KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia<\/span><\/span>, July 15, 2024<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — In a significant breakthrough for the nutraceutical industry, Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali, a proprietary extract of the traditional herb Eurycoma longifolia<\/i> from Biotropics Malaysia, has been spotlighted in a recently published study for its potent antiviral properties. This new research, appearing in the Malaysian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, further solidifies Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali’s reputation as a holistic ingredient for healthy aging and immune support.<\/p>\n

The patented and standardized Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali extract is derived from Eurycoma longifolia <\/i>root, a plant with a rich history of traditional use across Southeast Asia<\/span> to promote vitality and overall wellness. Modern scientific validation now supports these traditional claims, showcasing Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali as a powerful, ethically sourced plant-based ingredient.<\/p>\n

The latest study demonstrates Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali’s ability to inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-191<\/sup>. This finding is noteworthy as it not only underscores the ingredient’s antiviral efficacy but also confirms earlier research highlighting its immune-boosting capabilities, such as significant improvement in overall immunity, and ‘immunity age’ by over 4 years through SVI (Score of Immunological Vigor). By reinforcing the immune system and providing antiviral protection, Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali emerges as a versatile and indispensable component in the realm of natural health products.<\/p>\n

The proprietary extraction process of Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali ensures an optimal concentration of biomarker compounds essential to its multifaceted health benefits, including enhanced immune response2<\/sup>, reduced inflammation2<\/sup>, and effective viral inhibition3<\/sup>. This makes Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali an ideal ingredient for nutraceutical to meet the growing market trend towards holistic health products.<\/p>\n

“We are thrilled to share these recent findings which affirm the efficacy of Physta\u00ae Tongkat Ali,” said Nik Fahmi Mokhtar<\/span>, Head of Performance Ingredients at Biotropics Malaysia. “Besides already having traditional application as a remedy for fever and a febrifuge, this new study further adds on to our list of immune support evidence such a clinical study on immunomodulation in Japan<\/span> and anti-viral study on dengue. It is important for us to build on these areas as the patented application for Physta\u00ae (for immunity and anti-viral) is novel.<\/p>\n

Biotropics will also be present at the upcoming NBio Showcase, 17-18 July 2024<\/span> at World Trade Center Kuala Lumpur<\/span>, booth 111B<\/span> and Bio Asia \u2013 Taiwan Collaboration Forum, 26 July 2024  at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Hall.<\/p>\n
