Australian health supplement company Visdon, winner of the botanical product of the year at the NutraIngredients-Asia Awards 2021, is gearing up to launch 20 new products by next year, targeted for specific consumer groups as well as the general population.

Some of these products include the upcoming Brainbook, a supplement for concentration support for adolescents.

The company will be launching in phases, starting with the first phase which comprise generic products such as calcium, DHA algae oil, lutein, zinc and several probiotics for anti-allergy and digestion, mostly targeted at the general population.

The second phase will release products targeted for specific populations such as the cognitive supplement for adolescent, and sleep supplement for adults.

The current strategy we have for Visdon is to keep our products in two streams, one would be high-end stream such as Rebrain, Brainbook or the sleep supplement where the focus is on its unique formula, targeting specific population​,” said Annie Liu, marketing assistant at Visdon.

On the win

At the NutraIngredients-Asia Awards 2021, Visdon’s Rebrain supplement, a supplement for cognitive support in adults, emerged as the winner of the Product of the Year: Botanical​.

Commenting on the win, Liu said: “It's definitely a really good recognition for the hard work that we put in considering we are quite a young company. Not only is the award a recognition for the company, but it also inspires us to do better in the future​.

After hearing the judges’ comments where they liked the evidence-backed ingredients behind the patent-pending and exclusive formula, it is a great encouragement for all the time and effort we put in for the formulation and applying for the patent​.”

Rebrain contains phosphatidylserine, DHA, ginkgo and green tea that help maintain healthy neurons and signalling functions, enhancing brain health and promoting cognitive performance in adults.

It was only launched in 2020, and is listed on the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) of Australia.
