Nutraceuticals may be used to improve health, delay the aging process, help prevent chronic disease, increase life expectancy, or support the structure or function of the body.

Our UBN brain health formulations have been in development for more than 20 years, over which time its effects have been supported by third-party research studies. Our Products Heart & Immune Health Our products which are intended to promote heart and immune health have been developed by our BergaMetsubsidiary.

Our Citrus Bergamot SuperFruitvarietal, with its 47% BPF, has a high concentration
