The Scoular Company’s Food Ingredients Group, Minneapolis, MN, has been selected as the exclusive distributor of nutricosmetic ingredient Naticol in the U.S.. Used as an ingredient in women’s anti-aging products, Naticol is a marine collagen peptide produced by French manufacturer Weishardt. Created from fish skins and scales, marine hydrolyzed collagen is shown to have several nutritional and health benefits related to anti-aging according to a whitepaper recently released by Weishardt and The Scoular Company. According to Anne Brown, senior manager of Scoular’s Food Ingredients Group,“Naticolworks well in a variety of applications beyond the traditional dietary capsule or tablet. Naticol is a hydrolyzed collagen peptide, one of the few protein ingredients that dissolves and becomes clear in water.”
