Polyphenol concentrates as in 5-a-day
Oxxynea® is a plant-based ingredient providing polyphenols as in the daily consumption of 5 servings of fresh fruit and vegetables. The large spectrum of polyphenols (100+) in Oxxynea® protects the metabolism over 24 hours. Supported with a clinical study. Data available to support equivalence claims to fill the nutritional gap. From 90 mg/day.
Polyphenols as in 5 servings of fruit & vegetables
The benefits of fruit and vegetables are derived from the cumulative power of vitamins, minerals, fibres and polyphenols.
Polyphenols are naturally present in plant-based foods and are the first source of dietary antioxidants for humans. Their rapid elimination and the absence of storage in the body explain the need of regular intake. They are key nutritional compounds responsible for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis.
The WHO recommends consuming 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day (FAO/WHO 2004).
But the recommended 5 servings daily struggle to be followed, worldwide.
Oxxynea® - Key features
-
FILL THE NUTRITIONAL GAP
A daily intake of 90 to 450 mg/day provides the same quantity of polyphenols as in 1 to 5 servings of fruits and vegetables - 7 SELECTED BOTANICALS
-
100+ POLYPHENOLS IDENTIFIED
-
24-HOUR PHENOLIC LOAD
Nutrikinetic study confirms a sustained release of metabolites from the diversity of bioactive polyphenols -
PROVEN EFFICACY TO MAINTAIN REDOX HOMEOSTASIS
Clinically proven metabolic protection
Oxxynea® is not intended to replace a balanced and diverse diet.
Science supporting Oxxynea®
Oxxynea® has been evaluated in a double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study conducted on healthy subjects in a cross-over design to evaluate the nutrikinetic and acute benefits of selected polyphenols on the protection against oxidative stress during the post-prandial period.
Characterisation
Composition: Green olive extract (Olea europaea L.), Grape extract (Vitis vinifera L.), Pomegranate extract (Punica granatum L.), Green tea extract (Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze), Grapefruit extract (Citrus paradisi Macfad), Bilberry extract (Vaccinum myrtillus L.), Citrus hesperidin (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck).
SPECTRUM OF POLYPHENOLS
Oxxynea® provides a diverse range of bioactives with more than 100 polyphenols from 5 main families of compounds: flavan-3-ols, flavanones, ellagitannins, secoiridoids, and anthocyanins.
Primary active compounds
Total polyphenols (eq. gallic acid) ≥ 51%
Recommended daily dosage: from 90 mg/day
Oxxynea® provides polyphenols as in several portions of fruit and vegetables.
90 mg/day Polyphenols as in 1 serving of F&V
180 mg/day Polyphenols as in 2 servings of F&V
270 mg/day Polyphenols as in 3 servings of F&V

*In cross-over studies, the participants will be switched throughout to all the treatment groups (both formulations and placebo) after a washout period.
Oxxynea® provides a 24-hour phenolic load in 1 intake.
After a single intake of Oxxynea®, a triphasic absorption pattern after a single intake of is observed thanks to the large spectrum of polyphenols: early presence of phase II human metabolites and later apparition of microbiota-derived metabolites.
This kinetic curve mimics the various intakes during the day with a diversified diet: each meal taken during the day provides a diversity of phenolic compounds from varied sources. This regularity ensures a constant circulation of phenolic metabolites for whole-day protection.
The 24-hour phenolic load is driven by polyphenol diversity inducing both rapid and delayed absorption of metabolites as well as rapid and delayed excretion.
Oxxynea® composition helps to reduce inter-individual variability of absorption.
Providing a diversity of polyphenols from several botanical origins reduces the inter-individual variability. This indicates an optimized ability for anyone to absorb diverse bioactive metabolites providing nutritional benefits while avoiding the non-responder putative benefits following the intake of individual phenolic compounds.
Oxxynea® provides post-prandial metabolic homeostasis ensuring antioxidant defenses.
Malondialdehyde is an accurate biomarker of lipid peroxidation.
An increase in reactive oxygen species induced by high-fat/carbs meal causes overproduction of MDA in placebo. Oxxynea® supplementation had a protective effect by limiting the MDA production.
Supplemented volunteers spared their antioxidant defenses, whether endogenous or exogenous, causing sustained biological homeostasis.
Polyphenols from Oxxynea® provide physiological benefits going beyond antioxidant defenses.

Oxxynea® is safe
No adverse event linked to Oxxynea® supplementation has been recorded.
