Listen in as Jim Roufs, MS, RD examines a clinical publication measuring the effects Pomella® has on reducing AGEs (advanced glycation end-products) in this interesting webinar.

Jim notes his excitement about the results showing reduced AGE formation at a feasible dose amount, “we’ve read somewhere between 12,000-15,000 clinical research studies, I still think this is the most remarkable finding with a dietary supplement that I have ever seen.”
