Facing the challenge of a balanced diet? Our Mediterranean Diet supplement bridges nutritional gaps with potent ingredients, supporting your daily well-being and complementing a healthy lifestyle.

  • Garlic has been revered for centuries not only for its distinctive flavor but also for its health benefits. Rich in compounds like allicin, garlic extract supports cardiovascular health by maintaining normal blood lipid levels and contributing to the normal function of the immune system. Given the small amounts typically consumed in the diet, a concentrated extract can provide a more potent dose of garlic's beneficial compounds.

  • The heart-healthy Mediterranean diet is renowned for its high content of olive oil, which is rich in polyphenols. Olive leaf extract brings these same antioxidant benefits in a concentrated form, supporting the body’s defense against oxidative stress and maintaining cardiovascular health. The polyphenols in olive leaf, such as oleuropein, are not easily obtained in significant amounts from diet alone, making supplementation a practical choice.

  • Grape seeds are a source of powerful antioxidants, including oligomeric proanthocyanidin complexes (OPCs), which are difficult to obtain in large quantities through diet. These compounds support vascular health, helping to maintain the integrity of blood vessels and supporting overall circulatory health.

  • Lycopene is a potent antioxidant found in tomatoes and other red fruits. It supports cellular health and is linked to the maintenance of prostate health. Given the varying lycopene content in foods and the amounts needed to derive significant health benefits, supplementation with lycopene beadlets offers a reliable method to obtain its health-supporting effects.

  • Pomegranate is celebrated for its high antioxidant content, including punicalagins, which support the body’s defense against oxidative stress. While pomegranates are a nutritious addition to the diet, concentrated extract provides a more practical and consistent way to achieve the desired intake levels of its active compounds.

  • Found in the skin of grapes and in berries, resveratrol is associated with anti-aging and heart-health benefits. However, the concentration of resveratrol in foods can vary greatly, making it difficult to achieve therapeutic levels through diet alone. Supplemental resveratrol can therefore play a key role in supporting cardiovascular health and longevity.

Olive Leaf (Olea europaea)

In our fast-paced world, maintaining a balanced and nutritious diet poses a significant challenge. Despite our best efforts, gaps in nutrition can occur due to various factors, including the quality of available food, busy lifestyles, and individual health needs. This is where the role of thoughtfully formulated food supplements becomes invaluable, offering a convenient way to support daily nutritional intake.

Our Mediterranean Diet-inspired supplement is designed with this in mind, featuring a blend of potent, health-supporting ingredients derived from traditional Mediterranean dietary staples. Each component has been carefully selected for its nutritional properties, contributing to overall well-being and complementing a balanced diet.
