Expanding Mood & Cognitive Health Solutions
A key global player in ingredients developed from fermentation, Gnosis by Lesaffre expands its reach for Mood & Cognitive Health solutions in 2023 with a new production line expansion dedicated to its star ingredient: Adonat® Premium SAMe (S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine).
SAMe is a natural molecule supporting healthy mood and emotional well-being since it is directly involved in the neurotransmitter’s synthesis. It also sustains cognitive functions, being one of the most important factors studied counteracting alterations in brain structures and functions, intimately tied to the aging process. Further, SAMe applies to supporting liver and joint health.
An aging global population, the rise in neurodegenerative diseases, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the most recent phenomenon of digital dementia have amplified consumer demand for SAMe, increasing the traction for brain & mood health solutions. To that end, Gnosis, the key SAMe manufacturer, was motivated to pursue new opportunities for growth and best serve our partners.
Deep Dive Into SAMe
Research studies over the past five decades have unequivocally established the importance of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe). An endogenously produced compound that plays a critical role in cellular metabolism and function, SAMe is second only to ATP as the most important molecule in cell biology.
