Built on research.

Dr. Conor Kerley spent years researching nutrition at PhD and post-doctoral level, first in cardiovascular health and later in broader plant-based nutrition. The research kept pointing at the same conclusion: specific nutrients in the right doses, delivered in evidence-based combinations, have a measurable effect on human outcomes that most supplement products were either ignoring or marketing around.

Phytaphix was founded to do that work properly. Every formulation starts from the peer-reviewed literature. Every ingredient is in the product because the evidence supports it for the goal it's targeting. Nothing is in there for marketing.

Dr. Kerley holds four national and international research awards. Brian Maurer Young Investigator Award (Irish Cardiac Society, 2015), British Hypertension Society Young Investigator Award (2016), Research Dietitian of the Year (Irish Nutrition & Dietetics Institute, 2017), and the NRDF Award (British Association for Cardiovascular Prevention, 2019). His work is indexed on PubMed through the National Institutes of Health, with 26 peer-reviewed publications across cardiovascular health, plant-based nutrition, and human intervention studies.

He was headhunted to a clinical research role in Washington DC, presented award-winning research at the High Blood Pressure Research Council of Australia, and delivered keynote lectures at medical centres in Melbourne, Hobart, and Sydney.

He left lecturing on 30 November 2018, returned to Ireland in January 2019, and enrolled in startup courses with Louth Local Enterprise Office. Phytaphix launched in November 2020, built to do what the research kept pointing at: deliver specific nutrients, in the right doses and forms, in products that earn their place from the human evidence.

Every Phytaphix product ships in 100% recyclable packaging. We're headquartered at Dundalk Institute of Technology, Co. Louth.
