Many people don’t get all the nutrients their bodies need from diet alone, which is why multivitamins are so important for overall well-being. Among these nutrients, iodine stands out as essential for thyroid function and is one of Nestlé’s global ‘big four’ micronutrients. Yet around 68% of the world’s population is deficient¹, putting many at risk of hypothyroidism, a condition linked to weight gain, fatigue, dry skin, brittle hair, and more².
Despite its importance, iodine is often missing from multivitamin formulations. PureSea® Protect, the world’s first microencapsulated seaweed, was created to blend easily into multiple delivery formats and disperse well in water, all without the typical taste or aroma of seaweed.

The human gut is where 80% of the immune system resides and is home to trillions of microbes that influence nearly every aspect of health and wellness. These microbes form a dynamic ecosystem known as the gut microbiome, which is unique to each individual.
What people eat plays a crucial role in shaping this microbiome. To thrive, these microbes need fuel, commonly known as prebiotics. Enter Benicaros®: a patented, upcycled “precision prebiotic” fibre from carrot pomace, and winner for Microbiome Ingredient of the Year.
Research shows it trains the innate immune system for smarter, faster, and stronger responses while constantly stimulating beneficial gut bacteria and their metabolites across every type of gut ecosystem.

Zooca® Calanus® Oil is naturally rich in astaxanthin and is the only marine lipid known to contain significant amounts of marine policosanols—typically 10 times more than what is found in standard policosanol supplements.
These policosanols are naturally bound to the oil’s fatty acids and form wax esters, known to support digestion and absorption. Astaxanthin gives the oil its distinct red colour and is known for the ability to prevent the oxidation of fatty acids. In Zooca® Calanus® Oil, the natural astaxanthin derived from Calanus finmarchicus plays a vital role in maintaining the oil’s long-lasting quality and stability.
With over 20 years of research, this unique, sustainable, Novel Food-approved oil offers a range of benefits, particularly for metabolic health and healthy aging.
