Product Efficacy and Application:

Pharmaceutical (neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, metabolic disorder treatments, immune diseases, wound healing, diabetic complications) , Nutraceuticals/Health Supplements (cognitive health, anti-fatigue, anti-aging, immune support, sports nutrition, sleep aids, energy restoration, thiamine deficiencies) , Cosmetics (anti-aging skincare, skin brightening/whitening, photoprotection, wound healing, wrinkle reduction) , Food Industry (food antioxidant, functional food ingredient).

Product Performance:

Acts as a potent antioxidant, scavenging reactive oxygen species and inhibiting lipid oxidation. It is an antiglycating agent, reducing the formation of Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs). Functions as an intramuscular pH buffer, delaying muscle fatigue and enhancing exercise performance. Shows neuroprotective effects and may improve cognitive function. Considered a geroprotector with anti-aging mechanisms, potentially extending cell lifespan and reducing telomere shortening. Modulates immune function. Supports wound healing. May improve cardiac contractility and support blood pressure regulation. Can contribute to lowering blood sugar by improving insulin sensitivity. Capable of chelating heavy metal ions.
