HWP partners with the highest quality ingredient providers in the industry. Each month we highlight one of these ingredients. The February 2020 focus is EpiCor fermentate.
Overview:
EpiCor fermentate from Embria Health Sciences was developed based on 70 years of fermentation experience by its parent company Diamond V Mills. The company noticed that Diamond V employees who manufactured its yeast culture weren’t using as much sick time as the office workers. Based on this finding, Diamond V commissioned a pilot study to see if there was a causal effect and discovered that the immune system of the workers was stronger. Following that discovery, Embria was formed to develop a commercial application of the health-promoting ingredient. Read the full story here.
The Science:
EpiCor has participated in 17 studies, including eight peer-reviewed published human clinical trials. The human clinical, in vivo and in vitro studies have covered five areas: immune support, pollen support, microbiome effects, fast-acting, and safety.
