Butterbur Extract with Standardized Rosmarinic Acid
For nearly three decades, doctors in Germany have used a standardized extract of the herb butterbur for their patients suffering from nasal discomfort and its related problems. Butterbur's main active ingredient is petasin, a phytochemical that may reduce spasms in smooth muscle, thus relaxing swollen nasal membranes (34).
Butterbur Extract with Standardized Rosmarinic Acid contains a patented butterbur extract. State-of-the-art technology allows for standardization of butterbur's key active ingredients while ensuring that the extract is free of any undesirable compounds.
This formula also contains standardized rosmarinic acid, a plant polyphenol derived from rosemary leaf. Rosmarinic acid helps to regulate inflammatory responder cells, thus providing effective, temporary relief while supporting healthy immune function and normal respiratory function(35-38). Luteolin, another plant flavonoid, has been shown to help maintain healthy DNA and support a healthy inflammatory process (39-44). Also included is perilla leaf extract. When enriched with rosmarinic acid, perilla leaf extract has been shown to provide significant seasonal support for the body (45).
