Welcome to Kolfarma
“Through cutting-edge science and passion, we are committed to overcoming health challenges, aiming for a profound and meaningful impact on each individual.”
Who we are
Kolfarma was born in 2009 from research carried out at the University of Genoa on the potential anti-epileptic effect of a milk whey protein, Alpha-Lactalbumin (ALAC) .
Results obtained from clinical studies of serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant drugs on epileptic patients lead to the search for another way to increase the synthesis of serotonin in the central nervous system (CNS), and not its time of action as reported for these drugs. ALAC is identified for this action.
Our commitment
Kolfarma is dedicated to the development of innovative solutions, investing in research and redefining therapeutic and diagnostic paths to improve people's lives.
Sustainability
Our approach consists of creating value for all stakeholders, in order to guarantee a positive and sustainable long-term impact for the system.
Transparency
Our scientific knowledge, our expertise and our innovative spirit are dedicated to achieving a better quality of life.
Food supplements
The food supplement line is based on ALAC, a colostrum whey protein and other molecules with synergistic actions with it.
Foods for special medical purposes
In addition to food supplements, Kolfarma has developed Foods for Special Medical Purposes (AMFS)
for the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsies.
