BORDEAUX (France), October 27, 2019 – Memophenol™, the clinically-proven innovative patented solution to prevent the age-related cognitive decline on seniors, is confirmed to act as a memory booster by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).

Since its launch in 2017, Memophenol™ gains credibility on the scientific community. The JAMA, a peer-reviewed international medical journal with a high scientific level (Impact Factor: 51), published this October 24, 2019 a new article about Polyphenol-rich Grape and Blueberry Extract (PEGB) marketed with the brand Memophenol™. Through a precise description of the clinical protocol and results, this unique and synergistic blend of French grape and wild blueberry extracts is described as a promising memory booster to prevent the age-related cognitive decline.

This article quotes a randomized, bicentric, double-blind placebo-controlled clinical study including 215 healthy seniors, from 60 to 70 years old supplemented with 600mg of Memophenol™ (or placebo) during 6 months, conducted by Activ’Inside and its partners. Compared to the baseline and the placebo group, Memophenol™ supplementation significantly improves short-term memory and reverts cognitive age by up to 1 decade.

At Beychac et Caillau, the 30th of August 2019

Beychac & Caillau (France), August 28, 2019 – Memophenol^TM, the clinically-proven innovative patented solution to prevent the age-related cognitive decline on seniors, is confirmed to act as a booster of cognitive performance. Its effectiveness in acute dosage has been evaluated on students by Activ’Inside in a new clinical study.

Nowadays, 20% of students use “smart nootropic drugs” as cognitive boosters to stay competitive and focused. These nootropics, mainly Modafinil or Methylphenidate used in pharmaceutical drugs, have potential long-term side effects [Nature journal, 2008]. To offer quick benefits comparable to those of nootropic drugs without their side effects, Activ’Inside proposes its 100% natural & patented formula Memophenol™ to boost students’ cognitive performance in acute dosage.

Activ’Inside conducted a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled crossover clinical study including 30 French graduated students, from 18 to 25 years old. The crossover approach makes the comparison more powerful as students are their own control.  Each student took both placebo & 600mg of Memophenol^TMin acute dosage, 90 minutes before a one-hour intense mental effort. Cognitive performance, including working memory, attention & alertness, was assessed by both objective and self-assessment validated tests in exam conditions.

In 90 minutes only, Memophenol^TMacute supplementation induces booster effects. Objective results show that Memophenol™ significantly maintains higher cognitive performance by 36% when students were supplemented with Memophenol™ compared to the placebo. This gold-standard clinical study not only proved Memophenol™ effectiveness, it also convinced students by its benefits on cognitive performance: students under Memophenol™ supplementation felt significantly more performant by 39%, according to self-assessment results. These clinical results are subject to a new proprietary patent highlighting Memophenol™ quick effectiveness in acute dosage.

Activ’Inside announces Memophenol™ selection as ingredient of the year for Healthy aging category at the NutraIngredients Awards Asia 2019.

Memophenol™ did it again! Over the past 4 years, this is the 3^rdselection at a prestigious award for the Activ’Inside star ingredient. Launched in 2016, Memophenol™ has already been awarded twice in Europe. First named as the laureate for “pharmaceutical product” category at Vitafoods 2016, Geneva, Memophenol™ won its second European award at Vitafoods 2017, Geneva, as the ingredient of the year in “Healthy Aging” category.

The second step was to be recognized around the world in the name of all the scientists involved in this long-lasting international consortium led by Activ’Inside.

At Beychac et Caillau, the 28th of may 2019

Activ’Inside introduced Safr’inside^TM, the first encapsulated saffron extract at Vitafoods Europe 2019 in Geneva. Manufactured in France through patented extraction^TM process Tech’care that confers a natural encapsulation of saffron volatile and sensitive metabolites, Safr’Inside^TM provides an optimized safranal concentration: up to 10 times more than other saffron extracts. 

So far, saffron extracts used to nutraceutical applications are not sufficiently characterized, and render only part of the active metabolites originally present in Iranian saffron stigmas. This is mainly due to the applied extraction processes that alter most of saffron active metabolites. Such as safranal and crocin, which are highly volatile and/or thermosensitive compounds. To preserve their richness of the raw material (Iranian saffron stigmas), Activ’Inside has developed and patented a soft-extraction process: Tech’care extraction™. Made in France, this process is based on an innovative extraction/absorption combination: during their extraction, saffron metabolites are preserved from heat and solvent alterations thanks to the addition of a carrier. This unique process provides a natural encapsulation of saffron metabolites.

Saffron particles trapped in the maltodextrin support.                                      Saffron particles and support are separated

Preserves and optimizes safranal concentration                                               No protection of saffron volatile metabolites

Compared to a classic atomization process in which saffron particles and support are separated, the Tech’care extraction^TM process allows saffron particles to be surrounded by the carrier matrix. Such process protects saffron volatile metabolites, especially safranal, and optimizes its concentration in the final extract. According to U-HPLC analysis, Safr’Inside™ is significantly richer in safranal than other saffron extracts: up to 10 times more than Spanish saffron extract.
