Science-based.
We don't do things by halves. Marketing bullshit is not our thing - scientific findings, on the other hand, fascinate us. Our products are the result of three years of very careful development. We do not follow trends, but prefer to focus on uncompromising quality and complete traceability of every single pouch. Every batch is lab-tested.
Scientific Studies
Scientific study results often develop a momentum of their own in the media. Especially when it comes to topics that interest almost everyone – such as weight loss or longevity – we tend to accept study results unquestioningly. But how do you recognize the few truly relevant studies?
What does “scientific” actually mean?
For us, this means that our product development always begins with extensive literature research. We then focus exclusively on the studies that meet our requirements criteria. On this basis, an iterative process is carried out together with our scientific advisory board and external experts and assessors, in which only ingredients with a clearly positive benefit-risk profile are included. One example of this is the hormone melatonin: it does not meet our requirements because the possible benefits are simply too small compared to the possible risks. Given this level of care, it is not surprising that we have all our products tested by independent laboratories, and we do so for every production batch.
Longevity is a holistic journey
How well we will do in the future depends on many factors – and surprisingly, our DNA usually only accounts for a very small part of them. We can actively shape the largest part of our well-being ourselves. That's why the first building block of any scientific longevity journey is your lifestyle, e.g. getting enough sleep and exercising regularly. Find out more about our holistic approach to longevity here, to make your longevity journey meaningful. Magic pills play no role in this.
Our dosages are scientifically based, safe and divided into sensible serving sizes.
The final word doesn't come from the marketing department. It comes from our scientific advisory board.
Production takes place in Germany. Local production is very important to us so that quality is not left to chance.
Testing, analyzing, evaluating: Our products are continually examined and, if necessary, adapted to the latest scientific findings.
We rely on natural plant-based ingredients as much as possible - with the exception of Omega3 and GLOW. None of our products are tested on animals.
We do not use any ingredients for ASPRIVA that come from genetically modified raw materials and attach great importance to the origin of each ingredient.
Our Scientific Advisory Board
We follow a highly structured product development process that involves nutritionists, food chemists and regulatory affairs experts. Our scientific advisory board plays a central role in this process. Every ASPRIVA® product must convince our scientific advisory board.
