Oleactiv ® and healthy aging with Fiit-ns ®. Fytexia was awarded Best Natural Provider in Western Europe with the ingredient Fiit-ns ® . Targeting metabolic anti- aging, this ingredient is a blend of botanical extracts with vitamin B3 to increase the feeling of energy while reducing tiredness linked to active lifestyles. With a first clinical pilot study published in the International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition in 2015, Fiit-ns ® is clinically proven to improve Quality of Life based on the rejuvenation of metabolic markers of the aging process. This trial served as a basis to build a stronger clinical study run in 2016 on a total of 72 subjects. This second clinical study confirms the improvement in Quality of Life and all its components (vitality, energy, feeling of health). Subjects under Fiit-ns ® naturally reactivate a virtuous cycle leading to a healthier lifestyle. Recently, Fytexia’s portfolio was extended to include a full range of Sports Nutrition ingredients. The aim of the Fytexia is to bring out the vast – and mostly unexploited – potential of natural polyphenols for the optimization of physical activity. Fytexia investigated specific combinations of bioactives from botanicals and their demonstrated benefits for active consumers. Four ingredients targeting performance, endurance, recovery and zen sports are now available. This challenge was triggered by the wish to offer formulas that are safe, supported by strong human evidence and made of natural, non-GMO ingredients that people can recognize and trust. Overall, with commercial offices in Vendres (France), New York (USA) and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), the French company is exporting its expertise worldwide, and moving forward continued growth and success will remain its ongoing focus.
