Aster yomena Extract
A functional ingredient that helps improve nasal conditions
caused by immune hypersensitivity
Aster yomena extract is certified as a functional ingredient that helps improve nasal conditions caused by immune hypersensitivity.
It contains flavonoids, saponins, and terpenes, traditionally known for anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. Flavonoids suppress the secretion of inflammatory cytokines that play a key role in immune hypersensitivity, thereby reducing immune overreaction.
