As part of our new PlantNutra® range, we are pleased to introduce Holy Basil as a signature ingredient by Verdure Sciences® (the makers of Longvida®).
Holy basil is often used in adaptogenic solutions targeting wellbeing, promoting calming attributes, alleviating stress, and offering restorative benefits for a balanced mood, emotional wellbeing and mental vitality. Therefore we feel it may be an interesting ingredient for a synergetic combination with Ashwagandha, Restoridyn®, Longvida® or Bacognize®.
In Ayurveda, holy basil is a rasayana. Rasayanas are said to promote homeostasis, bring the body into balance, and restore the body's vitality.

As part of our PlantNutra® range, we are pleased to introduce ashwagandha as a high quality, signature ingredient by Verdure Sciences® (the makers of Longvida®) standardised to 1.5% total withanolides from the roots.
With various studies supporting multiple benefits, ashwagandha is also known in Ayurveda as a natural adaptogen. These studies show that Ashwagandha or Withania somnifera (WS) has long been sought after for many uses, among them being the ability to promote energy, memory, and strength, as well as provide potent antioxidant activity and offer the ability to improve the body’s defences through improving cell-mediated immunity.

One of the most important contributions seaweed makes to the environment is through a process called carbon sequestration.
Seaweed functions like other plant life in that it takes in carbon and releases oxygen, but does so on a much greater scale thanks to its high growth rates.
Kelp, for example, can grow by as much as 60cm in one day and soaks up as much as 600 million tonnes of carbon every year.1 Once carbon dioxide is locked within the seaweed, it can be harvested for use or stored underground where it cannot negatively impact the climate.2

PureWay-C® is different from other forms of vitamin C because it includes naturally derived lipid metabolites and citrus bioflavonoids to enhance the uptake, distribution and release kinetics of ascorbic acid.
Research conducted (available on request) compared cellular uptake of several forms of vitamin C and found that two hours after intake, human T-lymphocyte treated with PureWay-C® contained higher vitamin C level than any other treatment group evaluated.

In addition to our well-known, clinically researched EpiCor® grade for food supplements, we are pleased to offer EpiCor® Pets for companion animals.
With five (5) studies specifically designed for dogs, EpiCor® Pets is a unique postbiotic ingredient for immune and microbiome support that delivers all the beneficial metabolites directly to the gut.
While prebiotics are the energy for the beneficial bacteria in the gut and probiotics are the live microorganisms that, once introduced into the gut are expected to remain alive to produce the beneficial metabolites, postbiotics deliver straight away the metabolites (produced through fermentation outside the body) to support the pet's overall health. All this, without stability issues or the necessity to rely on the gut microbiome.
Furthermore EpiCor® Pets is natural with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, it is non-animal derived and has a great palatability. For more information, please visit our EpiCor® Pets dedicated page or contact us.

A recently published study (2021) with Bacognize®, reported numerous findings in emotional and mental wellbeing, alertness, focus, impact on sleep, stress, and other quality of life markers.
The ability of Bacognize® to help with alertness and focus has been seen in previous clinical studies, including when subjects were under stressful test taking circumstances (Kumar et al, 2016)1. Previous studies also have looked at the mechanistic abilities of Bacognize® to interact on HT1a receptors associated with serotonin uptake. With this knowledge, researchers examined the ability of Bacognize® to act as an adaptogen, modulating the serotonin / melatonin pathways associated with alertness, focus, and a healthy circadian rhythm.

Tinofend® is a proprietary natural Tinospora cordifolia extract standardised to active polysaccharides, with a number of clinical studies showing positive benefits as a natural antihistamine, immune antihistamine and immune and adaptogenic support. Tinofend® extract is standardized to total bitters and total polysaccharides which, according to research, has shown potential in supporting a healthy immune response through impacts to the adaptive (learned/remembered response to specific pathogens) and innate (rapid response to microbes/pathogens) immune systems.
A scientific study demonstrated that Tinofend® significantly decreased all symptoms of allergic rhinitis and stimulated the activity of white blood cells, which regulate the immune response and reduced the number of eosinophils (immune cells that release histamine). Tinofend® offers an innovative, natural, plant based solution for seasonal allergies.
