OUR BRAND

SLOW ORGANIC HOLISTIC
BORN IN GREEK NATURE, RAISED IN THE WORLD

Founded in Patras in 2013 by a team of engineers and management innovation experts, MILESTONE Food for your Genes offers natural liquid functional foods. Our formulas harness the power of Greek nature with key ingredients derived from value-added natural products and medicinal plants, enhanced by cutting edge technology.

OUR 4 PILLARS OF INNOVATION

  • WE CAPTURE the proven protecting, healing and rejuvenating properties of the olive and pomegranate trees.
  • WE EXPRESS the infinite resilience of the unique Greek biodiversity.
  • WE MASTER the art of traceable, sustainable and clean active formulations.
  • WE OFFER effective natural functional products to the world.

OUR BRAND NAME

We needed to somehow connect our vision to the next healthy food trends that are rising globally. Foods that serve as a milestone for your genes. Our name is inspired by our belief that humanity will advance together with human critical thinking; and our critical thinking is dependent on how wisely we choose those components from our past that can survive in the future. We combined past and future under a common brand name: MILESTONE® Food for your Genes.

OUR MISSION

SHIFT THE PARADIGM ON PREVENTATIVE NUTRITION

Inspired by the eternal synergy between Greek nature and natural medicine, MILESTONE places its passion and commitment to the environment at the heart of everything we do. Just like the beehive, our company is a living organism that never stops creating and distributing value:

value for the environment, value for society, and value for the economy.

This value is captured and embodied in our products, which are developed in a spirit of sustainability and responsibility in order to achieve internal beauty that respects nature and people: beauty of the mind, beauty of the soul, and beauty of the heart. We invite you to spread this beauty all over the world.

A NATURAL SYNERGY

A NATURAL SYNERGY

They are undoubtedly the most precious trees of the Mediterranean region, counting thousands of years of history. Some believe that they are both intrinsically linked and it is not uncommon to find plantations that contain both of these majestic trees. The olive and pomegranate trees offer some of the most rejuvenating and healing properties in nature. They are home to some of the most vibrant natural species and contribute to sustaining and promoting biodiversity. They produce precious byproducts that have been used in traditional pharmacopoeia for millennia and form the basis of all our formulas.

BIOAVAILABILITY

the ultimate question

When we eat, the food is taken into our digestive system. Useful nutrients are then absorbed into our bloodstream and are either stored or used by our cells. However, because our body is not perfectly efficient, not all the nutrient molecules will be absorbed: some are destroyed in the stomach and intestines, some are excreted back, and some simply just don’t go inside the cells. Bioavailability is a measure of how much a substance is able to access the circulation and reach the target area. Milestone’s natural ingredients are formulated to have high bioavailability as they help the body to absorb more of the appropriate nutrient, without having to take higher doses.

MILESTONE UNIQUENESS:

  • NUTRIENTS from foods are scientifically accepted to be more bioavailable than common supplements.
  • FAT soluble vitamins are more easily absorbed by the body in the presence of fat.
  • WHEN EATING real food, you’re not consuming single nutrients, but rather a whole range of vitamins, minerals, co-factors and enzymes that allow for optimal use by the body.

PLANTS & EXTRACTS

01
Olive

OUR OLIVES

Hydroxytyrosol is one of nature's most potent anti-oxidant compounds with multiple and unique health benefits. It may only be produced under very special conditions, which is the reason that MILESTONE is consistently ranked among the top medical olive oils internationally. Research over High Phenolic Olive Oils has been intensified worldwide the last 10 years which gave birth to this new pharma category of olive oil under the umbrella of functional foods with health claims. The EFSA (EU REG 432/2012) and FDA have now approved different health claims based on the content of polyphenols and mono-unsaturated fatty acids, based on which an olive oil containing at least 5mg of hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives (e.g. oleuropein complex and tyrosol) per 20g of olive oil may carry the claim of protecting the blood lipids from oxidative stress. It highly relates to the reduction of blood cholesterol and improvement of cognitive markers at early stages of the Alzheimer's disease based on the latest clinical trials. Our medical olive oil is taking part in some of the most important clinical trials worldwide and has been numerously awarded for that reason.

