Supported by Trial 1

Mechanism of action

1

Anti-inflammatory polyphenols

Anthocyanins and related polyphenols modulate inflammatory signaling and immune-cell behavior in the airways, easing inflammatory responses in models of lung stress.

2

Tissue recovery support

The polyphenols support resolution of inflammation and repair processes in airway tissue, the basis for the recovery positioning.
