Carotech, the largest and only GMP-certified tocotrienol producer in the world, is proud to announce that it has achieved Non-GMO Project verification for its range of Tocomin® and Tocomin SupraBio® natural full-spectrum palm tocotrienol complex.

The Non-GMO Project is an independent third-party verification program that aims to provide companies who are interested in providing their customers with more information regarding the GMO risk of their products, as well as increasing consumers’ access to non-GMO foods.

Carotech’s Non-GMO Project Verified ingredients include Tocomin SupraBio 20%, Tocomin 50%, Tocomin 30%, and Tocomin 20% (natural full-spectrum palm tocotrienol complex).

Tocomin SupraBio 20%, a patented and bioenhanced full-spectrum palm tocotrienol complex, is Carotech’s top-selling product that guarantees an increase in absorption (250 percent) of each individual tocotrienols compared to a regular generic tocotrienol oil extract. It is used primarily in neuroprotection, cardioprotection, liver health, and skin formulations.
