5. Pharmacological ActionOver the years, approximately 500 patents have been filed for the use of polyprenols in treating various diseases, with thousands of publications—including research articles, conference reports, and dissertations—dedicated to this topic. The therapeutic effects of these compounds were so profound that they initially seemed implausible. It took about 40 years to dispel these doubts.
Research revealed that impairments in polyprenol synthesis contribute to a wide range of disorders—from skin diseases to Down syndrome.
Polyprenols represent a completely new, ninth class of hepatoprotectors, which are currently absent from the global market of bioactive supplements.
