“Rare ingredients with health-promoting properties are effective only if they are safe and widely available to those who could benefit from them. Jing-Ke Weng, co-founder of DoubleRainbow Biosciences (Double Rainbow) said: “Gastrogin is a powerful natural pain reliever and we are excited about its potential to improve human health.”na
It is the Massachusetts-based company’s second bioengineered ingredient and was introduced through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Landkind. “World’s First Sustainable Dietary Supplement Company”Its first ingredient LK-01 is pure salidroside, a traditionally plant-derived adaptogen Rhodiola rosealaunched last summer, to supplement cognitive and motor skills.
Possibility of gastrodinna
