Registered Nutritionist Launches NI-Based Science-Led Supplement Brand Regulate Health

Friday 18 September 2026

Regulate Health, a new Northern Ireland-based science-led supplement brand, has officially launched with its first product, GLP Peptiva™ – Blood Glucose & Appetite Support.

Founded by Registered Nutritionist April Kember BSc MSc ANutr, Regulate Health was created with a simple ambition: to develop effective, evidence-led supplements that translate emerging nutritional science into straightforward products that fit easily into everyday life.

With over a decade of experience across nutrition and food product development, April has spent her career developing products for some of the UK’s largest food brands and retailers. Regulate Health brings that experience together with her background in clinical nutrition to create a new generation of targeted nutritional supplements.

Introducing GLP Peptiva™

The brand's first launch, GLP Peptiva™, focuses on an area receiving huge attention within nutrition and health: blood glucose control, appetite management and the body's natural GLP-1 response.

GLP-1 and GIP hormones are naturally produced by the body after eating and plays an important role in the regulation of appetite, satiety, blood glucose, digestion insulin response and appetite signalling.

Rather than introducing synthetic GLP-1 hormones like many weight management injections, GLP Peptiva™ has been formulated to support the body's own natural response.

The once-daily, unflavoured powder contains just two carefully selected ingredients: Nextida® GC collagen peptides and chromium.

The research behind Nextida® GC is particularly exciting. In a clinical study, Nextida® GC was shown to:

• Reduce post-meal glucose spikes by 42%
• Increase GLP-1 secretion by 25%
• Increase GIP secretion by 60%
• Slow gastric emptying
• Improve insulin response

A subsequent human confirmation study has since further supported the findings, adding to the growing evidence behind Nextida® GC and its effects on the incretin response and post-meal glucose.

GLP Peptiva™ also contains chromium, which contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.

Science designed for real life

For April, the vision for Regulate Health was clear from the beginning: to combine credible nutritional science with thoughtful product development, creating supplements that are not only evidence-led, but genuinely practical for everyday life.

“One of the things I really wanted to achieve with Regulate Health was to bridge the gap between exciting nutritional research and products people can realistically incorporate into their everyday lives.

We hear so much about GLP-1, blood glucose and appetite at the moment, but GLP-1 is something our bodies naturally produce. I found the research into how specific nutrition could influence these natural pathways fascinating, and that became the starting point for GLP Peptiva.

I wanted the finished product to be evidence-led but incredibly simple: one scoop, once a day, with no complicated routine.”

GLP Peptiva™ is taken as one 10g scoop mixed with 200–240ml of water approximately 30 minutes before your main or most carbohydrate-rich meal of the day.

It is unflavoured, meaning it can easily be incorporated into an existing routine, and each pouch provides a 30-day supply.

For those looking to better support their post-meal blood glucose balance, GLP Peptiva™ has been designed to support appetite regulation, promote steadier post-meal energy and help you feel more in control after eating.

A new Northern Ireland-based brand

The launch marks the beginning of a much bigger vision for Regulate Health, with the business aiming to build a range of science-led supplements centred around real nutritional needs.

For April, being able to share the launch with the Women in Business community is particularly exciting.

“Building Regulate Health from an idea into a product that people can now actually buy has been a huge journey. There have been plenty of challenges along the way, but seeing GLP Peptiva launch and hearing from our first customers has made it incredibly rewarding.

As a new business based here in Northern Ireland, I'm really excited to introduce Regulate Health to the Women in Business community and hopefully to some of the women who may benefit from what we've created.”

GLP Peptiva™ is available to purchase now from Regulate Health at www.regulatehealth.co.uk.
