The agreement will expand Stratum Nutrition’s offerings in the UK.

“As many will recall, Stratum just completed a purchase of Sibelius:Sage ingredient and now we get to continue utilizing their expertise in the UK market,” says Chris Haynes, Stratum Nutrition’s senior director of global sales.
“We are pleased to announce our partnership with Stratum as the UK distributor for sage and their flagship ingredient, NEM, under Oxford Natural Products,” adds Peter Leyland, CEO of Sibelius.
Science-backed ingredients
Stratum Nutrition’s NEM eggshell membrane is derived from the inner membrane of chicken eggshells, which it says is a natural source of collagen, glucosamine, chondroitin and hyaluronic acid.
The ingredients work synergistically to support joint health and are well-suited for dietary supplements aimed at promoting joint support and mobility.
Furthermore, extensive clinical research on NEM provides formulators and consumers with a clinically validated and science-backed ingredient.
Boosting cognition
Stratum Nutrition’s sage offering is a Salvia officinalis extract that helps support a healthy memory.
According to the company, the extract is standardized to high levels of rosmarinic acid, which is the bioactive compound responsible for many of sage’s cognitive benefits.
Additionally, the ingredient is non-GMO and cultivated using specific farming protocols, conditions and harvesting methods to ensure the consistency, reliability and standardization of the extract.
