Bridging Science, Sustainability, and Wellness
The Founder
Marc spent many years learning about alternative medicines and the concept of food for healing. During his research into medical literature to understand more about natural food that can prevent or reduce disease, it was a trip to the Philippines, a country with the highest density of coconut trees globally where he was able to learn about the science behind the fibrous one seeded drupe coconut fruit.
Partnering with the late Dr Trinidad Trinidad, a scientist from the University of Toronto and Food and Nutrition Research Institute in Manilla, Philippines, renowned for their expertise and study on the coconut plant. Marc discovered the special properties of coconut and created a natural product which he called Cocofib. This was an exceptional natural solution to digestive health and wellness. Marc and the Cocofib team are on a mission to share the many benefits of Cocofib to the world, with the goal of improving the health and wellness of people globally.
The Philosophy is Natural Simplicity
Focus on pure, organic, natural ingredients and what is best for humankind and our planet.
Cocofib has been developed to fill the gap between traditional medicinal practices and modern pharmaceutical applications used to treat metabolic diseases.
The Mission - Sharing & offering the powerful benefits of Prebiotics!
Our team is passionate about the beneficial properties of Cocofib as it helps people live better and longer via the prevention of metabolic disease. A natural, organic, vegan, wholefood, prebiotic that benefits the mind and body. We believe in not only feeding the physical body with the goodness of Cocofib but also the mind with good information. Our mission is to help share information and new discoveries relating to the microbiome the largest less known organ in the human body.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “we depend on a vast army of microbes to stay alive: a microbiome that protects us again germs, breaks down food to release energy, and produces vitamins.”
Scientists have found evidence to support the importance good bacteria has in maintaining good overall health, highlighting the significant role prebiotics play to support probiotics with proliferation. The human microbiome is complex and there is still a lot to learn. Recent technological advances including molecular imaging tools and advance genetic sequencing tool has enabled humans for the first time to visualize microbial entities. This understanding of microbiome science is revolutionary and would lead to many changes with the way we treat and prevent disease.
Quality Control - A top priority
a nutrition-sciences innovation and technology company, the team uses technology to extract the best out of natural plant-based ingredients with properties that can have optimal benefits to health.
Our highly experienced technicians make Quality Control a top priority. Before the product was even produced, a significant amount of resources was used to ensure that we would only take the product to market once we were fully satisfied with the quality of the end product. Cocofib is made from superior coconut flour producers. We had to be happy to make something that we would take ourselves and to share with our friends and family. We adhere to global quality standards and we are ISO and GMP certified to ensure quality and Quality Control in our places of production. Cocofib is the only source of coconut prebiotic.
Quality Control
Independent Laboratory Tests
The purity of our ingredients is important to us. This is why we have both our raw ingredients as well as our finished products extensively tested by independent laboratories to confirm purity and active ingredient content.
- Allergen and contamination testing: 100% of our production is allergen-free, all of our ingredients is third-party tested by Eurofins, India, Germany and USA, for Heavy-Metal, Microbiology and Pesticides
- ISO Standard approved: Production follows HACCP, GMP and ISO 22000:2018 standards, product is stored in non-toxic containers and shipped in mineral oil-free boxes
- Quality guaranteed: Free From magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, nanoparticles (no legal opportunism), genetic engineering, artificial colors and flavors, titanium dioxide and added sugar & sweeteners.
Cocofib is the only source of coconut prebiotic.
Purity
Organic cultivation ensure purity of our ingredients, without any addition of chemical, emulsifiers, fillers, binders, flavoring, coloring. Proprietary process involving only water for hydrolization and steaming to avoid microbiological contamination.
Innovation
The only prebiotic from Coconut source. A whole-food, nutrient-dense, high fiber, Low FODMAP product.
Sustainability
Exclusively sourced and produced in the Philippines, intended to minimise carbon impact from the supply chain process. Sourced from a sustainable organic Coconut. Making conscious decisions on how to reduce our environmental impact by reducing packaging and using reusable materials.
Governance
Our holistic sustainability program is monitored through a structure quality management system and metrics based continuous improvement. Clear up-cycled processes with pure ingredients and processes.
