Standardized Cistanche
Life Extension
Overview
This product combines Cistanche Tubulosa extract with a small dose of Vitamin C. While Cistanche shows promise in animal studies for benefits such as improved gut health, neuroprotection, and reduced fatigue, human studies are needed to confirm this. The Vitamin C dose is very low and is unlikely to contribute significantly to the benefits. The overall effectiveness of the product remains uncertain due to the lack of robust clinical evidence.
