 Project objective

Sedentary habits, unhealthy food choices and lack of exercise are posing a tremendous health risk for the European population. Our bodies are overwhelmed by the nutrients that we do not burn by exercising. This impairs our energy balance and damages our metabolism. On the long run, an unhealthy metabolism increases the chances to develop obesity and diabetes. Diabetes affects 10% of the European population and obesity 10-30%. Besides the social implications, this problem has financial repercussions. As the symptoms only manifest at late stages of metabolic dysfunctions, when counter measures are not effective anymore, it crucial is to maintain a healthy metabolism. Vital Solutions Swiss AG is specialized in developing plant-based food ingredients, for functional food and food supplements, aimed at improving human health. We propose Care300, a mango-based ingredient, that keeps our metabolism healthy. By acting on specific regulatory enzymes, Care300 helps to reduce body weight, improves glucose tolerance and helps to develop an optimal body mass and fat distribution. Care300 is an effective and easy-to-use solution that protects from metabolic impairments. We thoroughly studied Care300’s mode of action in our laboratory and we characterized its benefits, in animal and human studies. This and its specific action on body composition are the features that make Care300 unique. The market of food supplement and functional food ingredients is expected to generate revenue for up to €5.6 billions by 2020. People are increasingly aware the importance of taking care of their bodies. With the commercialization of Care300, we expect to reach a revenue of €8.4 millions, a profit of €6 millions and to create a total of 15 new jobs by the 6th year of commercialization.
