NutriLeads’ BeniCaros Now Available In Taiwan through Maxcare Inc.

The prebiotic carrot fiber ingredient is evidenced to support a healthy immune response.

Nutrileads BV announced today that it has partnered with Maxcare Inc. in Taiwan, to distribute the company’s BeniCaros ingredient in the country.
 
BeniCaros is a natural, soluble prebiotic carrot fiber evidenced to support immune function through two mechanisms of action – it 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 concludes that supplementation with BeniCaros is linked to faster recovery and reduced severity of common cold symptoms following a controlled challenge.
 
Maxcare is based in Taipei and specializes in clinically supported nutraceuticals and fruit and botanical extracts with numerous product applications. Maxcare specializes in product development, marketing, consumer education, and logistic services.
 
“Maxcare is an excellent partner for creating commercialization opportunities for BeniCaros in Taiwan,” said Joana Carneiro, Ph.D., NutriLeads chief executive officer. “As Taiwan’s leading distributor of specialty ingredients, Maxcare has extensive relationships with leading food, beverage and supplement manufacturers. It also has unmatched experience in all aspects of product development and marketing.” 
 
“After the COVID-19 pandemic, people are more focused on their own health, especially their immune health,” said Steve Wu, general manager at Maxcare. “BeniCaros is 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.”
