Sovereign for Coronary Microcirculation & Gastric Digestion: quenches thirst, relieves bloating, protects vessels.

    Cautions & Contraindications

    • Flick ripe fruit with thumb and middle finger to pop open cleanly. Exceptional clinical, dietary, and pediatric safety profile. Safe in pregnancy and lactation in dietary amounts.

    Clinical Applications

    • Coronary microvascular perfusion and endothelial protection (eNOS activation via Resveratrol and Piceid), functional postprandial dyspepsia, and hepatic antioxidant cytoprotection.

    Quality Markers

    Resveratrol & Piceid >= 0.50%, Corilagin & Ellagic Acid >= 0.80% & Total Phenolics >= 3.50 mg GAE/g (HPLC standard)

    Mechanism & Phytochemistry

    1. Resveratrol stimulates eNOS phosphorylation (Ser1177), surging vascular NO release and microvascular blood flow. 2. Organic acids stimulate gastric amylase. 3. Corilagin shields hepatocytes.
