The Neumentix™ Phenolic Complex K110-42 is derived from non-GMO lines of spearmint that incorporate traditional plant breeding methods.

“We are thrilled to announce the approval of Neumentix for use in the Canadian market,” said Penny Woods, Marketing Director, Kemin Human Nutrition and Health. “The application process for Health Canada involves an extensive review of the efficacy, safety and quality of ingredients. Gaining this approval is a significant milestone that will enable our Canadian customers to have their finished product claims more easily approved when formulated with a full dose of Neumentix and reference to the NPN.”

“Neumentix has been in the global market for over five years and continues to capture the attention of key brands looking to formulate with a safe, sustainable and scientifically backed ingredient that has cognitive performance benefits – like focus – as well as lasting benefits linking cognition to enhanced physical performance,” said Woods. “We created Neumentix to help support cognitive performance in adults and offer additional benefits to consumers. With the demand for cognitive health products growing worldwide, the Kemin team is incredibly excited to now offer the benefits of Neumentix to consumers in Canada.”