@@
02
Pomegranate

OUR POMEGRANATES

Our pomegranate extract contains the highest amount of polyphenols that has ever been recorded. It originates from the Wonderful variety and contains high amounts of potassium, ellagic acid, punicalagins and many more potent bioactive compounds. Its antioxidant capacity has been placed under the microscope of some of the best research international institutions, including the Department of Biotechnology and Biochemistry at the University of Thessaly, Greece. The results have been remarkable and indicate an increase of 30x in anti-oxidant capacity markers as compared to other fruit extracts. It offers countless health benefits that include anti-inflammation, athletic performance, bone health, heart function and many more.

@@
03
Turmeric

OUR TURMERIC EXTRACT

We are proud to be in a position to offer you the most bioavailable form of turmeric extract worldwide, currently ranked as 185 times more bioavailable than anything that exists in the market. It has been found to be absorbed by the body at the record rate of 66 minutes in comparison to standard formulations that may take up to 450 minutes. Turmeric — and especially its most active compound, curcumin — have many scientifically proven health benefits, such as the potential to improve heart health and prevent against Alzheimer's and cancer. It's a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. It may also help improve symptoms of depression and arthritis.

@@
04
Algae

OUR ALGAE

Algae are the chief primary producers of the globe. Besides photosynthesis their role in environment is enormous. They produce enormous range of compounds as they face various substrate and stress conditions including the extremophilous habitats. These compounds now a day are being utilized widely in medicine. Algae are variously used as: antioxidants, source of vitamins, anticancer and antitumour agents, anticoagulants and antithrombic agents, source of anti-inflammatory compounds, source of antibiotics, source of antiviral compounds, food supplements, nutraceuticals, vermifuges, source of biocosmetics, in thalassotherapy and in obstetrical uses. Our algae cultivation is performed in an environmentally responsible fermentation – indoor conditions with water (not solvent) processing. No exposure to potential contaminants such as pesticides and other chemicals in the open air, water, and ground.

PROTOCOLS & PRACTICES

INNOVATIVE PROCESSING LINES

At MILESTONE we have been researching for more than 10 years on how to facilitate the bioactive ingredient mutation from fruits, plants and seeds to final products. We have come up with so many exciting results, some of which we decided to bring into life through our final biofunctional liquid formulations. Our technological advancements, such as vacuum processing in the absence of heat, are responsible for magnifying the concentration of the targeted bioactive ingredients, which boils down to the desired product attributes depending on which health function we attempt to regulate. MILESTONE liquid functional solutions are nature’s food medicine.

UNDERSTANDING THE SOIL AND THE SEEDS

It is now evident that the efficiency of a functional product is primarily dependent on the cultivation practices on the soil and the DNA of the tree or plant. Our protocols allow us to give rise to those “mother” compounds down the hierarchy that we are looking for in our final products. We select trees that carry a “wild component” of nature, for example our olive trees are always selected so that the part of the trunk that connects to the soil originates from the Olea Sylvestris genos, commonly known as wild olive tree. The whole process adheres to extremely selective standards from start to finish and for this reason we are required to pay attention to the finest details through a combination of human observation and intelligent monitoring via sensitive sensors.

TRACEABILITY

01
TRACE

FROM SOIL TO BOTTLE

We guarantee the traceability of all our ingredients “from soil to bottle” thanks to exclusive sourcing from a unique network of trusted and registered local organic farmers who share our values centered on ecologically sustainable development. Since 2018, we have ensured complete transparency about the ingredients used in the manufacture of our products to show that they are the best possible for our customers and the environment.

@@
02
SAFETY

FOOD SAFETY

Consumer safety is our top priority. We continuously audit our suppliers to ensure they comply with our guidelines and control the quality of our products at all levels, imposing the strictest international quality and regulatory standards: - raw materials evaluation (quality, chemical composition, toxicological data, specific use and maximum concentration), - finished product tests (chemical analysis tests and clinical studies), - marketed product monitoring (collection and analysis of customer feedback).
