Water chestnut is an annual aquatic herb that naturally grows in freshwater environments such as lakes, ponds.
Water chestnut fruit extract is known as a rich source of antioxidants, containing approximately 13,000 mg/100 g of natural polyphenols and 8,000 mg/100 g of quercetin glycosides.
Enzymatically Modified Isoquercitrin (En-Quercetin™) is a naturally derived antioxidant ingredient with enhanced bioavailability and stability. Its functional properties have been extensively documented through multiple scientific studies.
TJE is a proprietary ingredient formulated by combining water chestnut extract with En-Quercetin™.
Preclinical animal studies suggest that TJE may help support liver function protection and alcohol metabolism, indicating its potential benefits for post-alcohol recovery.
Blood analysis assessing alcohol metabolism over time showed that levels of alcohol, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), acetaldehyde, and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) were favorably modulated in the sample-treated group. These results indicate a tendency toward more stable and/or accelerated alcohol breakdown compared to the control group.
Analysis of liver tissue revealed increased ADH and ALDH activity and reduced levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), a marker of oxidative stress, in the sample-treated group. These findings suggest enhanced alcohol metabolic efficiency and a reduction in alcohol-induced oxidative damage. Overall, the mixed formulation may help mitigate alcohol-related liver stress and support healthy liver function.
