PLT Health Solutions to present clinical study results for botanical ingredient at Sleep 2025

PLT Health Solutions announced¹ it will present results from a clinical study on its ingredient Serezin™ Restorative Sleep + Pain Relief at Sleep 2025, an annual event from the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, LLC (APSS), a combined effort of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) and Sleep Research Society (SRS). The event will be taking place June 7-11, 2025, in Seattle, Washington.

On June 11 at 10:00am, study author and PLT’s senior clinical research manager Dawna Salter-Farfan, PhD, RD, will present a poster session explaining the results and data, specifically in regard to the female study participants.

“We are excited to present our high-impact research findings at SLEEP 2025,” Dr. Salter-Farfan stated in the June 4 press release¹. “We will be showing data demonstrating Serezin improves sleep quality and quantity, but with a special emphasis on the improvements shown within the female-only cohort of our study. While many of us look to tracking devices to understand our sleep, these data often do not align with our experience. Waking up feeling rested, restored, and refreshed is the defining characteristic of a great night’s sleep. By providing relief for nighttime aches and pain, Serezin unlocks the benefits of restorative sleep so that men and women can have better days, every day.”

According to the recently published abstract,² “An Herbal Supplement Improves Restorative Sleep and Sleep Quality, Elevates Mood, and Increases Total Sleep Time,” the double-blind, placebo-controlled study involved 60 participants, both men and women, ages 40-70, who reported sleep issues due to musculoskeletal pain. The participants were given either 300 mg of Serezin or a placebo daily for 28 days. Measurements were taken at 1, 2, and 4 weeks, and a separate analysis of the women-only cohort was also conducted.

Results included improved restorative sleep and pain in the study group on days 7, 14, and 28 compared to placebo; overall mood score improved on days 14 and 28 compared to placebo; and greater reductions in daytime and nighttime discomfort were seen on day 28 compared to placebo.^1,2

Serezin is a combination of the botanicals used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine: Boswellia serrata (Indian Frankincense) and Zingiber Officinale (Ginger).^2,3

“Cognitive health is an intense area of interest and innovation at PLT today, with a broad portfolio that addresses cognitive performance, mental energy, stress and mood and sleep and relaxation,” stated Steve Fink, vice president, marketing for PLT. “We have active clinical programs supporting all of these consumer needs. Serezin is an exciting ingredient in the sleep space because it features a different approach to promoting restorative sleep than many of the ingredients on the market today. We feel that this study can help consumer products companies develop compelling, trustworthy messaging for a new generation of sleep support products.”
