Naturally derived
MHCR-1 is a bioactive ingredient platform—not a synthesized drug.
Advancing pet longevity through bionutrition
Better years, not just more years.
Odacova Health is an evidence-led bionutrition platform. Powered by a 9-year longitudinal canine dataset, our proprietary MHCR-1 bioactive is designed to drive the next generation of clinical longevity for companion animals.
What MHCR-1 is
Science translated into nutrition.
A partner-ready platform built to bring differentiated healthy-aging science into everyday companion animal care.
Mechanism-led
Its scientific rationale is grounded in calorie-restriction-mimetic research and metabolic signaling.
Longitudinally studied
The platform is built on one of the field's rarest evidence bases: a nine-year canine longevity research program spanning molecular, transcriptomic, metabolic, functional, and immune systems.
Built for partners
MHCR-1 is being developed for use across supplements, functional treats and companion animal nutrition.
The evidence
Signals across multiple systems.
Our research program evaluates healthy aging as a multidimensional biology—not a single biomarker.
Gene expression
Studies observed directional shifts in age-associated transcriptomic patterns in treated animals.
Glucose regulation
Longitudinal observations identified favorable trends in age-related glucose trajectories.
Physical function
Serial measures provided a functional complement to the molecular and metabolic findings.
The commercial platform
Designed to travel across formats.
We are building the definitive bionutrition ingredient and evidence platform—not a consumer brand. Our model is centered on commercial licensing and exclusive strategic integrations, providing global strategic partners with a fully validated, market-ready longevity asset.
Supplements
Precise daily formats for science-led healthy-aging propositions.
Functional nutrition
Ingredient integration opportunities across treats, toppers and pet food applications.
Strategic development
Flexible pathways for animal-health, nutrition and commercialization partners.
Leadership
Built for science and commercialization.
A team spanning geroscience, veterinary R&D, strategic licensing, and corporate development.
