It is cycloastragenol. It is not unique, quite a few companies sell it and for way less usually.Counteragingwise tested a capsule of TA-65 and it turned out to be exclusively cycloastragenol. See point 2 on their science page.Mind you: according to their analysis it was also 5mg, not 8mg like TA-65 says.I find TA-65's communication not transparent, vague, subjective and sometimes downright dishonest. They also lie about their competitors products.I suggest you buy elsewhere. Counteragingwise has 3 different types with improved absorption. I don't know which one and which dosage is most effective and best value for the price. You get a leaflet with their research results that shows that after one year of taking hypersorption cycloastragenol, telomeres lengthened and telomere age went down by 1-10 years (dosage is unclear).Be aware that more isn't necessarily more effective. There is a research called 'A Natural Product Telomerase Activator Lengthens Telomeres in Humans' that showed that 1 capsule of TA-65 (8mg, which is actually 5mg because TA-65 lies) lengthened telomeres while 4 capsules (32mg, which is actually 20mg) did not. Telomeres actually got shorter for this group. Unfortunately they didn't test 2 and 3 capsules. Mind you: this research is on TA-65's website, yet they still claim that more capsules are more effective and needed if you are older!PS: I am not affiliated with Counteragingwise at all and there are other companies that sell cycloastragenol that will be fine.
