So as to always have a functional chewing gum at hand to address needs that we want to satisfy or nutritional deficiencies that we may suffer in the course of life.

How Biotech NTP chewing gum functional supplements are made

Traditional chewing gums are usually made using the extrusion technique, a working method that exploits high temperatures to obtain the final product.

For NTP Biotech nutraceuticals in the chewing gum format, production instead takes place with a new method that exploits cold compression. In this way the active components contained within maintain their health characteristics. Extracts, minerals and vitamins would not remain intact at high temperatures, because they are thermolabile. With cold processing, on the other hand, effectiveness is guaranteed.

The low temperature direct compression technology also allows us to offer chewable food supplements with a unique and irresistible taste. In addition to a rapid release of the active components, which begin to circulate in the body a few minutes after taking them, thanks to chewing which is able to convey the nutrients better and more quickly. The absorption of nutraceuticals already takes place in the mouth, thanks to the buccal mucosa. And it doesn't start after ingestion and passage through the gastro-intestinal tract, as happens with traditional supplementation.

Why use food supplements in the form of functional chewing gum

Functional chewing gums are recommended for those who want to integrate their diet in an easy and immediate way, with active components that immediately begin to perform their function to help the body stay healthy. The format is practical and comfortable and you don't need water to take it.
Without forgetting that the working methodology allows you to keep intact all the nutritional power of the elements that make up the different products of the NTP Biotech chewing gum range.
