The history of health supplements can be traced back to the early 90s, when the first multivitamin-mineral supplement was developed by Dr. Paul Carl Reichardt. He was a biochemist at the University of California, Berkeley, and his work focused on the role of nutrition in health and disease.

In the years that followed, the market for dietary supplements grew steadily, driven by a rising interest in wellness and alternative healthpractices fuelled by concerns over the side effects of conventional medicine.
The industry underwent a major boom in the early 2000s, as the market was deregulated and more and more products were introduced, ranging from vitamins and minerals to herbal remedies and probiotics.

This surge in demand for supplements caught the attention of Karle Group’s Phytochemical division Cymbio Pharma and the company saw a unique opportunity with existing coffee plantations in Karnataka. The company focused on sourcing unroasted coffee beans known as “green coffee” and extracting the phytochemical “chlorogenic acid” from it.
Studies suggest that chlorogenic acid has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and has since been the subject of numerous studies exploring its potential benefits for a range of health issues, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

The extraction process of chlorogenic acid is complex and can result in a varying yield depending on multiple factors. Through extensive research on all aspects of the process ranging from sourcing the right grade of beans to the extraction method, Cymbio Pharma was able to produce a large yield while still maintaining high quality standards.
Cymbio Pharma’s focus on quality caught the attention of an aggregator, who supplied the company’s product to a well-known cafe for one of their energy drinks.

The rising demand for holistic alternatives put India on centerstage, owing to the country’s history of well-developed and refined alternative medical practices and lifestyle wellness practices. This international interest towards India and the success of the Chlorogenic Acid extracts encouraged Cymbio Pharma to venture into more extractions, including beetroot, marigold, tulsi, cinnamon, ashwagandha, moringa leaf and amla. Cymbio Pharma’s entry into the wellness industry marked a whole new chapter in Karle Group’s growth and success.
