Farsoon, Huaxiang & LEHVOSS Group: A joint effort to manufacture safety goggles to fight COVID-19
- 03 April 2020
With a solid background in medical 3D printing, Huaxiang experts have been able to quickly develop, optimize and validate safety goggles within 10 days, and produce thousands of pairs of products using the Farsoon 403P production polymer systems. The main goggle frames are produced with Farsoon FS3300PA material, which offers good strength and durability; the sealing rings are made with LUVOSINT TPU material from LEHVOSS, with excellent elongation and flexibility, which ensure a better fit and improved sealing protection compared to traditional PC material.
On March 18th, the first batch of 1000 sets of 3D printed medical safety goggles were donated to the Red Cross Society of China. At the end of March, a second batch was produced and donated to domestic and overseas countries. Last week, Farsoon was contacted by an Italian hospital requiring safety goggles and, with the help of Italian service bureau Prosilas Rapid Prototyping, they will be produced locally with LUVOSINT TPU material from LEHVOSS.
EpiCor® and the role of Postbiotics on Immune Health
- Featuring an Inteview by Nutritional Outlook to Dr Justin Green, Scientific Director Embria Health Sciences
- 19 March 2020
EpiCor® is a whole food fermentate, a postbiotic ingredient clinically shown to support the immune system and modulate and benefit the gut microbiota.
Postbiotics are functional compounds, generated in a matrix during fermentation, which may be used to promote health. The term postbiotics can be considered an umbrella term for synonyms and related terms of microbial fermentation components1.
Backed by over 75 years of fermentation expertise, EpiCor® is made through a natural proprietary fermentation process that provides proteins, fibre, polyphenols, vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, beta-glucans and other valuable metabolites, that work together to support the immune system.
Our Plant Based Solutions for Immune Health

In addition to this, we also offer Citrus Bioflavonoids, Echinacea Extract, Rosehip Extract and other well-known ingredients used in immunes support formulations. Furthermore, we have a range of high quality minerals from synthetic sources. We can also provide a scientifically proven, patented form of ascorbic acid, please contact us to have details.
PureSea® for Weight & Blood Sugar Management
- New Science Brief available for download
- 16 March 2020
PureSea® seaweed contains specific compounds (polyphenols and polysaccharides) that have been shown to impact both fat absorption and blood glucose release. Additionally, the natural iodine levels in PureSea® allow for EFSA health claims, including supporting high energy yield metabolism, which is a powerful statement when using on weight management products.
Extensive research on seaweed extracts - alginates (polysaccharides) – has demonstrated an impact on reducing fat absorption through enzyme inhibition. Furthermore, the polyphenols in PureSea® have shown to inhibit alpha-glucosidase enzymes, which are responsible for the digestion of carbohydrates and release of glucose to the blood, thus slowing the release of sugars to the blood and potentially reducing the glycemic response when used in or taken with food.
Ingredient Highlight: Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)
- 15 March 2020
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is an endogenous fatty acid amide made inside the body when necessary. It is also a member of the extended endocannabinoid family and ligands at non-cannabinoid peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors. Since its discovery in 1954 there have been a good amount of studies aimed to demonstrate its role in a variety of biological functions related to chronic pain and inflammation.
PEA has been used in several controlled studies focused on the management of chronic pain among adult patients with different underlying clinical conditions. Some of these studies can be viewed here or in a recent scoping review available here. These are only a selection from the broad research done on this fatty acid amide.
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is available in powder from LEHVOSS Nutrition. Visit our dedicated page to download the technical specification or contact us for more details.
New study finds OptiMSM® reduces visual signs of skin aging, even in low doses.
- 27 February 2020
Researchers studying the effects of nutritional supplements on skin health have further confirmation that OptiMSM® may reduce visible signs of skin aging. According to a recent study published in the February issue of the International Journal for Vitamin and Nutrition Research, authors used a two-phase approach to show how OptiMSM® reduced visible signs of skin aging.
63 participants ingested either 1 or 3 grams of OptiMSM® over 16 weeks. Results were judged using subject self-assessment of wrinkles and skin texture, expert clinical grading, and instrumental measurement and analysis.
Pomegranate and Carotenoids: The perfect combination for skin health?
- 26 February 2020
In a scientific study, Pomella® pomegranate extract was shown to be effective at protecting human skin fibroblasts from cell death following UVA and UVB exposure while increasing the intracellular antioxidant capacity after UV exposure. Punicalagins and metabolites in Pomella® show potent anti-glycative effects, including collagen glycation.
XanMax®, a unique combination of lutein with varying levels of zeaxanthin, may contribute in boosting the anti-oxidant body defense system that protects from environmentally induced skin damage.
