Made from sustainably harvested American ginseng
(Panax quinquefolius L.)
Supported by patents, Cereboost™ derives its power from a formula of six ginsenosides – adaptogens that occur naturally in American Ginseng. Just 200 mg of Cereboost™ a day delivers sufficient quantities of ginsenosides to provide a positive effect, with benefits for memory, attention, energy and mood that have been documented in human clinical trials published in peer-reviewed journals. ³ ⁴ ⁵ ⁶
At Givaudan, we source high-quality American Ginseng in a way that protects both people and the environment. The American Ginseng we use to produce Cereboost™ is grown and harvested sustainably, in accordance with the principles of our Sourcing4Good programme, which promotes responsible practices across our value chains.
As part of our efforts to contribute to happier, healthier lives, we collaborate with our American Ginseng growers to promote biodiversity, minimise our environmental impact, and provide transparency across the supply chain. We also aim to have a positive impact on local communities by providing safe, clean and healthy working conditions and through community outreach programmes.

Multiple clinical studies – conducted with diverse populations over a 10-year period – have shown that Cereboost™ delivers benefits for memory, attention, energy and mood.⁴ ⁵ ⁶ ⁷ These clinical studies conducted in collaboration with recognised global experts, have been published in peer-reviewed journals.
This includes the following human clinical studies:
Cereboost™ could owe its scientifically proven benefits in part to its effect on the gut-brain axis. Recent in-vitro data suggest that the mechanism of action of Cereboost™ may be associated with increased levels of certain gut microbes (Lactobacillus and Akkermansia species) and short-chain fatty acids associated with cognitive health. This may be linked with memory and mood benefits, while boosting the key neurotransmitter levels and helping to activate the prefrontal cortex.⁶ ⁸

American Ginseng in the wild is now under threat. That’s why we only use cultivated crops and take steps to ensure supplies remain sustainable.
We start by working exclusively with growers who are committed to the principles of our Sourcing4Good programme. In fact, our main long-term supplier was recently audited and demonstrated best practices in line with the Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) guidelines, which helps companies assess and improve on-farm sustainability in their value chains.
From planting to harvest, we work with our growers to provide transparency and traceability along every step of the journey. Cereboost™ comes with an ID pack analysis report, which contains details of all the testing that has taken place verifying species, authenticity and purity of the American Ginseng.
As part of our commitment to protecting biodiversity and minimising our environmental impactt, we promote sustainable agricultural practices in our American Ginseng production. This includes:
Cereboost™ is only possible because of the people who grow, harvest and process our American Ginseng. We’re indebted to the knowledge and expertise of the communities who have understood the secrets of this amazing plant for generations. In addition to providing safe, clean and healthy working conditions, we aim to create a positive impact on local communities. Most importantly, we invest in strong relationships. Through regular visits, we take the time to get to know our suppliers and their families, and to look for opportunities to contribute to their communities.
Generally considered healthier and more nutritious than the other main cereals, oats offer a full range of benefits in a single ingredient. OatWell™ can be provided in three different concentrations of beta-glucans, all delivering both soluble and insoluble fibres, along with an average of 21% - 23% protein.
OatWell™ uses a unique production process to fractionate the oat kernel into three product lines: beta-glucan products, oat flours, and oat oils. Our production process preserves the native structure of oat beta-glucans, retaining their high molecular weight during fractionation into oat brans with a high amount of beta-glucans.
The molecular weight of oat beta-glucan is essential to delivering health benefits. OatWell™'s beta-glucan has a very high molecular weight (2000-2500 kDa as naturally found in oats), which contributes to its unique viscosity and thickening properties. This viscosity has an important impact on physiological functions, such as reducing blood cholesterol levels, moderating blood glucose and insulin levels, and potentially benefiting satiety.
Benefits of OatWell’s high molecular weight:
The prebiotic effects of oat bran fibre have been validated through years of research. In a review by Malkki and Virtanen, they cite: “in the large bowel, soluble dietary fibre increases the fermentation activity, especially production of butyric acid, enhances growth and colonisation of some probiotic bacterial strains, increases production of microbial mass and thereby aids the removal of nitrogen via faeces. It also increases wet weight of stools, thereby alleviating constipation”.²¹
Research conducted on oat beta-glucan demonstrates that it meets three important criteria, confirming its status as a prebiotic fibre:¹ ²
