Feiolix freeze-dried feijoa fruit powder for metabolic health
Derived from non-GMO New Zealand feijoas, Feiolix is a freeze-dried feijoa powder that’s used as an ingredient for health supplements and functional foods. It’s clinically proven to support metabolic health.
Feiolix feijoa powder is manufactured using the Anagenix proprietary freeze-drying process, which protects the potency and effectiveness of feijoa bioactives. Tests prove that Feiolix is effective at a low daily dose.
Anagenix is a global feijoa fruit powder supplier. With our own freeze-drying and packing plant, we are a feijoa fruit powder manufacturer for clinically proven and patented Feiolix.
how feiolix works
How does Feiolix support metabolic health?
Metabolic syndrome affects up to 25% of the adult population and up to 20% of children. Sometimes called ‘insulin resistance syndrome’ or ‘syndrome X’, it is a combination of diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and hyperlipidaemia.
Feiolix supports multiple aspects of metabolic health and its benefits have been proven in numerous in-vivo and clinical studies. The unique bioactives in Feiolix help with metabolic health by:
• Increasing insulin secretion
• Enhancing glucose absorption
• Increasing energy expenditure
• Increasing satiety and regulating appetite
• Reducing inflammation
• Reducing blood triglycerides and LDL cholesterol
• Reducing weight gain
“Feiolix is an anti-inflammatory insulin sensitiser. Feiolix contains high levels of a molecule called abscisic acid which enhances insulin secretion from the pancreas and supports stronger insulin signalling and better glucose absorption by muscle cells. ”
– DOUG ROSENDALE, CHIEF SCIENCE OFFICER
Why is NZ feijoa a superfruit for your metabolic health?
The feijoa is the fruit of Acca sellowiana, an evergreen tree that’s native to Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay. The alternate name for feijoa is ‘pineapple guava’. Feijoas have been grown in New Zealand since 1920 and New Zealand is now the largest producer of feijoas globally.
In addition to vitamin C and folate, feijoas contain three other bioactive compounds that are known to assist with metabolic health:
Abscisic acid, a hormone that acts to stimulate insulin release from the pancreas and increase glucose uptake by muscle cells.
Ellagitannins, which have an anti-inflammatory effect that helps the body to retain all-important insulin sensitivity. Ellagitannins also help to decrease inflammation in the central nervous system, helping to restore appetite regulation.
Xyloglucan, a type of dietary fibre that’s used by specific bacteria in the gut to produce propionate. Propionate acts in the liver to control energy management and energy storage.
The feijoas used to make Feiolix benefit from New Zealand’s elevated UV levels, which are at least 37% higher than similar latitudes in the northern hemisphere. More UV in the sunlight translates to increased levels of bioactives, which are produced as a defence mechanism in the plant’s leaves and fruit.
