Quincy Bioscience
Privately Held
Founded 2004

Quincy Bioscience is a biotechnology company based in Middleton, Wisconsin, centered on the discovery and advancement of technologies for the brain. Their work traces back to 2004 and a partnership with a University of Wisconsin Milwaukee neuroscience lab, building on earlier research into apoaequorin, a compound originally discovered in jellyfish in 1962. That research has since been published in peer reviewed journals and presented at neuroscience conferences worldwide. Out of it came Prevagen, the company's flagship formula and the reason Quincy Bioscience first came to our attention.

We introduced Prevagen in store in the late 2000's, many years prior to its nationwide release. What drew us in was the uniqueness of its core ingredient, Apoaequorin, along with early research looking at plaque formation in the brain, an area closely associated with Alzheimer's. Like many brands working in that space, Prevagen has since pulled back from making specific or implied claims, and today's formula is positioned more broadly for everyday brain and cognitive support. Because of our meticulous product standards at the HEALTH HUT, we rarely carry the heavily marketed brands typically found in mass-market retail. Yet despite its widespread mainstream presence, we continue to proudly offer Prevagen for that exclusive formula, the ethics of the brand, and because we've seen it work for ourselves and for our customer family.
