- Product Overview
- Cardiovascular diseases still represent one of the major causes of death in the world, with high levels of blood pressure playing a key etiologic role.At the same time stress, worries and contingent situations can negatively pollute our state of health.
- Born from 40 years of Indena’s specific experience in grape seed extract production – in collaboration with Alvinesa - Enovita® Organic aims to become an ally for stress resilience and cardiovascular wellbeing.
- But there’s more: it is the perfect example of the “One Health” approach: with clinically proven efficacy it is also sustainable for the planet and organic certified (fully compliant with EU and USDA organic regulations).
- ENOVITA ORGANIC® Features and Benefits
- In the production of ENOVITA ORGANIC®, the entire process is environmentally friendly and based on a fully upcycling approach:
- firstly, grapes are the product of a farming system that avoids the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides
- then, grape seeds are winemaking by-products, resulting from upcycling operations
- lastly, only water is used as a solvent during extraction, and resource consumption is carefully measured and optimized.
- New evidence has shown an unexpected result: ENOVITA ORGANIC® is effective in improving mood, stress management and quality of life, as well as in reducing perceived stress and worries.
- Findings are supported by a new human study Indena conducted in 2021 with a Perceived Stress Questionnaire focused on these effects, to assess subjectively experienced stress independent of a specific or objective occasion.
- ENOVITA ORGANIC® is a true sustainable ingredient improving mood and resilience related to the perception of stress, then it helps modulate blood pressure in a wide population–so you can be ready to face the hard challenges of our time.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Enovita® Organic into Action
- Grapes have high levels of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), with seeds offering the highest concentration of the entire plant. In particular, OPCs are effective for cardiovascular wellbeing – as antioxidants, blood glucose positive modulators, cardiovascular-friendly and neuroprotective agents.
- With the modern take on blood pressure being “the lower, the better” to prevent CVDs, a recent human study showed that Enovita® Organic is able to modulate blood pressure also in healthy people and borderline subjects, confirming the results obtained also in people with higher cardiovascular risk.
- However, its potential is not limited to the blood pressure control: the same study revealed that Enovita® Organic is effective in improving mood, stress management and quality of life, as well as in reducing perceived stress and worries. That makes it a new potential support for the resilience of the body, acting both on the cardiovascular wellbeing and on the neurological side, promoting a sort of virtuous cycle where mind and body are naturally in balance.
