Surplus fat in the body disrupts normal glucose and lipid metabolism, resulting in a higher risk of developing metabolic syndrome conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and stroke. In fact, excess fat creates a vicious downward cycle in immune health by promoting low-grade inflammation, which exacerbates metabolic dysfunction, that fuels further inflammation. This presents an enormous threat to global health in a world where, according to the World Health Organisation, in 2022:

Depending on the diagnostic criteria you use, between 12.5% and 31.4% of the people globally are already living with metabolic syndrome or pre-diabetes.*

Omega-3 DHA – a powerful bioactive that can improve metabolic and immune health

Human trials* have shown Omega-3 DHA to be a powerful weapon in the fight against obesity-induced metabolic syndrome in overweight and obese adults. Studies have proven that it can…

working in optimal synergy

DHA and phosphatidyl choline (PC)

AkoVita OptiSyn™

The phosphatidyl choline (PC) in AkoVita OptiSyn™ works in optimal synergy with the DHA to support its digestion, uptake, transport and function. It also moderates inflammation and is a natural source of choline – a vital nutrient which plays a key part in the healthy functioning of the nervous system. This short video explains how PC boosts the impact of DHA.

Imagine what you could achieve with AkoVita OptiSyn™

OptiSynTM can be incorporated into a wide range of recipes and product types. It presents a great opportunity to develop new enteral nutrition products, harnessing the synergic combination of DHA and phosphatidyl choline to improve metabolic and immune health. In addition, with up to 70% of global consumers familiar with DHA (regional differences apply) and 39% looking to functional drinks to boost their health*, there is a growing opportunity for functional drinks aimed at improving health or preventing disease. Why not pioneer a new way to deliver greater DHA benefits, without using more DHA? *FMCG Gurus: global consumer health data, 2023, N=8000.

More effective than other forms of DHA

Our studies have shown that AkoVita OptiSynTM works very effectively and outperforms both Algae DHA and Algae DHA choline salt in delivering DHA to the cell membranes, to maximize its impact. Reach out if you would you like to know more about this study:

This is the challenge that AkoVita OptiSyn™ sets out to address – maximizing the effect of DHA, by improving its incorporation into cell membranes, where it is needed to be biologically active.

However, not all of the DHA we consume gets to the cell membranes where it is needed.

In comparison to typical DHA oil, AkoVita OptiSynTM delivers a range of formulation, production and storage benefits… It is less prone to oxidation, or the development of off-flavors associated with DHA oil from either fish or algae It can be stored at <25oC, eliminating the need for costly and complex frozen storage It eliminates the need for adding separate choline salts

More stable and easier to use than typical DHA oil

It is important therefore to manage obesity, not just for weight control, but for maintaining metabolic and immune health. Our great new solution AkoVita OptiSyn™ - can disrupt this cycle, by helping DHA to get to the cell membranes, where it is used to create anti-inflammatory mediators.
