Overall Respiratory Support. Improved Immune Function.
Better Quality of Life.

AlvioLife has been the subject of two human clinical trials measuring respiratory function.

In an earlier double-blind study involving subjects with bronchial asthma[1], thirty-six subjects took AlvioLife (200 mg/d) or a matching placebo for 56 days. AlvioLife conferred significant improvements in the clinical parameters; the emotional function (p = .0305) and asthma symptoms scores (p = .0002) were improved even at 14 days, compared with the placebo. Further, 56 days of supplementation of AlvioLife resulted in a significant increase in serum IFN‐γ (p = .0014) and a reduction in IL‐4 (p = .0497), compared with placebo.

In a second double-blind trial currently in pre-publication, healthy subjects with self-reported sensitivity to pollution took either 200 mg/d of AlvioLife or a matching placebo for six weeks. AlvioLife was found to improve lung function (FEV1) by up to 16%; lung capacity (FVC) by up to 30%; aerobic exercise capacity by up to 7% (6-minute Walk test); to reduce upper respiratory tract symptoms (WURSS-21) by up to ~40%; improved perceived immune status (ISQ) in as early as three weeks; improved psychological well-being (PGWBI) by up to 18%; and improved the percentage of CD4+ T Helper Cells. In both studies, AlvioLife was found to be safe and well-tolerated.

ORIGIN STORY

A Sustainable and Socially Responsible Ingredient

Bengal quince fruit (Aegle marmelos) is a species of tree native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. The tree is considered to be sacred by Hindus and is often found near temples and home gardens.

Tree Populations Safety and Health

PLT’s Boswellia serrata supply chain starts with collectors and aggregators who have worked with us for decades. These collectors are trained in sustainable gum tapping to maximize yield while maintaining the safety and health of the Boswellia serrata tree populations.

Botanical Liaisons, LLC

PLT has started a third-party sustainability audit program on Boswellia serrata trees in India by renowned botanical research consultancy Botanical Liaisons, LLC. The third-party audit program is based on a broad range of environmental, cultural and economic parameters.

Strong Practices

At PLT, we understand that proper stewardship of natural resources and social responsibility toward the communities that support our work is both the right thing to do and good business.

Understanding the Difference Makes the Difference

During the fourth quarter of 2021, PLT Health Solutions announced the commencement of a third-party sustainability audit program on Boswellia serrata trees, which serve as the raw material source for some of our most important ingredients. The audit of this India resource was conducted by renowned botanical research consultancy Botanical Liaisons, LLC, and was undertaken to help the nutraceutical industry and non-governmental agencies around the world understand what we and our ingredient innovation partner Laila Nutraceuticals have known for many years: proper stewardship of natural resources and social responsibility toward the communities that support our work are both the right thing to do and good business.

The audit program was a step in PLT’s campaign to document the sustainability of the tree resource. PLT’s Chairman, Paul Flowerman, made field trips to the key production areas in 2018 and 2019 to observe and document the variety of tree populations, methods of natural and forced propagation and the status of the tribal groups involved in the care of the trees and resin production.

A third audit program was based on a broad range of environmental, cultural and economic parameters. In March 2022 Botanical Liaisons reported to PLT its preliminary conclusions, which included this statement: “It is clear from the information collected from the stakeholders that [sustainability] is supported. Boswellia serrata has several sustainability advantages that prevent over-harvesting of PLT-sourced Boswellia compared to other sources and species of Boswellia.” The report recommended a series of next steps to further evaluate and promote sustainability.

Subsequently, four important additional developments have added considerable strength to the Boswellia serrata sustainability story:

Authoritative tree survey data from Madhya Pradesh quantified the robustness and sufficiency of the tree resource to provide present and future resin requirements.
CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) determined during its November 2022 meeting (COP 19 in Panama City) that no Boswellia species would get added to the CITES Appendix lists. The health of Boswellia serrata, the only species of commercial importance for PLT, was documented, including information about the replenishment of the resource.
AHPA (American Herbal Products Association) convened an expert panel, which has drafted a brochure entitled, “Good Stewardship Harvesting of Boswellia (Boswellia Serrata).” This is a definitive presentation of current best practices.
An important study modeling the impact of significant climate change by 2050 on Boswellia serrata resources predicted that almost all of Madhya Pradesh, the source of 90+% of commercial resin, will remain conducive for a healthy tree population.

These initiatives represent the type of work we do with our PLT360™ initiative. Introduced in 2015, our PLT360 initiative is a business-wide commitment by PLT Health Solutions to develop ingredients that our customers can be confident and proud to supply to their own customers – knowing that these ingredients are safe, of high quality, efficacious and harvested and manufactured sustainably. PLT360 examines every business decision and business process we undertake to be transparent with our operations, build trust with the health & well-being community and, together with them, support healthier, happier lives for the consumers we serve.
