Ester-C® Calcium Ascorbate -Threonate was discovered back in the early 80s, when its inventor, an ever-curious doctor and scientist set out on a quest for the first stomach-friendly Vitamin. The result of his research is what we know today as Ester-C®, a unique form of Vitamin C.

Clinical studies show that Ester-C® increases vitamin C levels in white blood cells, which are essential part of the immune system. Ester-C® stays in the body longer than regular vitamin C, up to 24 hours. The naturally occurring metabolites in the formula are the reason why it lasts longer than generic Vitamin C. Ester-C® has neutral pH, therefore designed to be non-acidic so it can be taken all year long and in a variety of application and formats. All the EFSA Claims for Vitamin C can be used for Ester-C®, with the benefits and advantages of this patented ingredient.

A recent study showed that the reduction in hedonic hunger, which we often refer to as craving sugar and unhealthy foods, is a particularly strong effect of thylakoids: the main active compound found in Appethyl®.

 Appethyl® is made 100% from spinach, which is carefully processed to preserve all its benefits and in particular thylakoids.

Appethyl® has been clinically-tested to show numerous benefits including significant reduction of hunger and cravings by slowing down digestion.

“Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Capsule Longvida® Optimized Curcumin (solid lipid curcumin particles) in knee osteoarthritis: a pilot clinical study” is the title of the latest publication about Longvida® in the Journal of Inflammation Research.

The independent double-blind, placebo-controlled, human clinical trial demonstrated that oral administration of Longvida® (400mg twice a day) was found to be effective and safe in alleviating symptoms in patients suffering from knee osteoarthritis when administered for 90 days. This improvement was comparable to sub-therapeutic doses of ibuprofen. Significant improvements in VAS and WOMAC scores compared to baseline were observed. Longvida® was found to be “faster acting” in providing “pain relief” compared to ibuprofen in the first 30 days. No serious adverse events were reported, therefore this study further confirms the safety of Longvida®.

We are pleased to announce that Longvida® has received recognition by winning NutraIngredients-USA Award “Nutrition Research Project of the Year” for their research “Longvida’s Retinal Amyloid Pathology and Proof-of-Concept Imaging Clinical Trial with Longvida Optimized Curcumin”. This category rewards the most innovative and impactful nutrition research projects pushing the boundaries of nutritional science.

 When presenting the award, Dr. Stephen Daniells, PhD, Editor-in-Chief of NutraIngredients-USA explained on the behalf of the judges that the “entry really stood out for its combination of a nutrition intervention (curcumin) with industry-changing technology to potentially provide a low-cost, non-invasive technique to pre-screen at-risk populations using high-resolution imaging of a person’s amyloid-beta burden.” He went on to explain that the panel of judges appreciated that “the research was performed by an impressive team of academic institutions and industry, supported by peer-reviewed publications”.

Clinical research indicates that Bacognize® may offer a broad array of benefits for cognitive health linked to major neuroprotective mechanisms including neurotransmitter receptor (serotonin) binding activity. This is thanks to its natural spectrum standardization to specific bacopa glycosides, tested and confirmed for serotonin receptor activity.Bacognize® has 3 human clinical studies and 3 preclinical studies for memory, mood, and focus and can be used in daily life or specifically in sports to help focus without using stimulants.  Clinical research is available from our Bacognize® dedicated page.

Furthermore, research suggests that proprietary Bacognize® extract may help to both promote better quality of sleep and support the regulation of sleep cycles by interacting with serotonin receptors, helping to alleviate stress, and providing antioxidation benefits.

A recent study showed how Pomella® pomegranate extract, ranked highest in antioxidant activity across a number of assays including ORAC, TEAC, FRAP and DPPH compared to 26 other antioxidant products. Pomegranate supplements (Pomella®) with the highest content of punicalagins showed high antioxidant activity, whereas those high in ellagic acid showed the lowest.

Furthermore, in another study Pomella® was shown to be effective at protecting human skin fibroblasts from cell death following UVA an UVB exposure, while increasing the intracellular antioxidant capacity, and reducing generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) after UV exposure. More infomation about Pomella® and its potential for skin health can be found in the poster displayed at Vitafoods this year, available for download here.

Pomella® extract is a patented, clinically researched pomegranate extract standardized to punicalagins along with the natural spectrum of pomegranate fruit polyphenols. For more information watch the latest Pomella® video  or visit our dedicated product page.
