Pharmacokinetics innovation1

Vazguard® shows an optimal absorption: in a human study on 60 participants, 20 receiving Vazguard®, demonstrates a 2.5-fold increase in its bioabsorption compared to the unformulated extract.

Metabolic health2

In a double-blind placebo-controlled study, Vazguard® could significantly optimize by -12% the visceral adipose tissue (VAT p<0,0001) in over 60 volunteers:

- significant results could be observed within 1 month;
- the optimization of VAT translated into a global improvement of the glycolipidemic profile;
- the improvement of the lipid profile could also be observed in a wide population in terms of age and gender compared to baseline: total cholesterol, LDL, LDL/HDL ratio, Apo-B/Apo-A ratio;
- a moderate optimization of glycemia was observed, along with a more significant beneficial effect on insulin resistence parameters (HOMA);
- positive modulation of body composition related to parameters such as fat mass and body weight;
- the supplementation supported also the normalization of liver function as reflected by transaminases.
