First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a daily supplement mix called NOVOS Core can improve blood vessel function in healthy adults over 40. Sixty-one participants took either the supplement or a placebo for up to 6 months. Researchers measured changes in blood vessel dilation, blood pressure, and other markers of aging. The goal was to see if the supplement could help maintain cardiovascular health and slow age-related decline.
