Crystal Clear, Soluble Vitamin D3 for Beverages

BEER SHEVA, IsraelLycoRed Ltd. launched CapsuDar® D3 CWD, a crystal clear, soluble vitamin D3 for use in beverages. It can be used in a wide range of beverages and liquid preparations, powdered beverages, and tablet or ready-to-drink (RTD) formulas. It is especially suited for use in flavored or functional waters.

CapsuDar D3 CWD dissolves instantly and stays stable across a wide range of pH levels. It is a microencapsulated, water-dispersible preparation that protects the normally fat-soluble vitamin against light, oxidation and acids, which normally inactivate vitamin D3 when added to beverage applications. "We developed this product to support our customers needing a highly soluble vitamin D3 in their beverage applications," explains Udi Alroy, vice president of global marketing and sales at LycoRed. "In the past couple of years there has been a significant increase in consumer awareness and scientific research showing an array of benefits of vitamin D. With this new development we provide a competitive edge to existing vitamin D3 products currently on the market. The next stage was to adjust the new vitamin D to beverage applicationsand in particular to functional waters where clear, soluble solutions are required."
