Research

As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency, we strive to give you as much comfort as possible in our product, through brining you insight into both our production quality and supporting evidence. 

Our Fermented Wheat Germ Extract is very rich in Polyamines.  The three principal Polyamines are Spermidine, Spermine, and Putrescine.  The beneficial natural process that they induce in our bodies is called Autophagy.

There has been significant research on these compounds and topics, supporting a wide range of benefits. 

Below, please find a selection of scientific studies and research articles* for your education.
