Indena Phytosome® is a multi-talented technology platform, a stable and solid dispersion of botanicals or natural compounds into a 100% food-grade matrix based on lecithin, leveraging synergy to unlock their full power for health”.

THE ROLE OF INDENAS BOTANICALS FOR A BALANCED METABOLISM

Maintaining a balanced metabolism is a critical global health objective, particularly in combating multifactorial conditions like metabolic syndrome. At the forefront of this effort, Indena has developed two innovative botanical extracts, Berbevis® and Vazguard®, to support metabolic health.

Berbevis®, a berberine extract formulated with Indena Phytosome® optimizes peripheral blood metabolic profiles with a multi-targeted approach. Studies demonstrate Berbevis®‘s efficacy in optimizing insulin levels and significantly modulating blood sugar profiles, improving both blood glycemia and insulin sensitivity. Furthermore, recent clinical evidences confirm Berbevis®‘s positive impact on blood lipid profiles in individuals with borderline hyperlipidemia, effectively modulating total cholesterol, triglycerides, and HDL levels, while supporting healthy body composition.

Vazguard®, a standardized bergamot extract, also formulated with Indena Phytosome®, effectively addresses metabolic syndrome challenges. Its enhanced bioavailability supports healthy management of visceral abdominal tissue, blood sugar levels, and cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Backed by scientific evidence, both Berbevis® and Vazguard® offer comprehensive support for various metabolic health parameters, demonstrating Indena’s commitment to developing natural solutions for optimal well-being.

TACKLING BRAIN & EMOTIONAL HEALTH CHALLENGES: INDENA OFFERS NATURAL SOLUTIONS

Optimal mental acuity and focus are crucial for success in all aspects of life, from athletic endeavors and academic pursuits to overall health and well-being. Recognizing this essential need, Indena has identified a range of high-quality extracts able to enhance cognitive function and support mental clarity.

“People of all ages are increasingly concerned about maintaining optimal brain health – says Serena Tongiani, Chief Portfolio Officer at Indena -. Young people face constant distractions, adults juggle demanding, fast-paced lives, and seniors experience age-related cognitive decline. These challenges can significantly impact emotional well-being and mental balance. However, the botanical kingdom offers a wealth of resources to naturally enhance mental acuity and emotional well-being. By joining the power of science and ensuring the highest quality standards, Indena has developed premium ingredients scientifically proven to improve cognitive function and support emotional health”.

Indena’s products designed to support brain health are three powerful extracts: Virtiva® Plus, Enovita®, and Mirtoselect®.

Virtiva® Plus combines standardized ginkgo biloba extract with phosphatidylserine, a key brain phospholipid, to synergistically enhance memory, learning, vocabulary, and concentration. Enovita®, an innovative grape seed extract, offers dual benefits for cardiovascular and mental health. It has been shown to improve both endothelial

function and mood regulation, effectively combating stress. Mirtoselect®, a unique bilberry extract standardized to contain over 36% anthocyanins, boasts extensive scientific validation in human studies for its positive impact on vascular and eye health.

Building on the proven benefits of these extracts for microcirculation, vascular health, and eye health, Indena is currently conducting new research to explore their potential cognitive benefits, particularly in areas like memory, concentration, and visual acuity.

Brain health and emotional well-being are intrinsically linked, and Indena recognizes this connection with its innovative product, Relissa®. This health food ingredient maximizes the power of Melissa officinalis, commonly known as lemon balm, and enhances its bioavailability through Indena Phytosome® technology platform. This unique formulation optimizes the absorption of lemon balm’s active compounds, hydroxycinnamic and rosmarinic acids, in gastrointestinal fluids.

Relissa® stands out as a standardized, reliable, and melatonin-free solution for promoting restful sleep and combating daily stress. Unlike traditional lemon balm supplements, Relissa® provides precise quantification and formulation of its key active compounds, ensuring consistent efficacy. Recent clinical studies demonstrate Relissa®‘s ability to significantly improve sleep quality, mood, emotional balance, mental health, and overall quality of life.

MORE ENERGY WITH INDENAS UBIQSOME®

Among the products Indena’ll show at Supply Side West 2024 is Ubiqsome®, its CoQ10 formulation enhanced by Indena Phytosome®, which significantly improves the bioabsorption of this vital cofactor, overcoming the limitations of traditional CoQ10 supplements.

One of the key challenges with CoQ10 is its poor oral bioavailability and limited uptake by muscle cells due to its high molecular weight and low water solubility. Indena Phytosome® technology addresses this issue by optimizing absorption and delivery to even the most challenging cells and tissues.

That’s why Ubiqsome® is the first CoQ10 formulation to be successfully tracked to its target destination – the interior of cells where it plays a crucial role in energy production. This targeted delivery ensures maximum efficacy and optimal utilization by the body.

Moreover a recent independent study demonstrates that Ubiqsome® effectively improves physical performance in older adults with statin-associated asthenia.

Indena is deeply committed to sustainability, aligning its operations with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. From the sourcing of raw materials to production and marketing, Indena prioritizes environmentally responsible practices. This includes minimizing environmental impact, utilizing renewable energy sources, and actively contributing to a more circular economy.
