Institut Kurz has developed a groundbreaking software to predict the intriguing effects of food ingredients on human cells, organs, and the entire body. Our revolutionary software integrates cellular dynamics, organ-level interactions, and systemic outcomes, providing a sophisticated understanding of how food shapes health and well-being.
Formed during aging or from heat-treated foods, Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) are linked to diseases like cardiovascular issues, Alzheimer’s and osteoporosis. Institut Kurz has developed advanced methods to measure AGEs in food, in human tissue and in human cells. We are able to test the efficacy of your nutritional supplement or your special food ingredient with respect to suppressing or even cleaning up AGEs in the body. As innovators in AGEs analysis, we provide critical insights into their impact on health and nutrition.
Institut Kurz proudly unveils the ORAC-CAA Combination Test, a revolutionary approach to evaluating the antioxidative properties of your products.

Key benefits include: Comprehensive Analysis: Measures both chemical potential and cellular performance. Real-Life Relevance: Assesses how antioxidants work within living cells. Product Improvement: A valuable tool for optimizing cosmetics, nutrition, and food products. Elevate your product testing with this innovative solution. Contact us to learn more!
How Can You Prove That a Health Claim Is True? To prove a health claim, the gold standard is a 30-year randomized study, but this is rarely feasible. Accepted alternatives focus on changes in specific biomarkers (e.g., reduced F2-isoprostanes for vitamin C's antioxidant effect), endorsed by EFSA. We propose a modern approach: testing human organ cells in vitro and simulating whole-body responses in silico. This method offers a comprehensive and credible alternative to traditional short-term biomarker studies.
