Lappa
Nestmann
Overview
The effectiveness of this proprietary liquid extract blend is difficult to fully ascertain due to limited specific product testing and the nature of some ingredients having only preclinical or small-scale human evidence. While some individual components like Burdock, Sarsaparilla, and Thyme show promise for various benefits (e.g., hepatoprotection, anti-inflammation, cough relief), the doses within this blend and the synergistic effects are not well-established. Licorice has more established benefits for digestive health. Acacia is a known prebiotic fiber. Heartsease and White Birch have very weak evidence for their inclusion in a general health supplement.
The Good

Some ingredients (Lappa, Sarsaparilla, Thyme, Licorice) have preclinical or emerging human evidence for potential health benefits.

The Bad
Proprietary blend makes exact dosages of individual ingredients unclear.

Some ingredients (Heartsease, Butternut, White Birch) have very limited or weak scientific evidence for general health benefits.
