Pharmachem to Launch GPM Biome Fermented Nutrients with Postbiotics at SupplySide Global

Kearny, NJ — October 15, 2025: Pharmachem Innovations, a leader in innovative nutritional solutions, will showcase its latest advancements in GPM™ Fermented Nutrients, now with the addition of a clinically relevant dose of postbiotics (1 billion TFU), at the upcoming SupplySide Global tradeshow in Las Vegas, NV, October 29-30 (Booth #4845). The latest launch of GPM™ Biome provides a dual-benefit solution – enhanced nutrient absorption and gut/immune support* in one clean-label ingredient. The use of patented probiotics in GPM™ Biome delivers next-generation functional nutrition and strong label claims.

Pharmachem's line of GPM™ fermented nutrients includes vitamins and minerals that have been fermented, which help the body recognize these nutrients as food. When nutrients are bound to a "food matrix," absorption and bioavailability increase, making them easier on the digestive system. Unlike isolated synthetics or engineered chelates, GPM™ nutrients mimic how vitamins and minerals occur in nature elevating the consumer experience. GPM™ Fermented Nutrients are available as organic, non-GMO, soy-free and gluten-free.

Clinical Evidence of Bioavailability & Tolerability

Recent clinicals have shown increased plasma levels as well as tolerability with GPM™ Fermented Zinc and GPM™ Fermented Iron.

In a double-blind, randomized crossover trial (Jäger et al., 2024; Nutrients), 16 adults received a single 11 mg dose of zinc as either GPM™ Fermented Zinc vs USP zinc oxide. Plasma zinc concentrations were significantly higher with GPM™ Fermented Zinc at 120, 180, and 240 minutes. Compared to zinc oxide, GPM™ Fermented Zinc demonstrated an ~40% greater incremental AUC and a ~10% higher Cmax (trend). Both formulations were well tolerated, with no reports of gastrointestinal distress.

In a randomized, three-period crossover trial (Secrest et al., 2025; Cureus), 17 adults received 18 mg of iron as GPM™ Fermented Iron vs ferrous bisglycinate (FBC) vs ferrous fumarate (FF). GPM™ Fermented Iron demonstrated superior absorption, with serum iron levels averaging +27 mcg/dL higher than FF and a significantly greater iAUC compared to both FBC and FF. All formulations were well tolerated, with no gastrointestinal side effects, highlighting GPM™ Fermented Iron's favorable safety profile.

"Our fermentation process is already clinically proven to improve nutrient absorption and digestive comfort. Now, via our proprietary fermentation process, GPM^TM Biome naturally generates beneficial postbiotics with clinically supported immune benefits," said Árpád Széchényi, President & CEO, Pharmachem. "This innovation reflects consumer demand for science-driven, clean-label solutions that support gut and microbiome health."
