The Science of Relief: Real Studies Behind Our Ingredients
At Nurovita, we believe that "natural" shouldn't mean "unproven."
While we draw inspiration from centuries of traditional herbalism, we only select ingredients that have withstood the scrutiny of modern science. Before a single drop goes into our bottles, we look for data.
Below, we have compiled the actual peer-reviewed studies and clinical trials that validate the ingredients in our formulas.
1. Horse Chestnut Extract (Aesculus Hippocastanum)
The Vein Defender
Horse Chestnut is widely considered the "Gold Standard" for natural vein support. Its active compound, Aescin, is clinically proven to support the walls of veins and reduce leakage.
• The Study: Horse chestnut seed extract for chronic venous insufficiency.
• The Findings: This massive review analyzed 17 clinical trials. The conclusion? Horse Chestnut extract significantly reduced leg pain, swelling (edema), and itching compared to a placebo. It was found to be safe and effective for treating Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI).
• Published In: Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews
(Note: The Cochrane Library is considered the single most authoritative database for medical reviews in the world.)

2. Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola)
The Micro-Circulation Booster
While Horse Chestnut works on the large veins, Centella Asiatica works on the tiny capillaries (microcirculation) and the skin's connective tissue.
• The Study: Titrated extract of Centella asiatica (TECA) in the treatment of venous insufficiency of the lower limbs.
• The Findings: Researchers found that Centella Asiatica extract significantly improved "microcirculatory parameters"—meaning it helped blood flow better through tiny vessels—and measurably reduced ankle swelling.

3. Ginger Root (Zingiber Officinale)
The Inflammation Fighter
Ginger is not just a spice; it is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. We use it topically to stimulate warmth and flow.
• The Study: Anti-inflammatory effects of Zingiber officinale in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated...
• The Findings: This study highlighted that the gingerols in Ginger are capable of inhibiting the production of nitric oxide and proinflammatory cytokines—effectively "turning down the volume" on inflammation signals in the body.

4. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)
The Joint Supporter
MSM is a naturally occurring sulfur compound that is critical for maintaining healthy connective tissue and reducing joint inflammation.
• The Study: Efficacy of methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) in osteoarthritis pain of the knee: a pilot clinical trial.
• The Findings: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, patients taking MSM reported significant decreases in pain and improvements in physical function compared to those taking a placebo.

5. Diosmin
The Flavonoid Powerhouse
Diosmin is a flavonoid derived from citrus fruits that is famously used to improve venous tone and lymphatic drainage.
• The Study: Clinical efficacy of Diosmin in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency.
• The Findings: Clinical data shows that Diosmin helps reduce venous capacitance (pooling), distensibility, and emptying time. It is widely recognized as a first-line support for reducing the sensation of "heavy legs."

6. Arnica (Arnica Montana)
The Bruise & Recovery Specialist
Arnica has been used since the 1500s for bruises and trauma. Modern science has investigated its ability to speed up recovery.
• The Study: Effect of Arnica D30 in marathon runners. Pooled results from two double-blind placebo controlled studies.
• The Findings: While results vary, studies have looked at Arnica's ability to reduce muscle soreness and cell damage after intense physical stress, supporting its use in recovery gels.
