Free Nutritional AdvisorApigenin is a powerful flavonoid that helps fight the signs of aging and supports numerous aspects of health.
- Supports longevity by inhibiting CD38, a harmful enzyme that decreases NAD+ levels
- Provides antioxidant benefits
- Supports mood, heart and brain health
- Enhances sleep quality
Research-Supported Benefits:
Supports Longevity. Apigenin has been shown to inhibit CD38, a harmful enzyme that decreases NAD+ levels. Inhibition of CD38 helps keep NAD+ levels stable to support healthy aging processes and reduce the risk of premature aging. (1,2)Provides Antioxidant Benefits. The aging process and risk of age-related health issues can be accelerated by free radicals. Antioxidants are a way to help curb free-radical activity. Apigenin’s antioxidant properties have been proven to fight free-radical damage, tackle oxidative stress, reduce signs of premature aging and reduce the risk of age-related health concerns. (3)
Promotes Heart Health. Aging can cause changes to heart function and blood vessels. In fact, adults over the age of 65 are more likely to suffer from a heart event compared to younger people. The most common sign of heart health aging is a change to the arteries, which can become stiff, harden and fill with fat deposits leading to high blood pressure. Apigenin can help decrease certain heart health blood markers, reduce blood pressure and improve blood circulation. (4)
Enhances Sleep Quality. Poor sleep quality is associated with accelerated aging. Research indicates that apigenin has a positive effect on sleep. (5,6)
Supports Brain Health. With aging comes symptoms of brain decline such as impaired memory. Apigenin helps protect the brain from damage caused by oxidative stress, which can lead to a decline in cognitive function. Apigenin may increase cognitive function, improve memory formation and enhance overall mental clarity. (7)
Supports Mood. Studies have shown that apigenin can help reduce feelings of worry, overwhelm, and stress, resulting in improved mood. (8)
Aids in Testosterone Maintenance. Apigenin may support healthy testosterone levels and prevent the decrease in testosterone commonly seen in aging males. (9)

- As you age, levels of NAD+, a key nutrient in the body, naturally declines at a rate of 1% per year. Reduced levels of NAD+ contribute to a variety of age-related health concerns including impaired heart health, reduced energy and cognitive decline. Additionally, inflammation, often from unhealthy lifestyle factors, triggers the production of the enzyme CD38, which suppresses NAD+ levels. This further accelerates premature aging and age-related health concerns. Apigenin is proven to help interfere with these processes, supporting overall health and longevity.
- Natural apigenin is the purest form of apigenin and provides longevity and health-supporting benefits.
-
Organic parsley powder promotes the full-spectrum benefits of apigenin, enhancing efficacy due to the naturally containing apigenin co-factors it contains.
- Piperine is added to enhance the absorption of the apigenin. Increased absorption can translate into increased efficacy of the product.
Full-Spectrum Apigenin. Other apigenin products on the market often contain the isolated form of apigenin. This lower-quality version only provides 1-2 health benefits. ProHealth’s Full Spectrum Apigenin contains full-spectrum apigenin to support numerous areas of health and aging. Full spectrum means the entire plant and the full range of flavonoids were used.
Natural Apigenin. The majority of products on the market contain the synthetic version of apigenin. ProHealth’s Full Spectrum Apigenin contains natural apigenin for the highest-quality, most natural version.
Organic Parsley Powder. ProHealth’s Full Spectrum Apigenin contains 700 mg of organic parsley powder, a natural source of apigenin and other co-factors that enhance the biological effects of apigenin.
