Overview

MU2 is a standardized botanical extract derived from the lacquer tree (*Rhus verniciflua* Stokes), developed by Lifetree Biotech. The extract is specifically processed to be urushiol-free, removing the allergenic compounds typically found in the plant, and is standardized to the flavonoid fustin. MU2 has been certified by the South Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) as a health functional food ingredient for the maintenance of liver health. Its therapeutic profile is characterized by antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, which contribute to its hepatoprotective effects by mitigating oxidative stress and supporting liver function.
