Nektium Introduces Vanizem: A Breakthrough Botanical Extract for Mood, Stress, and Sleep

Nektium has introduced Vanizem, a botanical extract from the West African spice Aframomum melegueta, containing vanilloids 6-shogaol, 6-paradol, and 6-gingerol. A placebo-controlled pilot study involving 30 adults aged 40-50 demonstrated significant improvements in mood, stress reduction, and sleep quality. Participants taking at least 100 mg of Vanizem showed reduced anxiety, tension, fatigue, and depression, while vigor and overall mood disturbance scores improved markedly. The Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire also indicated enhanced sleep quality, with no adverse side effects reported. Vanizem’s efficacy is attributed to its impact on the endocannabinoid system and TRPV1 receptor, with Nektium’s advanced extraction and microencapsulation technologies ensuring its bioactive potency and stability.
