Product Information

• Name: 3-Ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (EHBA) is a functional gene that has been shown to have anti-oxidant properties. EHBA is capable of scavenging free radicals and reactive oxygen species, and is therefore thought to be a potential treatment for diseases caused by peroxide and aldehydes. It has also been shown to reduce the production of vanillyl alcohol, which is associated with pain in tissues such as the trigeminal nerve. The anti-oxidant properties of EHBA are thought to be due to its ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, and DNA damage. EHBA can be administered orally or topically.
