scientists and health advocates committed to helping
others achieve their healthiest future
Our story begins with the discovery of AvoB™, the active ingredient in Metavo.
Dr. Paul Spagnuolo is one of Canada's foremost experts in nutraceuticals. Working at the Food Science Department at the University of Guelph, Paul has discovered a number of novel nutraceuticals and has done extensive research into their active compounds and effect on various diseases. A number of years ago, a team of nutritional scientists led by Paul, and in partnership with the University of Guelph, conducted extensive research and identified and isolated a completely new bioactive ingredient naturally found in avocados – AvoB™.
After much investigation and testing, the team confirmed that longterm consumption of AvoB™ has the ability to improve metabolism by rebalancing blood sugar levels naturally, effectively and safely.
SP Nutraceuticals has taken the discovery of AvoB™ and formulated the new product called Metavo. This product can be used to maintain a healthy metabolism in adults, particularly those who are overweight, pre-diabetic or looking to manage insulin levels.
But that’s just the beginning.
