EVALUATION OF THE ACUTE TOXICITY PROPERTIES OF THE “ASTOL” FOOD SUPPLEMENT

Abstract

This article discusses the research conducted to assess the acute toxicity properties of the “ASTOL” food supplement, which is composed of medicinal plant components. According to the research results, no fatalities were observed during the trials conducted at a dose of 2000 mg/kg, indicating its safety. Based on OECD standards, the“ASTOL” food supplement is classified as a non-toxic substance and belongs to class V (LD50 > 2000 mg/kg). This confirms its safety and lack of negative effects on the body. The results obtained show that the “ASTOL” food supplement can be recommended as a new, safe, and effective supplement for the treatment of gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases.
