BerriQi®
is a patented ingredient.
Treating or preventing acute or chronic allergic airway inflammation with BerriQi
Treating or preventing immune cell infiltration in lung tissue with BerriQi
Treating or preventing accumulation of collagen fibres in lung tissue with BerriQi
A separate patent encompasses Boysenberry for use in people experiencing deposits of collagen in the airways that are associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, reactive airway disease, airway fibrosis, or airway remodelling.
BerriQi® and M2 Machrophage
Daily BerriQi® consumption, concurrent with ongoing allergen exposure in preclinical models of chronic airway allergic inflammation, resulted in cleared airways, lower numbers of immune cell infiltrates in the lungs, a reduction in tissue swelling, removal of the abnormally deposited collagen fibres, and strengthening of the walls of the major airways, all clearly demonstrated by lung histology.
Explore the role macrophages play in lung health and how their different states affect your recovery time, and learn how BerriQi can help promote this switch.
