The paper published this time is by a group led by Professor Dr. Hisanori Kato of the The University of Tokyo The University of Tokyo industry-academia research team Eggshell Membrane.
Ingestion of finely ground eggshell membrane, a thin Eggshell Membrane made from eggs, improved the liver function in a rat model of carbon tetrachloride-induced liver damage.
The results showed that symptoms of liver damage improved and inflammation and liver fibrosis were suppressed.
Thing.

This highly groundbreaking achievement has drawn further attention to the future potential of Eggshell Membrane.
