Bionap unveils prickly pear extract for a “prebiotic revolution” in gut-brain and muscle axes

23 May 2024 — Bionap adds Odilia to its range of standardized botanical extracts of fruits and plants from the Mediterranean region. The powdered extract of the prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) juice is standardized in polysaccharides and piscidic acid and acts on the gut-brain and gut-muscle axes. 

Clinical research reveals Odilia’s support for gut homeostasis with prebiotic activity, gut mucosal barriers and overall health. The juice is derived from the prickly pear “leaves” or cladodes — leaf-like flattened stems.
