Csat®

Csat® is a science-based, inside-out ingredient developed for weight management, built on a proprietary carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) blend. It is standardized to ≥21.5% Sliminoids®, a unique complex of bioactive compounds including galactomannan, inositols, and gallic acid, identified and quantified through advanced analytical techniques such as UV, GC, and HPLC. This approach ensures a consistent composition and reliable batch-to-batch reproducibility. Csat® has been investigated for its role in supporting key metabolic pathways linked to weight management, including satiety, lipid metabolism, and glucose regulation. Its multi-target mechanism combines physical and metabolic effects, contributing to a more comprehensive approach to metabolic health. Galactomannan, its main fiber component, forms a viscous matrix in the gastrointestinal tract that helps increase satiety and modulate lipid absorption. In parallel, inositols support insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake, while gallic acid contributes to antioxidant defense in the context of metabolic imbalance. Recent research also highlights its interaction with the gut microbiome, showing increased production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), metabolites associated with metabolic signaling and appetite regulation. Thanks to its standardized composition, synergistic mechanism, and ease of formulation, Csat® enables the development of differentiated solutions in weight management and metabolic health—one of the fastest-growing categories in the nutraceutical market. A carob-based ingredient designed for brands looking to move beyond single-target solutions and address metabolic health through a more integrated, science-driven approach.
