Science supporting Fiit-ns®
Two clinical studies have been run on Fiit-ns®. Both studies were conducted according to double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled protocols.
A consumer test, run on 200 people, highlights the perceived changes on quality of life, energy, overwell wellbeing and associated benefits following the consumption of Fiit-ns®.
Characterisation
Fiit-ns® provides 4 complementary subclasses of polyphenols within the flavonoid category: flavanols, flavanones, procyanidins and anthocyanins.
Fiit-ns® combines polyphenols from grapefruit, grape, green tea and black carrot with vitamin B3 and low-dose caffeine.
Primary active compounds
Flavonoids ≥ 15%
Secondary active compounds
Caffeine 45 mg
Vitamin B3 16 mg
Composition: Green tea extract (Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze), Guarana seed extract (Paullinia cupana Kunth), Grape extracts (Vitis vinifera L.), Grapefruit extract (Citrus paradisi Macfad), Black carrot extract (Daucus carota L.).
Recommended daily dosage: 900 mg
Mechanism of action
Fiit-ns® activates the virtuous circle.
"Quality of life (QOL) is defined as the degree to which an individual is healthy, comfortable and able to participate in and enjoy life events. It’s more than just the absence of disease: it’s a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being." according to the World Health Organization.
Polyphenols are bioactive compounds demonstrated to help the body rebalance metabolic functions.
The combined action of polyphenols from grapefruit, grape, green tea and black carrot, with vitamin B3 and low-dose caffeine helps to (re)activate a virtuous circle to reach a better quality of life.
Fiit-ns® is clinically proven to support healthy metabolic ageing for an enhanced quality of life. Vitamin B3 in Fiit-ns® contributes to increase the feeling of energy while reducing tiredness engendered by active lifestyles.
Fiit-ns® makes healthy ageing possible and targets any age group.

Fiit-ns® improves metabolic function.
Fiit-ns® supplementation contributes to a significant improvement of metabolic markers:
- Lipid profile: significant reduction of triglyceride level (-14%) within 3 months and significant improvement of the HDL-c to LDL-c balance.
- Glycemia: significant impact on pre-diabetes markers with a reduction in fasting glycemia (5.7%) and reduction of glycated hemoglobin (13.6%).
- Oxidative status: significant increase in the level of endogenous superoxide dismutase (30.5%) and reduction in malondialdehyde level (34%).
- Low-grade inflammation: significant reduction in fibrinogen and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, the hepatic marker of inflammation.
Fiit-ns® improves body composition.
Supplementation with Fiit-ns® helps to improve body composition.
The index of central obesity (ICO), measured by the ratio of waist circumference to height, is significantly improved; 83% of the fat loss is from the trunk area during the supplementation.
Fiit-ns® provides higher vitality.
The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) assesses total physical activity within 4 life domains:
- Working
- Transportation
- Housework and gardening
- Leisure time
The score established in MET-min (Metabolic Equivalent = energy cost of physical activity) represents the level of activity of the subjects measured per week.
Subjects taking Fiit-ns® are involved in more physical activities than the placebo group.
Fiit-ns® improves health-related quality of life.
Overall quality of life of the subjects has been measured with the international referential SF-36. This questionnaire introduces 36 questions classified in 8 domains that describe physical and mental health.
| PHYSICAL HEALTH |
MENTAL HEATLH |
| Physical functioning Role limitations (physical) Bodily pain General health |

Fiit-ns® is safe.
No adverse event linked to Fiit-ns® supplementation over the period 2008-2023 has been recorded.
