About Us
We analyze hundreds of scientific publications to select natural compounds with strongest evidence of biological activity and most relevance to human conditions.
We are not building a catalog supplement company with hundreds of products. We offer exclusive natural products with real science behind them and further formulate them to achieve optimal activity in the body.
We are a team of Ph.D.s and M.D.s. passionate about wellness, healthy lifestyle and longevity. We apply our extensive experience in FDA-regulated pharmaceutical development of novel medicines to the manufacturing and testing of new nutraceuticals offered under Betulex.life brand.
But we don’t stop here.
We conduct our own clinical trials of BETULEX™ to confirm its effects in people with various metabolic issues (high cholesterol, high lipids, high sugar, liver problems) including athletes actively building muscle mass and overloading on supplements.
We develop improved formulations of BETULEX™ to reach even higher levels of its biological activity and produce a flavored supplement suitable for children.
We plan to launch a medical cosmetics line based on betulin’s amazing and clinically proven activity in topical application such as wound healing, skin diseases, burns and other conditions.
We care about pets! Both orally available and topical formulations will be developed that would offer antiviral and wound healing support to cats and dogs based on BETULEX™ proven activities.
