stilbene is an active molecule from the bark of the tree with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical safety of a standardized extract (PME) containing 90% pterostilbene (200 mg per day) in healthy adults. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 60 healthy adult participants (27 males and 33 females) were randomized to receive PME-100 mg or placebo capsule twice a day for two months. The primary objectives of the study were to assess any changes in laboratory parameters, vital signs, and the occurrence of adverse events from screening to the final visit. Serum antioxidant enzyme levels were evaluated as a secondary outcome. The hematological, lipid, glycemic, thyroid profiles and liver and renal functions remained within the normal range in all participants, with no difference between PME and placebo. Vital signs, including blood pressure, pulse rate, body weight, body mass index and electrocardiogram, did not reveal any significant differences between the PME and placebo groups at the beginning and end of the study. No serious adverse events were observed in any participant throughout the study period. The serum antioxidant profile was not significantly different between the treatment groups, although the glutathione levels were relatively higher in the PME group. Scientific evaluation of clinical safety of standardized extract is mandatory for its use as a supplement for various health benefits. The results of this study convincingly establish the safety of PME (>90% Pterostilbene) at 200 mg/day (100 mg bid) for human use. The study was approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee of BGS Global Institute of Medical Sciences & Hospital, Bangalore with the registration number CTRI/2019/08/020736.
二苯乙烯是一种来自树树皮的活性分子,具有抗氧化和抗炎特性。本研究旨在评估一种含有 90%对苯二酚(每天 200mg)的标准化提取物(PME)在健康成年人中的临床安全性。在一项随机、双盲、安慰剂对照研究中,60 名健康成年参与者(27 名男性和 33 名女性)被随机分为每天两次服用 PME-100mg 或安慰剂胶囊,持续两个月。该研究的主要目的是评估从筛选到最终访问期间任何实验室参数、生命体征和不良事件的变化。血清抗氧化酶水平被评估为次要结果。所有参与者的血液学、脂质、血糖、甲状腺谱以及肝肾功能均保持在正常范围内,PME 和安慰剂之间无差异。生命体征,包括血压、脉搏率、体重、体重指数和心电图,在研究开始和结束时,PME 和安慰剂组之间没有显示出任何显著差异。在整个研究期间,没有观察到任何参与者出现严重不良事件。血清抗氧化谱在治疗组之间没有显著差异,尽管 PME 组的谷胱甘肽水平相对较高。标准化提取物的临床安全性的科学评估对于将其用作各种健康益处的补充是强制性的。本研究的结果令人信服地确立了 PME(>90%对苯二酚)在每天 200mg(每天 100mg,每日两次)剂量下用于人类使用的安全性。该研究得到了班加罗尔 BGS 全球医学科学与医院机构伦理委员会的批准,注册号为 CTRI/2019/08/020736。
