Mechanism of Action

This extract operates through a rich blend of phytochemicals including carbohydrates, glycosides, alkaloids, proteins, amino acids, phytosterols, tannins, and flavonoids.

Its notable wound healing capacity is potentially mediated by increasing collagen concentration and stabilizing collagen fibers within the skin matrix.
