The patent, issued to Brainiac’s parent company Ingenuity Brands, spans fruit and vegetable products fortified with omega-3s and choline through February 2040

Brainiac Foods and its parent company, Ingenuity Brands, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a patent covering food products nutritionally enhanced with omega-3s and choline. The patent applies to shelf-stable food and beverage products through February 2040.

“This patent validates our approach to offering essential nutrients through everyday products that kids love and families can feel good about,” said Mark Brooks, CEO and Co-Founder of Brainiac Foods. “Composition-of-matter protection is a significant milestone for our brand as we continue to raise awareness for brain nutrition and work closely with our retail partners to bring more better-for-you options to market. By combining omega-3s and choline in fruit- and vegetable-based formats, like our applesauce pouches, we’re creating a flexible platform for pouches, purées, and other snacks that can truly fill the brain nutrition gap for families.”

The patent’s focus on omega-3s and choline aligns with a broad scientific consensus that these essential nutrients are foundational for brain development and function, supporting memory, focus, mood regulation and brain adaptability across the age spectrum. Brainiac’s unique ability to deliver these nutrients in familiar, great-tasting foods helps meet families where they are. Known for their applesauce and fruit pouches, fruit snacks, juices and more, Brainiac combines premium and clean ingredients with grab-and-go convenience while promoting brain health and overall wellness through its proprietary BrainPack®, a combination of omega-3s and choline that support brain health.

The patent was awarded to Brainiac Co-Founders Jonathan Wolfson, Executive Chairman, and Mark Brooks, CEO, as well as Product Developer Katharine Noakes, all of whom are guided by their experiences as parents and by the company’s Science and Nutrition Advisory Board, comprised of leading pediatricians, neurologists, nutrition scientists and dietitians. With their guidance, Brainiac incorporates scientifically proven benefits into foods families love to eat.
