The new line of symbiotic gummies is designed to support gut health.
ISRAEL – TopGum, a company specialising in gummy supplements, has introduced Gummiotics, an all-in-one functional gummy containing probiotics, postbiotics and prebiotic fibre.
The company said that the product, which comes in two natural flavours and colours, orange and strawberry, is designed to deliver comprehensive gut health benefits in one convenience.
The solution taps into the rapidly growing market for biotics-based products, harnessing a convenient format in which the pre-, pro and postbiotics work synergistically to support multiple aspects of gut health, including nutrient absorption and digestive balance.
Eyal Shohat, CEO of TopGum, said: “One of our key missions at TopGum is to continuously track market trends and scientific advancements to ensure we stay ahead of evolving consumer needs.
“Gut health has become a key focus for consumers and supplement brands, driven by growing research on pro-, pre-, and postbiotics benefits.”
Each 3g mandarin slice-shaped gummy contains 1 billion CFUs of spore-forming strains of Bacillus subtilis (DE111) and 34mg of the post-biotic Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (BPL1).
It is also infused with 60% prebiotic content, stemming from its fibre-powered gummy matrix.
“Their impact on digestion, weight management and even mood and cognitive function presents strong opportunities for innovation, and we are committed to delivering science-backed solutions that align with these trends,” Eyal said.
He also highlighted that gummies have potential benefits for digestion, weight management, mood, and cognitive function, offering significant opportunities for innovation.
The company said the organic, clean-label gummies are free from added sugars, artificial additives, and unwanted fillers, setting a new standard for science-driven, enjoyable, functional nutrition.
It also noted that chicory root fibre, a key fibre in Gummiceuticals’ composition, carries low sugar/sugar-free health claims at specific doses and supports gut wellness.
The advanced Gummiceuticals technology delivers effective doses of the bioactive without refrigeration, making it convenient for on-the-go supplementation.
Jennifer Toomey, Head of New Product Development for TopGum USA, said: “One of the biggest challenges in incorporating probiotics into the gummy format is their inherent sensitivity to heat.
“That is why we use dormant spore-forming probiotics that maintain stability under conditions of heat and low pH rather than using active live ones.”
