A closer look at real-world nutrition: this 2026 analysis compares fatty-acid profiles across three self-reported omega-3 supplementation groups. EPA+DHA and AA/EPA patterns differed between groups. For us, the interesting perspective is the move from broad categories to personal measurements.

Observational findings, not proof of product benefits. Author links to Zinzino/VITAS are disclosed. Testing does not replace medical assessment.

Beyond omega-3.A whole-person approach.

Omega and balance are our starting point. From there, we consider nutrition, wellbeing and care together, with additional tests and products for different needs.

TechnologyInnovation with a longer horizon.

The next chapter starts with microalgae.

Think beyond the next product: towards new ways of sourcing its ingredients. Through Xion, Zinzino is investing in algae technology, combining photobioreactors and fermentation. The ambition is a future omega-3 supply for BalanceOil+ — a development project that puts tomorrow’s raw materials on today’s agenda.

Production with purpose.

From an idea to consistent production, execution matters. BioActive Foods and Faun Pharma connect development and manufacturing within the group. Faun Pharma’s ISO 9001 certification and HACCP-based quality management give that work a structured foundation.

Intelligence in action.

Digital intelligence is already part of daily operations. In Q2 2026, Zinzino reported that AI handled 30% of customer-service enquiries. For us, that is a tangible sign of a business building its digital capabilities as it grows internationally.

Zinzino continues to expand its approach to personalized wellness with the European launch of three fermented botanical supplements: BelAge AM, Inner7 and KroNuit PM.

Unveiled at the 2026 Annual Event in Oslo, the new range combines botanical ingredients, fermentation technology and convenient drink formats designed for different moments of the day.

The launch represents another step in Zinzino’s product development strategy, connecting its established focus on test-based nutrition with new approaches to everyday wellness.

Financial research platform Simply Wall St covered the launch in its 27 October update, discussing the portfolio expansion and the commercial question of repeat usage.

Innovation is not just about creating new products. It is about making new possibilities accessible in everyday life.
