What is Innutria?

Innutria is a specific blend of naturally occurring nutrients that when added to foods or beverages delivers powerful metabolic health benefits. Innutria is the perfect ingredient to make most any beverage or food much healthier. It is inexpensive, has a benign flavor that is unnoticeable in foods and beverages, and is composed of nutrients in completely safe dosages. It's clinically proven to:

  •          Protect the vascular system against inflammatory stress.
  •          Promote a healthy vascular inflammatory system balance.
  •          Support the body's own anti-oxidant function.
  •          Protect against oxidative stress.
  •          Promote healthy weight.
  •          Promote healthy/optimal body composition.
  •          Control body fat.
  •          Help burn fat and add lean muscle mass.

In short, Innutria promotes metabolic health, aids weight and fat loss, and helps mitigate the health problems resulting from obesity.


About Us

Our mission is to discover anti-obesity and metabolic health activity in food compounds, develop new intellectual property (IP) from those discoveries, and create products with anti-obesity and metabolic health properties for multiple target demographics.

Use Our Screening Services To Discover Hidden Value We can help you differentiate your product from the competition through development of new IP. We offer a unique, validated medium-throughput system for rapid screening of novel food compounds for anti-obesity activity. This system is available under either a contract screening or a shared development basis to screen for additional anti-obesity activity in foods and food constituents in your product line.
