Tasty Functional Foods
About us:
Vivente Tasty Functional Foods is the first mexican
brand offering a wide selection of functional
foods in the market
Objective of the Vivente Brand
To offer functional foods from soluble fibers derived
from the blue agave (Metlin ® and Metlos ®), known
for their prebiotic effect that contributes to improve
public health by preventing and controlling obesity
and diabetes as well as meeting the growing
demand of larger population groups seeking for
healthier foods.
What is a functional food?
• Because eating is also a
way to regain or
maintain health.
Characteristics of the products:
• The nutritional equivalence in each of
these products related to the
recommended daily intake of soluble
fiber provides a different way of
maintaining a balanced diet.
• Since the products are reduced in fat,
calories and sugar or with total absence
of added sugar, they are suitable for
anyone seeking a healthier lifestyle.
Characteristics of the products:
A healthy diet includes 30 to 35
g of fiber daily, of which 1/4
should be soluble.
All our products have been
enriched with Metlin ®, a
soluble organic dietary fiber
with prebiotic effects.
¿What is Metlin®?
It is an organic soluble fiber extracted from the blue agave that our organism
is not able to digest:
Benefits:
No calories
Fortifies intestinal flora
Promotes a healthy digestive system
Improves calcium and magnesium absortion. calcio y magnesio
Prevents gastrointestinal infections.
Immune system fortification.
Prebiotic effect
Glycemic Index = Zero
Preferred food for bifidobacteria and
lactobacillies
Zero calories
• Metlin ® is made up of chains of fructose that since
the human body does not have the necessary
enzymes to digest this fructose, they
• do not provide energy to your body.
• Due to its characteristics, it can be
• used as a substitute for fat.
•
Metlin® and intestinal flora
The intestinal flora can be alter due to several external
factors such as a change in our feeding habits, parasite
infections and long lasting antibiotic treatments
Metlin®, by reaching intact
to the intestine, it
stimulates the growth
and activity of the
intestinal flora, promoting
the organism´s health.
Making it a
PREBIOTIC.
Metlin® and the
absorption of minerals
Metlin® has shown to improve the absorption of minerals like Calcium
and Magnesium.
Calcium is necessary for the
formation and maintenance
of bones and teeth as well as
several metabolic functions

Traditional Organic Maguey
Honey
 Maguey honey is a natural fructose
sweetener extracted from Mexico’s
Maguey plant. (agave salmiana)
 Traditionally, the Native Americans of
Mexico gathered the sweet juice,
“aguamiel”, from several varieties of
agave. They also used it as a sweetener,
for special celebratory beverages
 Aguamiel (honey water) is the juice
that the plant “prepares” to feed the
quiote. It is full of nutrients, as it
contains large amounts of
carbohydrates, Fructans, vitamins and
aminoacids.
Traditional Organic Maguey
Honey
If this juice is vaporated (boiling to
remove the water) the traditional
maguey honey is obtained. We call
this product Ut Fih that means in
Ñañu (a native language) : sweet
honey or sweet honeywater.
Ut fih is added with Metlin ®,
therefore it has a high soluble fiber
content.

Functional Organic agave Syrup
 The agave syrup is obtained using the juice of the agave plant which
contains fructans and by a Biotechnology process we hidrolize this fructans into
fructose an dextrose and remove most salts and aminoacids, evaporating at a
max temperature of 45°C
This makes our product very clear, sweet and mild flavored, making it ideal
as a sweetener
As a result from the mixture of
Metlin ® (organic agave soluble
fiber with our organic agave Syrup
we are able to offer a functional
sweetener enriched with fiber content
and prebiotic properties named:
Vivente
Functional Organic agave Syrup
Coni
 Because Agave syrup is high in fructose, it enjoys all the
benefits which continue to make fructose a preferred
sweetening agent
 It is sweeter than refined sugar (approximately 1.4
times sweeter, in fact, fructose offers an equivalent
sweetness for nearly half the amount of carbohydrate
calories
 Fructose does not stimulate digestive insulin secretion
as do other sugars. It does not create a "sugar rush".

Glycemic Index
This is a relatively new concept which can be important from a metabolic standpoint, especially to
diabetics, along with athletes and grossly overweight individuals.
The index is an indicator as to how much your blood sugar increases in 2-3 hours after specific food
consumption. Most if not all carbohydrates are normally metabolized into the simple carbohydrate
glucose, which in the glycemic index concept is arbitrarily assigned a value of 100. As a result, the
higher a glycemic index food number is, the faster it raises your blood sugar level.
 Foods or ingredients with glycemic index numbers close to or above 100 present some significant
health issues to diabetics.
 According to results provided by The Glycemic Index Laboratories in December 2005, Nekutli’s
Agave Syrup was found to have a glycemic index of 31.9. Using the classification of Brand-Miller, the
product falls into the “Low GI category” (less than 55).
