Who are we?
The De Pannemaeker family founded its pharmacy in the center of Ghent in 1850 and a century later, in 1965, Revogan was founded by pharmacist Jean-Pierre De Pannemaeker. From the start, we collaborated with the medical world, enabling Revogan to offer well-founded solutions for any nutrition-related condition. Besides specific foods, we also market food supplements for those struggling with allergies, intolerances or other medical problems.
Our mission: “Making people happier and healthier with proven nutritional solutions”
Our main commitments
We are committed to providing science-based solutions in nutrition and food supplements to our various target groups.
We distribute both existing and our own brands, always at the best price/quality ratio so that our solutions are accesible to everyone. People’s well-bein and health are always the central focus.
Our expertise
GLUTEN FREE
It is estimated that one in a hundred people suffer from gluten intolerance, but barely one-tenth are aware of it. Besides developing our own brands such as Nogluten and Noproten, Revogan also distributes a wide range of gluten-free products. These are all top products with their own character.
MALNUTRITION
Up to 70% of 75+ year olds in Belgium are at risk of malnutrition due to chewing and swallowing problems. From the age of 70, the natural amount of collagen decreases by 40% per year, while the need for protein intake is double that of young adults. Revogan distributes a wide range of enriched and clinical foods. The high-protein products are tasty, have an authentic taste, stimulate appetite and optimize compliance. Solutions from breakfast to dinner, including snacks and desserts.
SWALLOWING DIFFICULTIES
Up to 55% of elderly people have problems with swallowing normally. After a brain injury (for example, a CVA, an accident or a brain tumor), a disorder of the nervous system (such as Parkinson’s or ALS) or after surgery in the head and neck area, disorders in the swallowing process can occur. Thus, adequate eating for people with dysphagia is not evident. For fear of choking or because eating requires a lot of energy, they deliberately eat as little as possible. Appetite also decreases. Many people with swallowing disorders are at risk of malnutrition. We offer tasty enriched foods with an adapted texture (IDDSI) to help them eat safely again.
FOOD SENSITIVITIES
1 person in 10 suffers from a food hypersensitivity. This causes discomfort that is often preventable. When food hypersensitivity is of an allergic nature, it is called a food allergy, in the other cases a food intolerance. Examples of food intolerances due to enzyme deficiencies are lactose intolerance, complex carbohydrate intolerance and gluten intolerance… The simplest solution is to eliminate the triggering food factors from the diet, but this is how nutritional deficiencies can arise in your diet. Enzyme therapy is therefore a good alternative.
