NutriLeads BV has expanded global distribution of BeniCaros, the company’s clinically proven immune-support ingredient for foods, beverages and supplements, through an agreement with Maxcare in Taiwan.
BeniCaros is a natural, soluble prebiotic carrot fibre that accelerates healthy immune responses through a unique dual mechanism of action. BeniCaros trains the immune system by preparing innate immune cells to respond faster and selectively increasing beneficial gut microorganisms and their metabolites that support immune health. Clinical research shows that healthy individuals taking BeniCaros felt better faster and reported significant reductions in the severity and duration of common cold symptoms following a controlled challenge.
Based in Taipei, Maxcare specialises in clinically supported, science-based nutraceuticals, fruit and botanical extracts with numerous product applications. Maxcare has broad expertise and resources for product development, marketing and consumer education, and logistic services.

It also has unmatched experience in all aspects of product development and marketing.”

BeniCaros has patented and clinically proven immune support. It is our pleasure to be working with the NutriLeads team and we look forward to opportunities for BeniCaros to improve people's health and overall wellness.”
