InnoVactiv is a science-based company that has been operating for nearly 15 years in the development and commercialization of specialty cosmetic and dietary ingredients that are sold in Canada, USA, Europe, South America and in the Asia-Pacific region.
All our ingredients have been thoroughly tested by independent laboratories, including many significant clinical studies conducted by reputable universities and research centers in different countries. Furthermore, as a company, we embrace the following eco-responsible principles: sustainable harvesting, green processes, non-GMO ingredients, organic ingredients and GRAS certifications.
Our flagship ingredient, InSea2, comes from 2 hand-harvested wild crafted brown seaweeds. It holds all the certifications above and it has been proven in a clinical setting that it can reduce glycemic stress by up to 48%. Its ability to support optimal glucose levels after meals can apply to short term benefits such as cognition (by avoiding sugar crash). As proof, it has been demonstrated that InSea2 can increase cognitive accuracy by 4% and decrease errors by 15% after a meal with a single dose of our product. Furthermore, in our most recent published clinical study, we have shown that prediabetic subjects can revert to normal glucose tolerance following 6 months of InSea2 use.
In total 6 different human studies helped us in obtaining 2 claims from Health Canada, which is a very stringent regulatory organization:
• Helps support healthy blood glucose levels.
• Helps reduce glycemic index of ingested foods.
We also have in the dietary supplement arena Myoceram, a beauty-from-within ceramide extract that boosts endogenous ceramide production to improve overall bodily skin barrier and hydration. Myoceram is available from rice or corn origin, supported with 3 proprietary clinical studies, and in a variety of potencies and forms. It is allergen-free, gluten-free and non-gmo (rice). We have also obtained 2 claims from Health Canada:
• Helps support healthy skin barrier function.
• Helps lessen the loss of water through the skin.
Furthermore, we offer 2 topical ingredients for cosmetic use.
Juventide is a retinol-mimicking ingredient derived from the coelomic fluid found in the starfish Asterias vulgaris. It acts as a powerful anti-ageing compound to fight off wrinkles and improve skin firmness and elasticity. Juventide is obtained by a green, circular-economy process in a sustainable perspective that fully respects marine ecosystems. Its anti-wrinkle efficacy is supported by in vitro, ex vivo and human clinical studies.
Vivensea is a highly effective hydrating agent that rejuvenates ageing skin at the DNA level. It comes from the brown seaweed Laminaria saccharina that shows extraordinary capacity to adapt and fight environmental stressors. This seaweed takes full advantage of the short summer season by displaying an extremely fast-growing pace of several inches per day. Laminaria saccharina survives Canadian winters, some of the world’s coldest weather. The anti-ageing effects of Vivensea are also supported by in vitro, ex vivo and human clinical studies.
