An increasing need to understand
the intrinsic properties of plants More and more plant-derived dietary
ingredients are being recognised as having beneficial effects on human
physiology and health. The distributors of products containing such
ingredients often choose the ingredients on the basis of traditional
practices but these days, applications and claims have to be backed up with
scientific information, possibly including data from clinical studies. All our knowledge placed at our
customers' disposal The laboratory is always in close contact with
the sales teams and our scientists' in-depth knowledge is at our customers'
disposal, notably their knowledge of the properties of plants and of phytotherapy
acquired over years of experience. The team is often called upon to conduct
exhaustive searches of scientific data bases on behalf of customers with a
view to evaluating the potential of different plants for use in dietary
supplements. A complete, comprehensive
information network The scientific team is constantly on the
look-out for changes in the regulations by monitoring the Internet and
the specialist European and American literature. They also maintain special
links with professional bodies in the dietary supplement world as well as
