Jan 11 2012 --- Stratum Nutrition, a Novus International business empowering product innovation with specialty and functional ingredients, has partnered exclusively with Phytonet AG to distribute its innovative fiber ARTINIA, and the joint health ingredient, NEM for selective Eastern European countries.

ARTINIA is an innovative, gluten-free fiber ingredient that supports healthy arteries. This EU Commission approved novel food ingredient, and self-affirmed GRAS ingredient, has been shown to support cardiovascular health by protecting LDL-cholesterol from oxidation. Multiple studies have been completed to show ARTINIA is a safe, effective ingredient for supporting the body’s natural antioxidant system and defenses against oxidized LDL.

NEM, a natural eggshell membrane ingredient, is a natural, food-source ingredient that supports joint health.

The natural matrix of glucosaminoglycans, hyarolonic acid (HA), collagen, and other beneficial proteins supports joint comfort and flexibility within 7-10 days with a small (500mg), one a day dosage.

“I have confidence in both products as they fit well within the various industries which we focus,” says Dr. Aydogan. “I look forward to working with Stratum Nutrition in developing products to further such health concerns.”
