Ingredients By Nature has announced the launch of its newest antioxidant ingredient, Blussel, a marine-rich blue mussel powder (Mytilus chilensis) for human and animal nutrition.
The ingredient will be featured by Ingredients By Nature in Las Vegas at SupplySide Global 2025.
Blussel offers multifunctional nutrition sourced from whole-food marine ingredients.
It is a potent source of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids, high in protein and contains naturally occurring essential vitamins and minerals.
This sustainable and fully traceable ingredient is sourced from the waters of southern Chile.
Research shows that lipped mussels can support a healthy inflammatory response, enhance immune health, promote bone and joint health, aid digestion, boost cognitive function and help regulate mood.
Blussel is suitable for various applications, including capsules, softgels, powders, bars, chews, gummies, soups and more.
“We’re thrilled to introduce Blussel at SupplySide Global to quality brands in every retail channel," said Rob Brewster, President at IBN.
"Its nutrient density, versatility and sustainable sourcing make it an ideal solution for brands looking to enhance formulations for both human and pet nutrition."
“This launch underscores our commitment to scientifically supported, responsibly sourced ingredients that deliver multifunctional benefits.”
For the pet nutrition industry, Blussel provides a nutrient-dense, cost-effective (compared with the green-lipped mussel) and reliable supply that meets the demand for human-grade nutrition in the pet food industry.
It supports a healthy inflammatory response, digestive health, bone & joint health and immune health.
“Partnering with Ingredients By Nature to launch Blussel is an exciting step for PetBeing,” said Alon Rosenberg, CEO.
“With its human-grade quality, multifunctional benefits and sustainable sourcing, Blussel offers brands a powerful, versatile ingredient to elevate both human and pet nutrition formulations.”
At SupplySide Global, Ingredients By Nature will also showcase its recently published clinical data on its
award-winning citrus flavonoid ingredient, Eriomin, as well as its portfolio of citrus flavonoids, Brewster
Probiotics and other products.
