What Holistica International does

Holistica International, founded in 1986, is a French dietary supplement laboratory headquartered in Éguilles, France, organized as a privately-held Société Anonyme (S.A.). The company develops and distributes a portfolio of more than 35 branded nutritional supplements and herbal remedies across categories including joint health (Artrolistic, Doluperine line, Silistica), cardiovascular support (Omegacoeur, Veino'Guard), digestive wellness (Propargile, Glucolistica, Konjaline), women's health including menopause (Menolistica, Hémostabine), immune support (Shii-Ta-Ker, Resistance Syrup, Ultra Vegan D3), weight management (Holistimince, Konjaline), beauty (Holisticap, Omegaline, Dermophytum line), and vitamins (Ultra Vegan line, Oligophytum trace elements, Ultra Marine Magnesium).

The company's core technical platform is built around proprietary extraction processes developed over more than 25 years. These include polysaccharide extraction from endemic Shii-ta-ke mushrooms yielding alpha and beta glucan compounds (Lentinan, KS2, AC2P) grown on natural wood substrates, water-only extraction for plant-based B vitamins from germinated buckwheat and other botanical sources, a magneto-dynamization process that imprints solar flower infusions onto sublingual granules at 1/240th dilution for the Flower Complex line, bamboo-silica concentration claimed at 10x horsetail and 20x nettle, and lichen-sourced vegan vitamin D3. Products are supported by clinical observation data and peer-reviewed publications (e.g., Cellular & Molecular Biology, Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry) and are notified to the DGCCRF in France and equivalent authorities in non-EU markets.

Holistica monetizes through one-time retail product sales distributed via two channels. Domestically, the company sells through French dietetic health food shops (magasins diététiques) and pharmacies, the latter being the principal retail channel, with products identified by ACL numbers and a store-locator contact form rather than a DTC e-commerce funnel. Internationally, the company relies on a network of exclusive agents and distributors spanning 13+ countries across Europe (Spain, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, Portugal, Finland), North America (USA, Canada), the Middle East (Israel, Morocco), and Latin America (Uruguay), with adaptation to local regulatory regimes. The company is entirely self-financed, does not accept advertising, and supplements distribution with founder-led professional training seminars for practitioners. Pricing is not publicly disclosed.
