🌟 Exciting News! Our US product, Red Yeast Rice, is a finalist for the Nutraingredient USA Awards 2023! 🌟 Did you know that 80% of Americans have low or moderate cardiovascular health, often requiring multiple medications and devices to manage their cholesterol and blood sugar levels? The vicious cycle of cardiovascular health and diabetes is well-known, but dyslipidemia and AGE accumulation accelerate organ inflammation and lead to such deterioration. Moreover, the Western diet, which is full of AGEs, and COVID-19 have aggravated this already grim scenario. At SunWay, we’re both grateful and thrilled that the judges for the NutraIngredients USA Awards have selected our US ANKASCIN 568-R product as a Finalist in the 2023 Botanical category. Let’s root for Red Yeast Rice to win the championship together!

  “The superior effects of MS and AK in ANKASCIN® 568-R show significant results, from managing glycation and inflammation to improving hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and cognitive health. This novel ingredient is clinically proven, safe, has multiple applications in dietary supplements and functional food, is compliant with EU and US regulations, and provides excellent support for healthy aging.”   According to the WHO, around one in ten people in Europe or US has diabetes, which means that if you go out with your relatives, there’s a good chance that the person you’re arm-in-arm with is someone who has diabetes. Chronic diabetic complications, including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, or Alzheimer’s disease, have been related to advanced glycation end product (AGE) accumulation. Glycation and AGEs lead to accelerated organ aging, thus causing the vicious cycle of tissue glycation and aging. However, the Western diet, which is full of AGEs, and COVID-19 have aggravated this already grim scenario. Reports show that patients with hyperglycemia and COVID-19 have a 2-to-4-fold risk of severe COVID-19 or death than those without diabetes. ANKASCIN® 568-R is a state-of-the-art ingredient containing high MS and AK levels. It addresses the root cause, mainly via PPARγ/Nrf2 pathways, to manage anti-glycation, antioxidant, and anti-inflammation and acts synergistically in improving the impairment of pancreatic β-cell function (blood glucose regulation), resolving lipid plaque accumulation in the blood […]

According to WHO, currently, more than 55 million people live with dementia worldwide, and there are nearly 10 million new cases every year. The most common type (60-70%) of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a progressive disease characterized by memory loss, language breakdown, and eventually, death. The main pathological factor for AD is thought to be the progressive accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides in the brain, generated by the cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by a combination of β-secretases and γ-secretases. Hyperphosphorylation of tau, a microtubule-associated protein which aggregates to form tangles, also damages the brains of patients with AD. This year, we’re excited to announce that ANKASCIN® 568 product has successfully received a health certificate for “Anti-aging” Support. SunWay research demonstrates the protective effect of ANKASCIN® 568 in 4 aging models: Amyloid β-Infused Rats In this study, the effects of dietary administration of ANKASCIN® 568 on memory and learning abilities are confirmed in an animal model of AD rats infused with Aβ40 into the cerebral ventricle. During continuous Aβ40 infusion for 28 days, ANKASCIN® 568 administration potently reverses the memory deficit in the memory task. Aβ40 infusion increases acetylcholinesterase activity, reactive oxygen species, and lipid peroxidation and decreases total antioxidant status and superoxide dismutase activity in brain, but these damages were potently reversed by ANKASCIN® 568 administration. The protection provided […]

The first clinical study, which has been published in Heliyon, documents that Vigiis® 101-LAB significantly increases the bacterial counts of Bifidobacterium spp. and Lactobacillus spp. in feces in just one week, and maintains those elevated counts for four weeks. Thirty-six healthy subjects completed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 4-week study. The administration group took 50 mg Vigiis® 101-LAB /one capsule/day (= 5 billion NTU 101 CFU/day) for four weeks. After just one week of administration, the bacterial counts of Bifidobacterium spp. and Lactobacillus spp. in the feces of the treatment group were significantly higher than the placebo group. After four weeks, the treatment group’s bacterial counts of Bifidobacterium spp. and Lactobacillus spp. were 4.01-fold and 4.25-fold higher than the placebo group. These results indicate that supplementation of Vigiis® 101-LAB significantly increases good bacteria in the gut in just one week and maintains those elevated counts for four weeks. People can benefit from compelling effects of Vigiis® 101-LAB, efficacious and science-supported probiotic. John Pan, President of SunWay Biotech, commented that “It is important to maintain a healthy microbial balance in the gut microbiome with quality and clinically proven ingredients.” For more information, please get in touch with us: globalservice@sunway.cc   Reference: Effects of Vigiis 101-LAB on a healthy population’s gut microflora, peristalsis, immunity, and anti-oxidative capacity: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study.

  Professor Pan Tzu-Ming, the international red yeast rice godfather, has launched his new book “The Red Mold Rice Health Laboratory-Using Red Yeast Rice to Reverse 12 Chronic Diseases backed by Scientific Evidence.” Professor Pan translated 138 SCI international publications, which were dedicated more than 20 years of effort, into easy-to-understand Chinese for the public. The new book launch party was also grandly held in the Shangzhou study room, and it is our honor to invite many heavy hitters to share their experiences.   Truly reverse twelve chronic disease Professor Pan and his team conducted animal experiments and clinical trials through rigorous scientific methods. The research on these 12 major chronic diseases has been summarized and organized in his new book. It is mentioned in the book that the yellow pigment of red yeast rice has a significant effect on blood lipid regulation in animal experiments and clinical trials. As for weight loss, studies have shown that both monascin and ankaflavin have the effect of inhibiting the proliferation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in vitro. Monascin and ankaflavin have such a significant effect because they can cause lipolysis, which can break down fats into their component fatty acids, which are then reassembled to create triglyceride particles.   Wrong red yeast rice products might cause health risks There are two major concerns in […]
