The Pairing of AIMega and BioVivify
Back in 2005 when AIMega was introduced to the product lineup, omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids (EFAs) that the body cannot synthesize were made available in the encapsulated seed oils of organic flax, sunflower and sesame.
This plant-based source of EFAs contributes to the structure and function of every cell in the human body, being essential healthy fats that should be part of everyone’s daily dietary intake. Given the cellular importance of omega-3 and -6, it’s no surprise that taking AIMega is also like applying a restorative cosmetic to skin cells from the inside out.

With the introduction of BioVivify in 2022, AIM launched a nutricosmetic that helps hydrate and smoothen skin while enhancing its elasticity and reducing fine lines. The primary ingredient is AstaReal® astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant sourced from microalgae.
Astaxanthin enhances the synthesis of collagen, an essential protein produced by the body. Collagen is used as a building block for bones, muscles, cartilage, other connective tissue and, most visibly, for skin. The aging process reduces collagen production, making supplementation with BioVivify a vegan way to boost the body’s ability to synthesize collagen and help protect it from damage.
Seeing as AIMega provides essential fatty acids and BioVivify supports the production of an essential protein, taken together they deliver complementary supplements that work internally at combating aging skin. And there’s more to this pairing of products.
Like omega-3, astaxanthin is incorporated into cell membranes, being a fat-soluble nutrient. Taking omega-3 that is sourced from seed oil increases the absorption of astaxanthin.1
The combined benefits of AIMega and BioVivify form a fine supplemental pair for improving the appearance and health of skin.
