Ashland highlights GPM™ fermented nutrients available in organic, non-GMO*, and soy-free options at SupplySide West in Las Vegas, NV

Wilmington, Del., October 25, 2023 - Ashland will highlight GPM^™ vitamins and minerals produced from a nutrient-dense broth that is cultured, converted, and bio-transformed by microorganisms (yeast and/or probiotics) during the SupplySide West exhibition in Las Vegas, October 23-27, 2023.

Ashland fermented nutrients are more bioavailable versus the comparable USP nutrients* and incorporating fermented nutrients into their supplement offering is an excellent way for customers to differentiate their product offering and take advantage of a growing trend in the wellness space.

“GPM^™ nutrients are part of a whole food matrix and are gentle on the stomach and made with a patented process.” said Maxine Weber, global marketing director, “Ashland’s new innovations are gluten free, non-GMO and Kosher certified. We are one of the only suppliers to offer organic fermented nutrients.”

Ashland is committed to bringing products to the market that meet consumers’ growing demands for organic, natural and/or sustainable products. In addition to our fermented nutrients, Ashland also offers the following ingredients:
