Israeli-based functional gummy specialist, TopGum Industries has delivered two key new lines focused on boosting cognitive and eye health, amid a wider growth trend within the segment, writes Neill Barston.
The business, which has also now taken on production facilities in the US, adding to its core Middle East location, has continued to evolve a wide range of offerings for the confectionery sector.
As the business noted, the series is led by its Focus Gummy, formulated to support concentration and long-term cognitive resilience. Each 3g cherry flavored gummy combines a blend of natural nootropics and adaptogenics.
Significantly, the firm cited Innova Market Insight’s “Top Health & Nutrition Trends for 2026” which revealed that healthy aging is no longer a strictly “elderly” category.
According to the research, the broader segment has has transformed into a preventative, cross-generational movement. This is backed-up by latest figures that have shown 73% of consumers worldwide now rate healthy aging as “extremely important” or “very important,” making longevity a top personal priority.
Moreover, half of consumers report a strong concern about mental health, stress, and sleep. As the company observed, thi is driving heightened demand for ingredients bolstering the gut-brain axis.
For its part, TopGum’s Focus Gummy includes 100mg lion’s mushroom extract, hailed for its benefits on immunity and neuroprotective properties; 75mg Brahmi, prized in Ayurvedic medicine as a brain tonic; gotu kola extract, used to reduce anxiety and improve cognition; and vitamin B12 and folic acid.
According to the company, its blend of botanicals in the red, bear-shaped chew naturally harnesses powerful antioxidants that is reportedly shown to help protect brain cells and provide proactive cognitive support.
Furthermore, the Focus Gummy is sweetened with TopGum’s proprietary, Gummiceuticals plant-based prebiotic fiber matrix, which allows for formulation without added sugar and no compromise on the sweet fruity flavor consumers expect.
Additional range
Another highlight of this new nutraceutical gummy line is a mango gummy targeting eye care. Each dome-shaped gummy contains 10mg trans-lutein and 2mg zeaxanthin isomers sourced from marigold flowers. This advanced, branded carotenoid formula is clinically backed to help shield eyes from age-related decline and modern blue light exposure. Its powerful antioxidants support macular health, helping to reduce oxidative stress in retinal cells, support long-term visual acuity, and keeping vision sharp.
“Longevity is changing the way we think about cognitive and visual wellness, as these are often the first systems that tend to decline with age,” informs Eyal Shohat, CEO of TopGum.
“Longevity for many is not just about extending life span but maintaining wellness and independence. Consumers are actively seeking natural ways to maintain mental fitness and stay active. It’s not just about reacting to symptoms, for many, it’s to try and prevent them. This new collection has been crafted to deliver on this in a delicious and convenient format.”
In addition, to its lead line, there is also a peach flavored saffron gummy that contains 40mg of saffron extract (Crocus sativus) plus prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharide fiber from chicory root. Saffron is best known for its potential to balance emotional wellbeing, and stress management. Creatine Pro is a raspberry flavored gummy that packs in a potent 1.5g dose of creatine monohydrate for mental clarity and physical vitality.
Other compositions in this collection include a functional mushroom complex gummy featuring a blend of cordyceps, reishi, lion’s mane, turkey tail, and six other varieties; a B12 gummy with 1000mcg of methylcobalamin—the highly bioavailable, active form of vitamin vital for nerve health and function. The gummies can be custom designed to meet desired flavors, shapes, colors, and formulations.
