Study, Trial or Testing Result Summary
Members Only62 human studies · 37 improved
1 of these 62 human studies gave the ingredient by drip, not by mouth.
Every ingredient in this product is hidden in a blend, so no amount can be compared with the doses studied. The best evidence for teeth concerns aloe vera, but it was used in the mouth as a rinse, gel or toothpaste, not swallowed in a capsule. Aloe vera mouthwash lowered gum bleeding and plaque compared with placebo in 345 healthy people over 30 days [1]. It slowed plaque regrowth over 4 days in 300 people [2] and lowered plaque, gum inflammation and cavity-causing bacteria in 152 children [3]. Reviews found aloe products improved gum health [4] and that aloe gel added to deep gum cleaning helped gum pockets, though evidence was limited [5]. The Cape aloe findings come from aloe vera studies, a close relative, not Cape aloe itself. Ginger swallowed at 2 grams twice daily for eight weeks lowered gum inflammation and pocket depth in people with diabetes and gum disease [6], and ginger mouthwash reduced plaque and gum inflammation [7]. Fennel [8], white oak [9] and red reishi [10] have only thin or lab evidence. Cascara sagrada, barberry, senna, turkey rhubarb, white pond lily and prickly ash have no human studies for teeth. Animal and cell studies are never counted.

Biohacker Summary
Members Only0 of 10 recommend it
Ginger is the main ingredient here, and most of the panel speaks well of it: nine of the ten mentioned it, and most either use it or recommend it. They take it mainly for calming the stomach and easing nausea, for lowering inflammation, and for steadier blood sugar, with a few also citing metabolism, weight and digestion. Forms vary widely, including capsules, tea, powder, fresh juice, and cooking it into soups, broth and veggie meals, and it is often paired with turmeric, with one panelist also adding black pepper in tea. On dose, one panelist cites 1 to 3 grams for nausea and another includes 3 grams in a daily meal, while another adds three capsules to a daily stack. One panelist warns that ginger can act like meds or a med and advises stopping it before surgery, and one says its effects on weight and cell cleanup are modest compared with exercise. Reishi, a smaller ingredient in this product, is recommended by a few for immune and longevity support, though one panelist stopped using it after finding something they preferred.
