    PHARMA NORD AND HEART RESEARCH

    Pharma Nord actively supports science in its efforts to find new treatments, in particular in order to increase the quality of life of people who, due to age or illness, can benefit from the medicine Bio-Quinone for prevention and treatment of coenzyme Q10 deficiency. Among other things, Pharma Nord's preparations were used in the Swedish KiSel-10 trial with Q10 and selenium supplements for healthy elderly and also Q-Symbio, a large, multinational trial using Q10 from Pharma Nord. Both trials were completed with exceptional results.

    PHARMA NORD AND CANCER RESEARCH

    The fight against cancer is one of medical science's greatest challenges. Pharma Nord is actively involved in international research in cancer prevention and treatment. One of the largest and most ambitious planned European research projects in this area to date is the international PRECISE study. Pharma Nord delivered both tablets and placebo tablets for the PRECISE pilot study. The PRECISE study that were planned to encompass 35-40000 volunteers from Denmark, Sweden and England, is not yet funded.
    Pharma Nord has also supplied preparations for a large multicenter study of bladder cancer with patients from centers in Belgium, France and England.

     

    REFERENCE PRODUCT

    Because of its good and well documented bio-availability Pharma Nord's coenzyme Q10 preparation is a reference product for the International Coenzyme Q10 Association and has been tested in more than 70 studies. This research is one of the main reasons why the preparation is able to document such a high level of bio-availability. What is more, the fact that it has been on the market for close to 20 years provides good safety data for the product.

     

    CONFERENCES & SYMPOSIUMS

    In some areas the amount of new science surfaces so frequently, it pays off to arrange regular symposiums, where scientists from all over the world gather to present the latest scientific breakthroughs. In many cases, Pharma Nord hosts or co-hosts such events. So far, scientific symposiums and conferences have been arranged in research areas like Q10, CLA and selenium.

     

    THE EXPERIENCE OF THE CONSUMERS

    Consumers make their own experience and this is of invaluable importance to our existing and future products. Although consumer experience can hardly be classified as "scientific documentation" it still gives a clue as to whether or no the preparations have an effect and are generally safe to use, short- or long-term. For this reason, Pharma Nord regards every type of consumer feedback as something of enormous value, and actively encourages consumers to contact the company if there is a story to tell.
