In 2002, a research report revealed positive health effects from bioactive peptides in arctic shrimp shells. Since then, Marealis have invested tremendous resources into research, product development and clinical testing. As a result PreCardix is the first blood pressure lowering supplement in the world made from the natural by-products of shrimp. By discovering the valuable benefits from this underutilized source, PreCardix is committed to support the planet in a sustainable way while battling the development of elevated blood pressure.

 

The B Corp certification is provided by B Lab, a nonprofit organization that focuses on the global movement of People Using Business as a Force for Good. The goal is for all businesses to use their practices in improving both social needs and environmental performance. To become certified, Marealis has met the strict requirements related to the company’s impact on workers, community and environment. This was determined through a comprehensive B Impact Assessment with approximately 200 questions. All the answers were reviewed through multiple interviews with representatives from B-Lab. Marealis also had to submit sufficient documentation supporting their answers in order to secure the credibility of their claims.
