Scientific References
Selected studies and evidence behind our product areas, ingredients and testing concepts.
We believe in being transparent about the science behind our products.
On many of our product and ingredient pages you will find selected references and evidence summaries. These are chosen to help you understand the thinking behind a product — not to overwhelm you with research.
This page explains how we work with scientific references in the shop.
How we use references in the shop
We include references where they add real value and clarity. The goal is to help you understand:
- Why a specific ingredient is included in a product
- What the active compounds are known to support
- How a product or testing concept connects to biological mechanisms
- The level of evidence behind a claim (emerging, supportive, or well-established)
We keep the references focused and relevant to the shopping experience.
What you will find on product and ingredient pages
On individual pages you may see:
- Short summaries of key studies related to an ingredient
- References to well-known research on specific compounds (such as anthocyanins in bilberry or polyphenols in lingonberry)
- Links to relevant areas in our broader testing panels
- Clear statements about the strength of the evidence
We only include references that are meaningful for understanding the product. We avoid long reference lists that belong in a research setting.
For deeper research
If you want to explore the science in more depth, we recommend visiting our specialised platforms:
High Coast Longevity Intelligence Advanced longevity science, biological models and curated research insights.
High Coast Women’s Health Intelligence Specialised science across fertility, pregnancy, menopause and women’s health.
High Coast Health Intelligence Institute Deeper diagnostics, research and translational science.
These platforms contain our full scientific library, evidence insights and in-depth articles.
Our principle
We want the shop to feel clear and trustworthy. That means we show enough science to support your choices — without turning the shopping experience into a research database.
When you want to go deeper, we make it easy to move into the High Coast Health Intelligence ecosystem.
