Natural plant extracts with unique active compounds that work in synergy and naturally enhanced bioavailability, all in a single daily dose. The formula works as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and adaptogen to target the root causes of early ageing and chronic illness. 

Holly Williamson, Founder, lead Chemist and Molecular Biologist.

STMNA Bioactives founder and formulator is an expert in biochemistry. She carefully chose six potent plant extracts each with bioactive compounds that are clinically proven to improve daily health as well as healthy ageing.

Each ingredient works in synergy, meaning that they work better together compared to the individual bioactive. The formula also has naturally enhanced bioavailability. This means you absorb the compounds much more easily, so you get their full health benefit.

1. Plant Extract Name:

Curcuma longa rhizome (Turmeric) extract

Bioactive compound:

Curcumin

Dosage (IN 2 CAPSULES):

210 mg of extract

Equivalent to 200 mg of curcumin

Curcumin has been used traditionally for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine to treat inflammation, digestion and liver concerns. Scientific research in the 70’s revealed that curcumin had a number a therapeutic potentials. However, it was still not commercialised due to low bioavailability.

Current clinical studies focus on naturally improving bioavailability so that the benefits are much more potent. It has been shown in scientific research to have the benefits below and more.

• Anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant
• Relieves symptoms of mild arthritis/ osteoarthritis
• Relieves mild joint pain and inflammation
• Helps maintain a healthy cholesterol and blood lipids

2. Plant extract NAME:

Boswellia serrata (gum resin) extract

Vioactive compound:
Boswellic Acids

DOSAGE (IN 2 CAPSULES):
400 mg of extract
Equivalent to 260 mg of Boswellic acids.

Boswellia serrata is otherwise known as Frankincense and has been used traditionally as an incense. It has also many traditional ayurvedic uses to treat inflammatory conditions.

Research has shown that Boswellia works in synergy with curcumin to reduce pain and inflammation better than if they were taken alone.

• Anti-inflammatory
• Relieves symptoms of mild arthritis/ osteoarthritis
• Relieves mild joint pain and inflammation
• Helps maintain a healthy cholesterol and blood lipids

3. Plant extract NAME:

Vitis vinifera (grape seed) extract

Bioactive compound:

Procyanidins

Dosage (in 2 capsules):

100 mg of extract

Equivalent to 80 mg of procyanidins

Curcumin has been used traditionally for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine to treat inflammation, digestion and liver concerns. Scientific research in the 70’s revealed that curcumin had a number a therapeutic potentials. However, it was still not commercialised due to low bioavailability.

Current clinical studies focus on naturally improving bioavailability so that the benefits are much more potent. It has been shown in scientific research to have the benefits below and more.

• Anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant
• Relieves symptoms of mild arthritis/ osteoarthritis
• Relieves mild joint pain and inflammation
• Helps maintain a healthy cholesterol and blood lipids

4. Plant extract NAME:

Withania somnifera root (ashwagandha) extract

Bioactive compound:

Withanolides

DOSAGE (IN 2 CAPSULES):

200 mg of extract

Equivalent to 10 mg of withanolides

Ashwagandha has been used for thousands of years in traditional Ayurvedic medicine to treat stress and improve sleep quality.

Modern science has revealed that the active compounds in ashwagandha are called withanolides and are considered adaptogens. They protect the body from outside stressors such as environmental, emotional or physical stress.

• Adaptogen - helps the body adapt to stress
• Improves energy levels and stamina
• Reduces brain fog
• Improves sleep quality

5. Plant Extract Name:

Reynoutria japonica root (resveratrol) extract

Bioactive compound:

Resveratrol

Dosage (in 2 capsules):

200 mg of extract

Equivalent to 196 mg of Resveratrol (trans)

Resveratrol is a well-known molecule found in the skin of red wine grapes. It is famous as it was found in mice models to reverse the signs of ageing. Human clinical trials have not been able to prove this theory yet.

However, this polyphenol molecule is an antioxidant and therefore has scientifically proven health benefits.

Resveratrol usually has poor bioavailability, but when combined with piperine and grapeseed, it naturally increases the absorption substantially.

• Antioxidant - reduces free radical damage in body cells
• We source our resveratrol from a plant native to Japan.
• The trans structure of resveratrol is the most active in the body
• In plants, resveratrol is synthesised to protect against mechanical damage, fungal infections and UV damage.

6. Plant Extract Name:

Piper nigrum (black pepper) extract

Bioactive compound:

Piperine

DOSAGE (IN 2 CAPSULES):

10 mg of extract

Equivalent to 9.5 mg of piperine

Black pepper has been used traditionally in Indian cooking whenever combined with turmeric to help with absorption. It is also used in Ayurvedic medicine.

Piperine has been shown in scientific studies to improve the abroption of curcumin and resveratrol. It does this by inhibiting an enzyme that metabolises those molecules into inactive compounds.

• Increases the absorption of curcumin by 20 times
• Increases the absorption of resveratrol by 15 times
