Clinical trials and Consultation
Our services contribute to a healthier life.
It is our goal to improve your competitive edge and the value-added of your products. We want consumers and authorities to view information about your products as coming from a credible and reliable source – a true approach to a healthier life. We offer services in the following areas:
- Clinical trials of foodstuffs
- Consultation and advice
- Regulatory affairs
More and more consumers are demanding healthier food in order to lead an active and healthy life. Evidence based upon clinical studies increases the credibility of your products, both with consumers and relevant authorities. We have experience and knowledge of cereals, dairy products, lipid-based foods, probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins as well as different supplementations. Our primary focus areas are:
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Weight management and body composition
- Lipid metabolism
- Glucose and insulin metabolism
- Satiation
- Mental state and physical performance
- Blood pressure
- Gut health and immunity
- Nutrigenomics
We also offer expertise, for example in conjunction with the design of new food products or the planning of a clinical study. Our years of experience, our extensive network and access to subjects, special equipment, and clinics throughout Europe are at your disposal.
We have found participants in our studies to be highly committed and accurate in their delivery. Our dropout frequency is only about 5 percent. Our subjects also serve as representatives of your end customers, which gives us in-depth knowledge of your target groups.
We have gathered leading expertise into a scientific council that guarantees that the performance of our studies complies with high scientific standards. The members of this council are an important speaking partner in the discussion and evaluation of results. They also contribute to the development of our own competencies.
Based upon our broad knowledge and extensive experience with clinical trials, we are developing a new generation workflow system that supports clinical trials of foodstuffs – GFPS™. The aim of this system is to reduce the time it takes from idea to finished report – while guaranteeing a high level of scientific quality, real-time information, traceability, and the possibility to collect and save data from several different studies in the same database. This system collects and saves data in order for you to:
- Achieve support for applications to the EFSA for approval of health claims
- Make data available for official requirements direct from Internet
- Provide the potential for complementary statistical analyses of individual or linked studies
- Integrate data with your internal systems
