Biotivia Bioceuticals LLC Company Information
Mission Statement

After 18 years of manufacturing raw materials and botanical extracts for the food, medical and supplement industries Biotivia entered the finished products arena for one reason. To design products that fit the space between generic vitamins and nutrients which are safe but only marginally effective, and prescription pharmaceuticals which are often effective but come with frequently serious adverse effects and high cost.

Unlike most supplement companies Biotivia was founded by and is staffed with scientists, pharmacists and specialists in nutraceuticals and botanical extract manufacturing. Our obsession is with quality, safety and effectiveness, not on compromising quality for the sake of a lower cost or on clever marketing gimmicks.

Our products are based upon intensive research and collaboration with the scientific and academic communities. They are safe, free of adverse side effects but uniquely potent and efficacious.

When we decide to create a new product we are guided by two overriding principals. First, there must exist a preponderance of definitive scientific evidence which demonstrates that a natural compound or combination of compounds has important health effects or efficacy against a medical condition, or can contribute to a significant improvement in a person's quality of life. Secondly, once our scientists have made this conclusion we identify the best product currently serving this application, if one exists, and we formulate our product to be at least one order of magnitude better.

The fact that we utilize only very high quality natural extracts, and we manufacture our products in sterile, regulated pharmaceutical facilities, and we take great care to preserve the integrity of the finished product means that our supplements will not always be the least expensive of their category. However we assure you that they will be ethical, efficacious, safe and based upon sound and rational design and formulation principals. We believe that good value is more than simply low price. Good value to us means a high quality, safe, effective product which is priced as low as we are able based upon our costs plus a profit sufficient to insure Biotivia remains economically viable.

Company History

Biotivia was established in 1992 in Vienna Austria as a supplier of natural raw materials and botanicals to the supplement and functional food industries and to researchers and scientific institutions worldwide. The company presently has US offices in New York, Los Angeles, Kansas City and international offices in the UK, Spain, Austria, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, Xi'an China and Mumbai India.

Biotivia pioneered the science of supplement design and development based upon evidence of efficacy and safety drawn from the company's own studies and trials and in collaboration with world renowned research organizations. The company presently supplies researchers, physicians and scientists employed at Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Georgetown, The Albert Einstein Medical Center, University of Texas, the University of California, and many others with research-grade bioceuticals. Transmax and Bioforte are being studied by several major universities as a possible treatment for a variety of conditions that seriously impair the health and well being of millions of people around the world.

Biotivia is the first supplement manufacturer in the world to apply advanced "Active Packaging" technologies to its products to insure the highest level of freshness and potency even after the container is opened. It is also the first company to dramatically improve the bio availability of its products, especially its Resveratrol and polyphenol-based products. Low bioavailability of many antioxidants is a common problem which the company's scientists have succeeded in overcoming without resorting to synthetic additives or lowering the product dosage.

Biotivia's products are unique in their use of synergistic ingredient formulations which deliver outstanding potency and therefore greater efficacy and a better value to our customers. Bio Quench is an example of how evidence-based design works to increase product strength. The combination of trans-resveratrol and super fruit extracts in Bio Quench has resulted in achieving an ORAC value of over 13,500 units per gram, a new benchmark for super antioxidants.
