Used in research for its potential liver-protective properties, particularly in supporting hepatocyte function and reducing oxidative stress in liver tissues. Investigated for use in formulations targeting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) due to its ability to modulate lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways. Also studied for antioxidant effects that may contribute to cellular protection against toxin-induced damage. Shows promise in early-stage studies for supporting prostate health, with some evidence of influencing cell cycle regulation in prostate tissue. Primarily utilized in preclinical research and dietary supplement development focused on liver and metabolic health.
