Benefits
Your immune system is one of nature’s greatest innovations. The human body produces more than a million new immune cells every ten seconds, and every new cell represents a microscopic universe of health potential. But damaged immune cells can also accumulate, especially as we age. Biological debris in the immune system is linked to some of the most common issues people struggle with in our modern, fast-paced world: fatigue and low energy, disrupted sleep, skin trouble, allergies, stress, mood, brain fog, and an overall lack of vitality. Modern technology has revealed that Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat is a plant with unique nutrient characteristics, including phytochemicals (basically the compounds that make a plant!) that have been shown to have health-promoting effects on immunity, metabolism, and rejuvenation of cells.
HTB Rejuvenate is a unique blend that has been formulated to support rejuvenation of the immune response.*
Ingredient Stories
Our ingredients are carefully sourced, and Big Bold Health is active in funding small family farms and regenerative agriculture (it’s our way of saying thank you to Mother Earth).
Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) Blend
Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB) is a hardy plant that has been farmed in Asia for generations, but is largely unknown in the rest of the world. Modern analyses have revealed that HTB contains significantly higher levels of phytonutrients compared to common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum)—up to a 100-fold increase of certain immune-strengthening flavonoids.* Easy to farm, hard to find, healthy for humans. At Big Bold Health, we think HTB is the next great superfood story.
-
2-HOBA
What is it? A plant chemical that is extremely rare in foods, but it just so happens that Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat is one of the best sources currently known. 2-HOBA’s full name is 2-hydroxybenzylamine, and its being studied for how well it stops the formation of some types of harmful molecules in the body.
-
Rutin, Quercetin, Hesperidin, Luteolin, and Diosmin
Nutritionally speaking, this portfolio of flavonoids is an orchestra, a symphony, a masterpiece of nature’s genius. Each is unique, but together the are wonderous, especially when it comes to the ways they can influence immune function.* Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat is an impressive source of all five members of this very special quintet.
-
Chlorophyllin
In plants, chlorophyll turns light into energy. What can it do for humans? It turns out that it can improve the way the body deals with certain toxins and gets rid of them.* At sufficient levels, chlorophyll can protect DNA and chromosomes—and even help cells repair themselves from damage.*
-
myHMB® (Calcium-β-hydroxy β-methyl butyrate monohydrate)
This nutrient, which is found in alfalfa and other foods, has been studied for immune support and rejuvenation, as well as the ways it helps build, maintain, and protect muscles and lean tissues throughout the body.*
Quality
Here at Big Bold Health, quality is very important to us. We strive to produce products that are ethically and sustainably sourced, evidence-based, and expertly crafted.
