Research & products

Botanical medicine research pipeline

GNT combines natural product discovery, immunology, advanced delivery systems, and translational development to address allergic and inflammatory diseases.

01

Food allergy

GNT investigates interventions intended to address persistent pathological IgE and reduce allergic symptoms.

  • IgE-inhibiting natural compounds
  • Nanomedicine for improved compound delivery
  • Fermented foods and probiotic dietary supplements
02

Allergic asthma

The pipeline includes multicomponent botanical approaches and purified natural compounds for allergic and treatment-resistant asthma.

  • ASHMI Phase I and IIa clinical research
  • Eosinophilic and corticosteroid-resistant models
  • Airway-smooth-muscle and eotaxin research
03

Eczema

GNT's proprietary Shi Zhen formulations are being developed for inflammatory skin disease and associated immune dysregulation.

  • Skin-lesion outcomes
  • Peripheral eosinophils
  • Serum IgE
04

Metabolic health

The research portfolio also includes a traditional Chinese medicine-based weight-management formulation, W-LHGT.

  • Botanical formulation
  • Chronic-disease context
  • Translational product development
