SP Nutraceuticals

SP Nutraceuticals Inc. was established in 2016 by Dr. Paul Spagnuolo and Christina Barbato. Dr. Paul Spagnuolo is a renowned expert in nutraceuticals. Working at the Food Science Department at the University of Guelph, Dr. Spagnuolo has discovered a number of novel nutraceuticals and has done extensive research into their active compounds and effec... t on various diseases. Dr. Spagnuolo was published in Cancer Research for his discovery of a lipid derived from an avocado which targeted and killed leukemia stem cells. Dr. Spagnuolo continues to use these same methods of screening and validation and has discovered other active compounds which treat other diseases many people currently suffer from. After years of researching different food and plant molecules, understanding active compounds and how various diseases were targeted, Dr. Spagnuolo felt that there was a need in the natural health product market for scientifically proven molecules and set out to create a company that would commercialize these discoveries into viable products that could improve the lives and health of people struggling with disease. Christina Barbato co-founded SP Nutra by leaving her job as a lawyer downtown Toronto to work full-time developing these products and finding the best way to make them available to as many people as possible. Christina takes discoveries through patent and trademark protection, hires consultants to work through formulations, regulatory approvals and clinical trials and finds well-suited partners who believe in our mission to deliver scientifically proven, novel natural health products to the world.Read More
