The Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, or “ORAC score” is a method of measuring the antioxidant capacity of different foods and supplements.

Independent laboratory analysis on Herbatonin demonstrated that it could have up to 958% stronger antioxidant potential and free radical scavenging capacity as compared to synthetic melatonin.*

DPPH is another method used to measure the antioxidant potential by analyzing the capacity to scavenge free radicals.

In vitro research on Herbatonin demonstrated that it could have up to 470% stronger antioxidant potential and free radical scavenging capacity as compared to synthetic melatonin.*

COX-2 is an enzyme responsible for inflammation, swelling and resulting pain.

Melatonin acts as a COX-2 inhibitor, reducing its production and thus inflammation, swelling and potential pain.
In vitro research on Herbatonin demonstrated that it could have up to 640% greater ability to reduce COX-2 enzyme activity as compared to synthetic melatonin.*

Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are by products of cellular metabolism. Overproduction of ROS is associated with cellular, mitochondrial and DNA damage as well as the development of various human diseases, inflammation, and aging.
Higher ROS levels = higher cell damage.

In vitro research on Herbatonin demonstrated that it could have up to 100% great ability to reduce ROS cell damage as compared to synthetic melatonin.* For our full research go to our publication on PubMed at Molecules. 2021 Oct; 26(19): 6087.
