Key Benefits / Research Highlights

• Modulates the central nervous system and endocrine responses
• May reduce oxidative stress and promote cellular repair
• Supports myocardial contractility (heart muscle strength)
• Currently studied for major depressive disorder (MDD)
• Inhibits somatostatin secretion (affecting GH and other pathways)
• May normalize blood pressure and heart rate
• Supports thermoregulation and the lymphokine system (in animal models)
• Promotes healthy circadian rhythm and deeper restorative sleep
• Reduces pain perception (analgesic effect)
• Non-addictive, unlike pharmaceutical sleep aids
• May support HGH modulation and thereby influence muscle/bone repair
• Potential cancer-protective effects under research

Emerging Research Areas

• Neuroprotection: Potential role in Alzheimer’s and epilepsy (preclinical).
• Metabolic Health: Early evidence suggests insulin sensitivity support.
