Food supplements

The power of the Mediterranean diet concentrated in a capsule

Our Innovation

We have developed a novel, eco-friendly, large-scale method to extract selectively the phenolic ingredients of olive oil and transform them to a hydro-soluble product available in powder form without calories, in a vegetarian capsule.

The extract is formulated in dietary supplement capsules and offers to the product the power of the Mediterranean diet.

Our patented olive oil extract in capsule is stable for 2 years. The capsule contains the extract in powder form with PEG and cellulose

The method is protected by two patents (Greece, Europe, USA, Russia, Japan, Australia, New Zealand) belonging to OMPHAX SA

*The production process is very difficult to be copied without violating the patent

Gap in the market

  • 18 million people die every year (31% of global deaths, WHO) from cardiovascular diseases, mainly heart attack and stroke, related with unhealthy diet, hyperlipidemia and diabetes
  • 1 out of 6 people will die from cancer, heavily related with unhealthy diet with low intake of fruit and vegetable active ingredients.
  • 150.000.000 people are suffering from Alzheimer’s disease without effective available medication
  • There is huge need in big food supplement companies for diversification through the production of safe products, derived from officially recognized health-protecting foods, and able to reduce the risk factor of unhealthy diet.
