HELVESANA® Products

HELVESANA® is a newly launched product-line that serves to improve the consumer's well-being and health in a very pleasant manner. HELVESANA® has especially been developed to counter-balance diet-related lack of nutrients.

With advancing years the body produces less and less coenzyme Q10. Even medicines can hamper the body's own synthesis of coenzyme Q10. As a consequence of the decreasing production, the body is more and more dependent on an increased external supply.

Among other benefits this can not only have a positive effect on aging processes, but also on the energy balance and the increased well-being of the entire body. HELVESANA® does not only promote health, it even has a very pleasant taste. It is an ideal start into a successful day full of energy.

HELVESANA® contains a well balanced combination of coenzyme Q10, vitamins, minerals and lutein. The product contains no alcohol and may be consumed by diabetics.

The liquid form of administration is especially advantageous for all persons who do not like to swallow big tablets or capsules.

All vitamins in HELVESANA® are derived from natural sources. Both ingredients and the entire product are produced according to the highest Swiss and international guidelines for excellent quality and safety!

The Innovation

What is so special about HELVESANA® is, that it contains the poorly water soluble ingredients coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E in a fully water-soluble form on the basis of a patented procedure.

It has been shown in scientific studies on coenzyme Q10 that this procedure increases the bioavailability (= uptake of coenzyme Q10 into the body) several times compared to generic coenzyme Q10 formulations.

Increased bioavailability of HELVESANA® compared to other products.

The effectiveness of water soluble coenzyme Q10

In customary products the fat-soluble components like coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E are included as an emulsion or as fat droplets. These emulsions break in the acidic environment of the stomach (pH < 2) and a separation into a water and a fat phase occurs. The subsequent digestion and intake requires biliary salts and enzymes to generate natural micelles (small globular aggregates). For customary products the resulting uptake by the intestine is therefore strongly reduced.

In HELVESANA® products the fat-soluble ingredients coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E are already included in a completely water soluble micelle-form on the basis of a patented procedure. These micelles are stable even in the acidic environment of the stomach and are taken up very rapidly.

The significantly increased uptake and bioavailability of the coenzyme Q10 that is utilized in HELVESANA® products was verified in scientific studies.
