Who are we
1. We are world leaders in accessing the Complex Chemicals, Powerful Stimulants and Dense Nutrients in pure cacao for medical and theraputic applications
2. Our plan is to use the technology that we have developed in the Food, Nutraceutical, Cosmeceutical and Pharmaceutical sectors underpinned by scientific evidence.
3. We will pursue neurotheraputic and cardiotheraputic applications with cognitive health and neuroprotection as our ultimate goal
Our Aspiration
“Our aspiration is to develop a transformative natural cacao technology based on a number of botanical extracts that will have a global impact on Cognitive Health and the Diseases of Aging.”
Chocolate
Van Houten Process
A fermentation process that lasts for up to ten days.
A drying process that can involve direct heat.
The beans are coated in Alkali (Dutching process Potassium or Sodium Carbonate.)
Beans are roasted
The beans are then crushed under tons of pressure to separate the oils from the solids.
The oils are used to make cocoa butter and the solids ground to a powder.
Chocolate is made using the above with additives such as whey powder, milk powder and palm oil.
Pure Cacao
A Neurogenics Patented Process
Our beans are fermented for a short period of time to stop germination.
They are air dried.
Our beans are not “Dutched.
Our beans are not roasted nor are heat applied when winnowing.
Our beans are processed using a specially built machine (patents pending).
There is very little heat used in our process in order to preserve the nutrients, Probiotics, stimulants and complex chemicals
There is nothing added to our product.
What have we done?
We have patented a novel process that probably has the highest levels of combined Nutrients, Powerful Stimulants and Complex Chemicals. Our primary pure cacao product is offered in its synergistic form ensuring powerful efficacy.

Our Secondary Technology
Since our first patented technology we have moved our innovations further to develop an ever more powerful botanical extraction process in order to target cognitive health.
Our processes are not solvent based resulting in natural, organic and vegan friendly products. These biological extracts are up to eighty times more powerful than our first synergistic products from our original patent. The extracts allow us to
select specific chemicals in order to target particular diseases and outcomes. We will patent all of our processes.
The processes that we have developed and are developing build on a long history of research in this field and demonstrate our capability to develop a range of nutraceutical and cosmeceutical products that are unique with a high return to capital and are therefore extremely profitable.
We will look to exploit the MENA markets [Middle East and North Africa] Asian and US markets where natural and nutraceutical products are part of the cultural norm and where cardiovascular and metabolic syndrome and the diseases of aging are increasing rapidly.
Our Engineering Innovations.
In order to manufacture high functional pure cacao we have had to develop specialist manufacturing machinery that can process cacao with the oils and butter content present. We have worked on this problem for over ten years This innovation is what the Van Houten process was unable to achieve and consequently the functionality of cacao was lost due to the need of applying heat, long fermentations and establishing a manufacturing process that was capable of volume manufacturing. Our novel machine is now patents pending. We will continue to drive forward these innovative engineering breakthrough by scaling up to deal with high demands for manufacturing. Aligned with this we have developed a number of other manufacturing solutions that we will patent.
Conclusion
An IP-based platform technology with huge potential across food & health.
A number of immediately commercially scalable products can be turned into major brands based on manufacture in the NE.
Multiple work streams to demonstrate the potency of our technology all of which will have IP driven commercialization.
Alignment between Neurogenics, the CPI, Teesside University and our historic links with the University of East Anglia.
An innovative technology and IP ladder that allows us to build a hub based on powerful biological extracts targeting the diseases of aging anchored in the North East of England with international spokes.
The opportunity to work with a number of blue-chip partners to license our technology and knowledge across a range of sectors.
