Preventive food concepts
for sustainable health
Our business: Scientifically proven preventive food concepts that make healthy lifestyle-change easier.
Aventure develops attractive food concepts with proven preventive properties that contribute to sustainable health and better life. While healthcare systems are cracking under the burden of lifestyle related diseases, we represent a change in paradigm, where prevention and protection can reduce the need for medical treatment and pharmaceuticals. Our business operates through three distinct business areas, briefly presented below.
Beverages for blood sugar balance
Aventure is the developer of Good Idea – the world’s first blood sugar-balancing sparkling water. By reducing the post-meal blood glucose response, this easy-to-adopt product eliminates one of the main risk factors behind obesity, type-2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
Pro- and postbiotics for metabolic health
Aventure AB’s patented bacteria, Prevotella copri, enhances food products with pro- and postbiotic benefits. Typical effects include improved blood sugar control, strengthened immune system, reduced inflammation, improved weight management, and enhanced nutrient absorption, ideal for versatile applications in various foods and supplements to support gut health and overall wellness.
Delicious and convenient!
For food to have a positive impact on health, it must be not only nutritious but also convenient and enjoyable to eat on a regular basis. In other words, food that is not delicious will not suffice. At Aventure, we focus on incorporating scientifically proven health benefits into tasty and appealing food products. Our aim is to create products that are easy for people to adopt and integrate into their daily lives.
Addressing real challenges
According to the Global Burden of Disease report by the World Health Organization (WHO), two of the top three* significant food-related causes of disease and mortality are the insufficient consumption of whole grains/fiber and the suboptimal intake of fruits. Aventure recognizes these challenges and offers convenient food concepts that incorporate whole grains, fruits, and berries individually, as well as in delicious combinations.
* Overconsumption of sodium (1), Underconsumption of whole grain(2), fruit (3).
Utilizing nature’s own recipes
At Aventure, we harness the natural properties of raw materials such as berries, cereals, and healthy bacteria to develop food products that have scientifically proven preventive health effects. Our approach allows us to adhere to a ”clean label” philosophy, with minimal use of additives. Our R&D process is grounded in a thorough understanding of human metabolism to ensure that our products are both effective and safe.

Our resources:

Our promise:
Scientifically
proven effects
The positive health effects, preventive properties, and nutritional value of our products and concepts are specified and proven before launch.
When applicable, official health claims (issued by, e.g., EFSA and the FDA) are applied to give both Aventure and its B2B customers business advantages built on a reliable quality seal.
Aventure was co-founded by two brothers and serial entrepreneurs Rickard and Björn Öste.
Rickard has a background in food chemistry, nutrition, and is also an inventor, while Björn had a successful career in the software industry before teaming up with his brother in the late 1990s. The two of them started Oatly, the original oat drink producer. Aventure and its subsidiaries follow the same business model as Oatly, which involves creating multidisciplinary teams to develop innovative food products with unique properties, recognizing the potential for commercial success.
Success and
innovation are in
our DNA
