Early development
In 2017, at a strategy meeting with Prof Russell (Senior Nutritionist) Rowett, it became clear that uptake of the truly exceptional properties of this superfood weren’t being utilised because of the plant’s pungent taste. This was confirmed in human nutrition research undertaken by Prof Russell using local volunteers.
What followed was three years of intensive research and development. The outcome is Sciiona, a patented palatable moringa product that overcomes the barrier of the plants bitter taste through micro- coating with cellulose, whilst preserving all of its nutrients.
Rowett pedigree
