BIOACTIVES
What Are Bioactives?
Bioactives are biologically active small molecules found in plants and microbes, and these tiny compounds affect biology in plants and humans alike. While bioactives surround us in nature, many of them have yet to be formally discovered. In fact, it’s believed less than 1% of these powerful compounds have been mapped by science.
When consumed, bioactives can act as keys unlocking specific receptors in our body, triggering a cascade of biological responses that can support our health and daily functioning. While some bioactives are well known - like the caffeine in our tea and coffee - many have yet to even be discovered. Through our Forager AI platform, we map bioactives found in nature and connect them to their human health benefits.
Brightseed is on a mission to discover bioactives potential for human health, and deliver safe and science-backed ingredient solutions that address consumers’ greatest health needs.
