How you
get there.

These biological pathways drive progress toward inflammation control.

supported
Nrf2
Nrf2 Activation

Nrf2 is the master regulator of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, catalase, HO-1).

supported
NF-κB
NF-κB Inhibition

NF-κB is a master inflammatory switch. Inhibiting it reduces chronic inflammation.

supported
HO-1
Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1)

HO-1 is a cytoprotective enzyme with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

emerging$$
adaptogen
Schisandra Chinensis

Adaptogen studied for liver protection and stress resilience.

supported$$
fatty-acid
Omega-3 (EPA/DHA)

EPA and DHA. Anti-inflammatory. Supports brain and cardiovascular health.

established$$
vitamin
Vitamin C

Required for collagen synthesis. Regenerates vitamin E.

established$
mineral
Selenium

Cofactor for glutathione peroxidase. Antioxidant defense.

established$
antioxidant
CoQ10 (Ubiquinone / Ubiquinol)
