CHICAGO, Oct. 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: COSM), a diversified, vertically integrated global healthcare group, today announced the initiation of a new research and development program leveraging nanotechnology to enhance the effectiveness of phytochemical constituents used in its dietary supplement formulas.

This new initiative builds upon the proprietary know-how developed during the creation of CCX Hydrogel, a breakthrough platform for optimised bioactive delivery. The Company is now expanding its innovation pipeline by developing plant-based extract-loaded phytosomes intended for use in dietary supplements. These nanostructured systems are designed to significantly improve the absorption, stability, and bioactivity of phytochemicals, leading to measurable efficacy improvements.

The approach follows a sustainable, solvent-free process, emphasising environmentally responsible, green formation of phytosomes that are fully suitable for incorporation into nutraceutical applications. This aligns with Cosmos Health’s broader commitment to sustainable innovation, scientific advancement, and responsible manufacturing.
