NUTRIOZ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Advanced Nutrition Technology for Disaster Relief & Public Health in Sri Lanka
Date: December 5, 2025 From: Simas Didzbalis, Founder, Nutrioz (USA) To: US Embassy Colombo, Ministry of Health, WHO Sri Lanka
1. The Urgent Challenge
Sri Lanka is currently facing a dual challenge: chronic micronutrient deficiencies exacerbated by the acute crisis of Cyclone Ditwah.
-
Widespread Deficiency: 93.9% of urban adults in Sri Lanka have low Vitamin D levels; Vitamin B12 deficiency is prevalent among children due to dietary limitations.
-
Disaster Impact: Displaced populations often lack access to clean water. Traditional pill-based supplements are difficult to administer in these hygiene-compromised environments and have lower compliance rates among stressed populations.
2. The Solution: Nutrioz Molecular Spray Technology®
Nutrioz offers a US-manufactured, FDA-compliant solution ideal for emergency settings: High-absorption Oral Sprays.
Why this is better than pills for Sri Lanka right now:
-
No Water Required: The spray is administered sublingually (under the tongue). It eliminates the need for clean drinking water to swallow pills, removing a major barrier in flood zones.
-
Superior Absorption: Bypasses the digestive system for direct uptake through the oral mucosa. This is critical for malnourished individuals whose gut health may be compromised.
-
Hygiene & Logistics:
-
Sterile: Sealed, tamper-evident units prevent contamination.
-
Efficient: One small bottle (30g) contains up to 240 doses (up to 8 months of supply), drastically reducing shipping weight and storage logistics compared to bulk tablets.
-
3. Proposed Products
-
Nutrioz Vitamin D3 (1000 IU/spray): Critical for immune support and respiratory health in crowded displacement camps.
-
Nutrioz Vitamin B-Complex (B12, B6, Folate): Essential for energy metabolism, neurological function, and combating stress-related fatigue.
4. Credibility & Safety
-
US Manufacturing: Produced in an FDA-registered, cGMP-certified facility in Arizona, USA.
-
Innovation Roots: Technology derived from the 2025 NASA Space Apps Challenge, focusing on efficient nutrient delivery in resource-constrained environments.
-
Standards: Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, and rigorously third-party tested.
5. Proposal for Collaboration
We are seeking to collaborate with the Sri Lankan Government and International NGOs to integrate Nutrioz into immediate relief efforts and long-term public health strategies.
We are prepared to:
-
Launch a Pilot Program: Deploy units to a specific flood-affected district to monitor ease of use and efficacy.
-
Supply Chain Partnership: Establish a direct government-level procurement channel to ensure high-quality US supplements reach the populace at an accessible cost.
We welcome a discussion with the Ministry of Health and WHO representatives to formalize this support.
