IP6 International

What IP6 International does

IP-6 International, Inc. (DBA IP6 Gold) is a Florida-incorporated nutraceutical company founded in 2002 by Tom Sokoloff and headquartered in Melbourne, FL. The company manufactures and markets two branded dietary supplement product lines: IP6 Gold® — a proprietary combination of IP6 (Inositol Hexaphosphate, 400 mg) and Myo-Inositol (110 mg) extracted from non-GMO rice bran sourced from Japan, available in 120-count and 240-count capsule formats plus unflavored and Mango Passionfruit powder formats — and Red Yeast Rice Gold®, a certified organic red yeast rice (Monascus purpureus, 600 mg per capsule) supplement for cardiovascular support, available in 120-count and 240-count formats. Both product lines are Non-GMO Project Verified and manufactured at an NSF GMP-certified facility, with IP6 and Inositol holding GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status from the FDA.

The company's revenue model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce via ip6gold.com, supplemented by sales through U.S. health food retail stores, healthcare practitioner offices (naturopaths and wellness doctors), international distributors in Croatia, Malaysia, Spain, and the United Kingdom, and the iHerb online marketplace. Unit pricing ranges from $26.95 to $79.95 with approximately 20% discounts on multi-pack purchases and free shipping above $75. The company employs 1-10 people and serves two primary customer segments: health-conscious individual consumers using the product as a daily immune and antioxidant supplement, and healthcare practitioners who recommend IP6 Gold to patients as a complementary wellness product.

In February 2026, IP-6 International was acquired by Spanish pharmaceutical company Devicare, S.L., representing Devicare's first international acquisition and entry into the U.S. nutraceutical market. The transaction was financed in part by a €1.2 million loan from COFIDES, Spain's development finance institution, through the FONPYME fund. Following the acquisition, IP-6 International operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary under Devicare's strategic ownership, combining IP6 International's established U.S. brand and commercial platform with Devicare's scientific expertise in IP6 research.
