Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Volemitol is a naturally occurring polyol found in certain plants, particularly from the genus Volemia, and is known for its potential antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. It works by neutralizing free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress and protecting cells from damage. Volemitol has applications in traditional medicine, where it is used for its potential to enhance immune function and support overall health. Its mechanism involves scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and regulating cellular processes related to inflammation and immune response.
