RELEEESE, an innovative new functional food brand backed by the scientific research of Dr Johannes Coy, has announced its UK debut with the launch of RELEEESE Chocolate – a premium milk chocolate bar crafted with a carefully selected blend of naturally derived, lower glycaemic sugars.
Made from nature, backed by science, RELEEESE takes a genuinely different approach to sweetness. Rather than relying on conventional sucrose, every product is formulated using naturally derived sugars with a lower glycaemic index – some of which carry independently authorised EU and UK health claims. The result is a chocolate that delivers the same rich, indulgent taste you expect, made with ingredients you can feel good about.
RELEEESE is the official licensee of the Intelligent Sugar Expert Dr Coy formulation, developed by Dr Johannes Coy – a German molecular biologist and cancer researcher best known for his discovery of the TKTL1 gene, a breakthrough in understanding how cells metabolise sugar and fuel growth. His research into TKTL1 and sugar metabolism led to the development of a unique approach to sugar formulation that underpins every RELEEESE product.
RELEEESE MILK CHOCOLATE (£29.99 for a box of 10): A rich and creamy chocolate bar combining carefully selected premium ingredients, with cutting-edge nutrition, RELEEESE is the world’s first chocolate to combine Tagatose and Galactose sugars, to support stable blood sugar levels and promote tooth health.
Both Tagatose and Galactose sugars occur naturally in milk, and have a significantly lower glycaemic index than conventional sucrose, that is traditionally used in chocolate.
RELEEESE MILK CHOCOLATE is high in fibre and Vitamin E and also contains added soluble fibre from corn, which supports gut health via nourishing beneficial bacteria.
RELEEESE Chocolate is now available to shoppers via the RELEEESE website with RELEEESE & Bake and RELEEESE Everyday sugar mixtures due to also launch later in the year.
