Melorun®, the recovery ally
Melorun® is a natural concentrate of melon juice. Naturally rich in superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme, it also contains a cocktail of all the nutrients found in melon.
Highly bioactive, Melorun® works by strengthening the body’s natural defences, which avoids oxidative stress and inflammation, two key factors in physical recovery.
Through this mechanism of action, Melorun® also prevents muscle and joint damage as well as physical and mental fatigue. The result? Better sensations during exercise, increased resistance to fatigue and faster recovery!
An exceptional source of SOD
The melon variety behind Melorun® derives its originality from an incredible shelf life due to a concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is 5 to 10 times higher than that of a conventional variety. Today, the seeds of this unique non-GMO variety are our exclusive property.
Quality & traceability
Each year, they are entrusted to a small group of long-standing, selected producers. The seeds are planted in the open air according to a reasoned or organic production and the melons are harvested by hand at optimum maturity.
All our fields are located in the South of France, and in particular in the region of Cavaillon, renowned for its traditional know-how. From the seed to the final ingredient, Melorun® is fully traceable!
A patented, environmentally friendly process
Melorun® is manufactured using an environmentally-friendly and gentle process involving only mechanical steps without the use of solvents or additives. Successive filtration steps and rigorous temperature management allow a gradual concentration of the fruit’s antioxidant capacities.
Through an encapsulation step, our melon concentrate is protected and its bioactivity is guaranteed.
