The clinical study evaluated Nephelium lappaceum (rambutan) peel extract, rich in the ellagitannin geraniin for its ability to protect the skin against inflammation induced by external irritants. The extract was investigated using in vitro cell-based models exposed to UV radiation, infrared (IR), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and retinoic acid (RA), followed by human… Read More
In a randomized, double-blind study of post-COVID adults, a single 50 mg dose of a plant-based supplement reduced mitochondrial, iNOS, and NOX2-driven oxidative stress more broadly than 1000 mg vitamin C. It also increased bioavailable nitric oxide, unlike vitamin C. Both reduced TNFα-induced ROS. Results suggest stronger antioxidant and immune-support effects with the plant-based blend… Read More
A large prospective study involving more than 354,000 participants combined MRI imaging and blood proteomics to uncover the biological mechanisms behind coffee’s long-observed liver health benefits. Regular coffee consumption was associated with lower liver fat, fibrosis, inflammation, and iron accumulation, along with a reduced risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer, and liver-related mortality. Interestingly, similar benefits… Read More
Urinary health is emerging as a key innovation space within men’s healthy aging, driven by rising awareness around Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), which commonly affect men above 45 years. Consumer demand is shifting beyond conventional prostate support toward solutions that improve urinary flow, bladder function, nocturia, and overall quality… Read More
Vegan Sesamcoll (SCP), a plant-derived peptide preparation obtained from enzymatically hydrolyzed Sesamum indicum (sesame) proteins. SCP demonstrated dose dependent antioxidant activity, exhibiting ABTS radical scavenging activity of up to 88.9% and DPPH radical scavenging activity of up to 76.6% at the highest tested concentration. In human dermal fibroblasts, SCP significantly inhibited collagenase activity by approximately… Read More
