Safety and Efficacy at Every Ingredient’s Core
More than 25 years ago, Cyvex was started in Toronto, Canada. The company was devoted exclusively to ingredients of natural origin for the manufacture of dietary supplements. Its mission and vision were to supply dietary supplement marketers with standardized, branded ingredients to ensure superior and reliable quality, potency and safety. Today, Cyvex Nutrition is one of the industry’s leading pioneers in developing and launching versatile and effective nutraceutical ingredients that consumers trust.
Cyvex moved to Irvine, CA in 1989 to better serve the burgeoning US dietary supplement industry. Cyvex continued to search for sources of pharmaceutical-grade raw materials and to identify global leaders in the research and development of novel compounds. As one example, in 1998, Cyvex was named the exclusive North American sales and marketing partner for Gedeon Richter’s BioVinca®, the purest vinpocetine available, and the source material used for several landmark studies demonstrating efficacy for cognitive function and brain health. The company’s latest cognitive support ingredient, Cognisetin™, is a fisetin-based ingredient that has been shown to stimulate the signaling pathways that enhance long-term memory.
Cyvex has re-engineered the antioxidant ingredient category with its expanding roster of fruit- and vegetable-sourced offerings reflected in FlavoVital™, a comprehensive quick-reference guide to Cyvex’s line of flavonoids, as well as additions to the company’s Antioxidant Wheel, which presents Cyvex’s portfolio of antioxidants in a colorful and easy-to-use manner for R&D formulators.
Company Statement

Quality Assurance
In 2007, Cyvex Nutrition received its cGMP certification that is supported by its longstanding innovative proprietary quality assurance protocol, NutriPrint®. To ensure the identity and purity of all ingredients it sells above and beyond all analytical testing, Cyvex’s NutriPrint employs sophisticated FT-NIR spectroscopy methods to scan a characteristic fingerprint on every shipment and every container. When first launched in 1988, NutriPrint represented one of the very first supplier-created QA protocols, emphasizing Cyvex Nutrition’s industry leadership and innovation.
