Where can I get personal advice?

Our products are on sale in pharmacies where the staff is trained in nutrition and phytotherapy, where you will be well advised.

On this website, you can read and download the "product sheet" for each preparation to make the best use of it, as well as find advice for optimal nutrition and lifestyle.

You can also call or write to us. We will answer your questions and assist you until you are completely satisfied. This service is free for all our customers.

How long do the products keep?

To preserve all nutritional values until the best-before date, store your Sekoya dietary supplement in its original packaging, away from light and at an ideal temperature of around 20°C. After this date, your dietary supplement remains safe to consume, but it loses nutritional value and therefore effectiveness.

Are your products suitable for vegetarians/liens?

All of our plant-based products are suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets, including the capsules. Only three products (Omega 3+, Pernadol®, Pernaflex®), which contain marine-derived nutrients, are not suitable for vegans.

Can several food supplements be taken simultaneously?

There is no contraindication to taking several food supplements over the same period of time, provided that the maximum daily values are not exceeded. If in doubt, call us.

If I forget to take my supplement, should I double the dose the next day?

Regular consumption provides the best results. A day without taking a food supplement should not be compensated by taking more the next day. You would exceed some of the recommended intakes without achieving more effects.

What happens if the recommended vitamin intake is exceeded?

The recommended daily allowances are intended for the entire population and do not take into account the age, gender or particular needs of each individual. Therefore, some Sekoya formulas voluntarily exceed the recommended daily allowances, while respecting the limits set in the legislation*.

Can food supplements be combined with medication?

Sekoya preparations have no known interactions with medications. In rare cases, the treating physician may advise against certain combinations. If in doubt, do not hesitate to consult your physician.

Should dietary supplements be taken on an empty stomach?

It depends on the composition of the dietary supplement.

At Sekoya, the general recommendations are as follows:

• Supplements containing fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, or K), such as Omega 3+, Optilux, or Spirulina & Vitamin D, should be taken with a meal containing a small amount of fat to aid absorption.

• Supplements containing mainly water-soluble vitamins, such as Acerola + or Magnesium & Vitamin C, can generally be taken on an empty stomach. However, if you experience digestive discomfort, it is best to take them with a meal.

• Herbal supplements, such as Harpagophytum, Curcuma Phytosome, Hops, Ginkgo & Ginseng, Rhodiola, Prostenol, or Black Garlic, are generally better tolerated when taken with a meal.

• Probiotics, such as Exaflora, should be taken according to the instructions on their product label. Recommendations may vary depending on the strains used.

• Prebiotic fibers, such as Inulax, can be taken with or without meals, along with a large glass of water.

To get the most out of each product, we recommend following the usage instructions on the packaging or in the product information sheet. The Sekoya product lines include supplements for joints, digestion, immunity, sleep, cognitive function, energy, and acid-base balance.
