Solveat

Solveat is a food technology company that develops functional food products by integrating herbal medicine compositions into everyday foods. The company's primary technology is a patent-pending botanical blend comprising eight herbs, including golden thread, Chinese foxglove, and Hawthorn berries, designed to support healthy blood sugar levels. Through microencapsulation technology, Solveat can incorporate these herbal formulations into various food products while maintaining the ingredients' bioactivity and masking their bitter taste. In vitro analysis demonstrated that the composition increased glucose uptake in muscle cells at levels comparable to insulin, with optimal results achieved at low doses. In November 2023, the company developed its first product prototype - a sugar-free dark chocolate bar sweetened with monk fruit - in collaboration with Israeli chocolatier Ornat Ltd. A preliminary clinical observation showed this chocolate reduced blood sugar levels by 10-24% in 10 out of 12 prediabetic participants. Founded in 2020, Solveat's platform approach aims to expand beyond blood sugar management to develop additional botanical formulations that can be incorporated into various food products such as snack bars, yogurts, crackers, and cookies.
