We are delighted to present findings from two recent (2025) clinical studies demonstrating the benefits of HAPLEX® Plus—a high-purity, food-grade hyaluronic acid supplement—in promoting skin and overall wellness for women. Both studies highlight HAPLEX® Plus’s ability to enhance skin elasticity, moisture, and brightness, as well as support systemic health and well-being.
In the first published study1, 36 women (30-60 years) with skin dryness and sagging received 100mg or 150mg of HAPLEX® Plus daily for 8 weeks.
Both groups showed significant improvements in skin elasticity and moisture, reduced wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, and enhanced skin brightness and texture.

Research indicates that iodine plays a crucial role in supporting energy and endurance, vital for athletes and those engaged in physical activity. Iodine Deficiency is becoming increasingly common¹, particularly among those following plant-based or dairy-free diets and is further worsened by iodine loss through sweat during exercise². Iodine is essential in the production of thyroid hormones which help regulate metabolism, protein synthesis, and energy production. These functions are vital for athletes as they support the body's ability to create and use energy efficiently, making iodine a key component for sports performance and a “must have” in protein-based nutritional blends.
PureSea® Protect is a microencapsulated seaweed ingredient, standardised to natural iodine, offering all the nutritional benefits of the acclaimed Gold-Standard PureSea® seaweed.

Unlike standard forms of CoQ10 that require fats for absorption, PureWay™ Q10 uses true liposomal technology to deliver enhanced cellular uptake and water dispersibility. This makes it ideal for use in capsules, tablets and innovative delivery formats such as liquid sachets, effervescent powders, gummies and more!
New research (August 2025) has shown that PureWay™ Q10 achieves significantly better cellular uptake compared to non-liposomal CoQ10. The research also shows that PureWay™ Q10 provides stronger protection against oxidative stress, enhanced ATP production, and offers greater support for cellular functions. Furthermore, the findings of this research also revealed that PureWay™ Q10 delivers a faster and more effective neuronal response (within just 6 hours), along with improved ATP production.

Cutting-Edge 2025 research reveals how Benicaros® supports gut, immune, and barrier health. The study evaluated its effects on microbiota composition, metabolic activity, immune cell activation, and overall gut health outcomes1.
Results showed a rapid prebiotic effect, with levels of Bifidobacteria (beneficial bacteria linked to health) rising significantly by week three.
The data also supported earlier findings of innate immune training through priming of dendritic cells (body immune ‘scouts’ that help detect and respond to threats). Subjects experienced improved microbiota balance and enhanced stool consistency, even among those already consuming fibre-rich diets. The supplement was well tolerated by all Participants.
