Botanical ingredient manufacturer Euromed launches perFix™ to support physical appearance and mental wellbeing

Mollet del Vallès (Spain), February 2025: Euromed launches perFix™, a new product in its portfolio of Mediterranean botanical extracts. Produced from locally sourced persimmons, perFix™ has been clinically proven to support fat loss, body contouring, and, thus, mental health. A clinical trial conducted at the Department of Health Sciences, Universidad Católica San Antonio de Murcia (UCAM), Spain, demonstrated that perFix™ delivers transformative results in just 60 days without changes to diet or exercise.^[1]

The randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involved 71 healthy adults aged between 18 and 65, who were all classified as overweight or mildly obese. They were divided into two groups: one receiving 400mg/day of perFix™; and a placebo group receiving identical capsules without an active ingredient. The study lasted 120 days, during which the participants maintained their usual diet and activity levels to ensure that the observed results were solely due to the persimmon extract. 

Over the course of the study, the participants in the perFix™ group lost an average of 2.2kg compared to an increase of 0.7kg in the placebo group. Likewise, fat mass decreased by 2.1kg in the perFix™ group compared to an increase of 1.1kg in the placebo group. Furthermore, waist, abdominal and hip circumferences shrank in the perFix™ group, demonstrating a significant body contouring effect. In addition, trunk fat mass reduced by 1.1kg, highlighting the persimmon extract’s ability to target abdominal and visceral fat for both health and aesthetics. Importantly, no significant reduction in lean or muscle mass was observed, proving that perFix™ is able to promote fat loss without compromising physical strength or metabolic health. Remarkably, most of the benefits – such as the reductions in weight, fat mass, girth, markers of inflammation and improved mental health scores – were seen at the midway point in the study (60 days).

Harnessing the nutritional power of Mediterranean persimmons, perFix™ is produced using a gentle, patented extraction process that uses ultra-purified water as the sole solvent, preserving key bioactive compounds such as tannins, polyphenols, and carotenoids. 

Andrea Zangara, Head of Scientific Marketing and Medical Affairs at Euromed, says: “Today’s health-conscious consumers value natural, holistic solutions that improve quality of life and confidence. The unique ability of perFix™ to promote fat loss, preserve muscle and improve body proportions aligns with the dual goals of wellness and appearance. It’s not just about weight management, it’s about achieving a healthier, more confident self. By simultaneously targeting health and aesthetics, perFix™ meets modern consumers’ need for total wellness.”
