PLT Health Solutions to Showcase Innovative Research at Nutrition 2026 Conference

PLT Health Solutions, Inc. has recently announced that its dedicated science team will present three insightful research posters during the prestigious Nutrition 2026 conference, hosted by the American Society for Nutrition (ASN) from July 25 to July 28 in National Harbor, Maryland. This renowned event is expected to attract thousands of attendees, including nutrition researchers, healthcare professionals, and industry leaders from across the globe.

The research presented will focus on critical areas such as mobility, joint health, and the integrity of gut barriers, reflecting PLT’s commitment to delivering meaningful scientific insights that support health and wellness.

Research Highlights: Joint Longevity and Mobility

Dr. Dawna Salter-Farfan, Senior Manager of Clinical Research, and Jennifer L. Murphy, Head of Innovation and Clinical Science, will lead the presentations, which include:

1. Kinexa® Joint Longevity Complex: This poster presents findings from a clinical study titled "A Novel Herbal Supplement Decreases Pain, Improves Mobility, and Modifies MRI-Detected Whole-Organ Knee Structure in Adults with Mild-to-Moderate Osteoarthritis."
- The study, which employed a randomized, placebo-controlled design, evidenced substantial enhancements in joint strength, comfort, physical functionality, and mobility. Notably, advanced MRI evaluations indicated improvements in cartilage composition and knee structural integrity, suggesting the supplement's potential impact on both symptoms and underlying joint architecture.
- Poster Number: P01-23-26, Session: Aging and Chronic Disease (I), Date/Time: 07/25/2026; 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM

2. Dynagenix® Joint+Muscle Formula: This research focuses on a standardized, water-soluble extract from Boswellia serrata, which is detailed in the presentation titled "A Water-Soluble Boswellia serrata Extract Reduces Pain and Stiffness, Increases Knee Range of Motion, and Improves Functional Mobility in Adults with Mild Osteoarthritis."
- The findings reveal that participants experienced significant reductions in pain and stiffness after just five days of supplementation, alongside demonstrated improvements in mobility and functional capabilities throughout the month-long study.
- Poster Number: P01-26-26, Session: Aging and Chronic Disease (I), Date/Time: 07/25/2026; 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM

3. Green Tea Extract Study: The final poster explores a novel extract from green tea rich in galloylated catechin dimers, using Caenorhabditis elegans as the model organism. Titled "A Galloylated Catechin Dimer-Rich Green Tea Extract Engages Stress-Responsive and Epithelial Pathways to Promote Gut Integrity and Longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans," the research demonstrated significant improvements in gut barrier integrity and enhanced lifespan of the model organisms. Key insights were gained regarding the modulation of signaling pathways essential for epithelial maintenance and cellular resilience against stressors.
- Poster Number: P20-23-26, Session: Dietary Bioactive Components (I), Date/Time: 07/25/2026; 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM
