The 2025 Make Our Children Healthy Again strategy included a range of initiatives for reductions in ultra-processed foods (UPFs), synthetic colors, and added sugars.</p><p>With manufacturers facing a growing imperative to reformulate, the impact of MAHA will be a major focus at IFT First. The event will feature several sessions on the changing regulatory landscape with a senior government official among the speakers.</p><p>Exhibiting at Booth #4821, Prosur will demonstrate how its expertise in clean and clear label solutions can help manufacturers succeed in the MAHA environment. The food-biotech pioneer launched the first commercial nitrite eliminator for meat in 2015, and today provides natural and clean-label solutions across all food and beverage categories.</p><p>The Prosur Get It Natural<sup>&trade; </sup>Toolbox is a ready-to-use suite of multifunctional ingredients based on the principle of &ldquo;Protecting food with Food&rdquo;. Leveraging the power of natural ingredient systems, it helps manufacturers drop unwanted chemicals and create great-tasting products with clearer labels.</p><p>The proven, cost-effective solutions in the toolbox are based on a range of nature-powered technologies including chemical elimination; next-level fermentation (crafted from upcycled superfoods through gentle water infusion); and smarter sweetener systems. They can be used in applications including meat, dairy, beverages, bakery and confectionery.</p><p>Simon Claessens, Global Director, Sales &amp; Business Development at Prosur, said: &ldquo;MAHA has turbo-charged the clear and clean label movements, which were already gathering pace because of consumer preferences. As a result, it&rsquo;s never been more important to ensure that your products taste great, are free from synthetic additives, and carry easy-to-understand labels. The new regulatory landscape has created challenges, but there are also real opportunities to get ahead of the game by future-proofing products using natural, and cost-effective ingredients that eliminate chemical dependency. At Prosur, we&rsquo;re proud to have been at the forefront of the real food and clean label movements, and we&rsquo;re excited to share our expertise at IFT First.&rdquo;</p><p><strong>For more information or to arrange an interview at the event, contact:</strong></p><p>Steve Harman, Ingredient Communications<br>\u200bTel: +44 (0)7538 118079 | Email: <a href=\"mailto:steve@ingredientcommunications.com\">steve@ingredientcommunications.com</a> </p><p><strong>About Prosur </strong></p><p>Founded in 1965, Prosur is a food-biotech pioneer, providing the food industry with science-backed, future-proof solutions to help them improve consumers&rsquo; lives by making health and </p><p>natural food more accessible.
