Cococin® is a freeze-dried extract from tender coconut developed by Sabinsa, for use in cosmetics (scarring, hair and dander, improving telogenesis to anagenesis), nutra cosmetic or nutrition (nutrients for sports drinks or supplements drinks). Coconut water has been also used in the tropics as a nutritive and rehydrating agent to restore electrolyte balance in cases of diarrhea.

Becarre Natural Pomegranate P40P has a long history of use in supporting health. The scientific community is currently evaluating the possible effects of supplementing the diet with pomegranate (extracts, juices). Its main bioactive ingredients (ellagic acid and punicalagins) have shown positive effects in in vitro and animal models. Early clinical investigations have revealed promising results in cardiovascular and oncologic disease but more data are needed to fully evaluate its health benefits. Randomized controlled trials are currently being conducted or assessed.

Rhodiola® is a powerful adaptogen that produces a non-specific state of adaptation and resistance in the body to physical, emotional and environmental stress. Rhodiolife® is experiential, a distinct advantage over other adaptogens. Even a single dose provides tangible activation of mental energy and improved focus.

Becarre Natural Fucoxanthin [U-HPLC] is a carotenoid (non-provitamin A type) present in several brown algae, in particular wakame (Undaria pinnatífida, seaweed used in Japanese cuisine) or Laminaria japonica. As with Rhodiola, Nektium has developed specific partnerships for the supply of a quality raw material (notably compliance with heavy metals and other contaminants, as well as iodine and arsenic). Nektium produces as standard the 1% and 5% fucoxanthin grades analyzed by HPLC (oil), and the 10% UV grade (UV method developed and validated to confirm that it is indeed the fucoxanthin that is measured).

Xymenynic acid is a long-chain acetylenic fatty acid, extracted from seed oil of the Santalaceae family, or from the fruit kernels of the Santalum obtusifolium. Santalum album, or Indian sandalwood or white santal in french, is a small tropical tree, primary source of sandalwood and the derived oil.
