Young scientists are experimenting with traditional Bulgarian recipes and arriving at incredible discoveries! Their proving ground is called the "Centre for Applied Research and Innovation" at Sofia University. There, every month, master's students in biology, chemistry, pharmacy, microbiology and biotechnology develop their potential, reaching findings that were unthinkable until now!
The results of their work are already here!
Valentin Tsochev is living proof that being a scientist today is something cool! Together with the team of the Centre at Sofia University, over the past year he discovered that the combination of the antioxidant found in red wine and the good bacterium found in Bulgarian pickles helps normalise cholesterol and blood pressure after just 3 months of use! And so, driven by his curiosity, Valentin is now a partner of the innovative Bulgarian company "ProViotic", with which he successfully produces his innovation in the form of tablets as a food supplement.
To confirm the results, "ProViotic" is already conducting a human study together with Prof. Asen Gudev, a cardiology specialist at the "Tsaritsa Yoanna" University Hospital, on people with high blood pressure and high levels of bad cholesterol.
Science instead of pushy marketing!
Kiril Petkov, founder of "ProViotic", believes that old Bulgarian recipes have great potential for solving many health problems without side effects. Modern science and technology provide additional advantages in extracting the good ingredients from these Bulgarian traditions.
Products bearing the "ProViotic" brand have a clinically proven effect and have established themselves, not only on the Bulgarian market, as food supplements WITHOUT added chemistry!
The motto of "ProViotic" has always been "Science instead of marketing", and the company has successfully stayed true to it since its founding.
One of the brand's fundamental and revolutionary discoveries is the product ProViotic Helicobacter. As the name itself suggests, it is the only product on the market that is clinically proven to successfully tackle the symptoms caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori! It is precisely this bacterium that causes the unpleasant ulcers and gastritis! The studies on ProViotic Helicobacter were carried out nowhere other than Harvard!
The ProViotic team continues its joint work with the young scientists from the Centre for Applied Research and Innovation and will very soon present a new, revolutionary product created especially for women – ProViotic Candida.
One of the most motivating things for young scientists is having someone stand behind their ideas and help them bring them to life!
