Commercial & Market Potential
Maintaining a healthy diet is critical for human health and wellness. Laetose can reduce the glycemic index in foods by reducing sugar and calorie content, offering a valuable alternative in the U.S., where over $140 billion of sugar is consumed annually annually through food and beverages (U.S. Sugar Alliance). With diabetes a global concern and billions spent annually on treatment, Laetose shows the potential to inhibit tumor necrosis factor alpha, making it a promising candidate for pharmaceuticals to slow disease progression.
