLP-1.

    The industry-wide push for natural flavoring solutions was evident, with many brands seeking alternatives to artificial sweeteners without compromising taste. NNB Nutrition’s SweetVantage emerged as a promising solution that we look forward to covering in early 2025.

    SweetVantage is NNB’s natural sweetener blend comprising of specific stevia rebaudiosides, including Reb-A, Reb-D, and Reb-M. It can be paired with or without allulose, and is the result of 3 years and $2.5 million in R&D.

    While we haven’t officially announced SweetVantage yet, the interest it garnered at SupplySide West indicates a significant market demand for high-quality natural sweeteners that can deliver on taste.
