    Helaina is excited to share two articles recently published in the renowned Journal Food and Chemical Toxicology. The first, a review publication supports the safety of recombinant human lactoferrin as an ingredient. It demonstrates the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of lactoferrin (human and bovine) is well established. The animal and human safety data on recombinant human lactoferrin also support it is well tolerated without adverse effects on iron parameters.

Helaina’s safety plan was put together by scientists at Helaina and vetted by key scientific experts in immunology, toxicology/immunotoxicology, food ingredient risk assessment, and lactoferrin biology to meet GRAS requirement of general recognition. It addresses key safety questions regarding consuming effera™ as a food ingredient in the diet for adults. Study Link - https://lnkd.in/e35rgBDg Helaina is committed to advancing innovation and ensuring the safety of its novel ingredients. These publications highlight our dedication to research, transparency, and safety in product development.

    At Helaina, our highest priority is to provide human bioactive ingredients that are efficacious and safe for consumption. Our first protein is Effera™ Human Lactoferrin, which is traditionally found in human colostrum. We performed a 14-day in vivo rat study on Effera™ Human Lactoferrin compared to Bovine Lactoferrin. The administration of up to 138X the intended commercial dose of Effera™ once daily for 14 days was safe and well tolerated. Effera™ Human Lactoferrin offers high-quality, superior, sustainable, and effective benefits for formulation by its ability to optimize iron utilization at cellular levels. Effera™ Human Lactoferrin optimizes iron levels to support energy production, oxygen delivery, and red blood cell count. Effera™ Human Lactoferrin also plays an active role in maintaining a healthy immune system, supporting gut health, and promoting a thriving microbiome. Find out more about the study here: https://lnkd.in/ePC2uWhT Thanks to Ross Peterson, PhD, Carrie Zanon Malinczak, Anthony Clark, Roma Vishwanath-Deutsch, MS Bryce Ferraro and June Sass for their direct contributions to the paper. 📝
