TSI Group’s new compound, Hobamine (2-HOBA) has shown to support cellular health through a unique mechanism.

As science continues to advance, looking at health at a cellular level has more prominant. 

“Cellular health matters because it has an important impact on how well our bodies function, repair themselves, produce new body tissue, and much more,” according to Shawn Baier, vice president of business development with TSI Group’s Innovative Products Division. “As we all know, our immune system and how it responds to various stimuli has an effect on our cellular health, both positively and negatively. Cells form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs form systems that make up the body. Cellular health is the microscopic version of overall health—the healthier our cells, the healthier our body will be since our cells will be working optimally and efficiently with one another. “


A Radical Approach to Cellular Health

Oxidative stress is the primary cause of cellular damage. Excessive oxidative stress causes a buildup of a specific class of free radicals that can cause harm to the body.  Unfortunately, it’s merely impossible to eliminate all oxidative stress from our lives because of factors such as environment, poor nutrition, excess alcohol, lack of sleep, stress, and/or simply aging.

Hobamine (2-HOBA), a bio-identical, chemically synthesized version of the naturally occurring compound 2-hydroxybenzylamine (2-HOBA) found in the buckwheat plant can help combat oxidative stress.  What makes Hobamine unique or even radical is that it works by acting specifically against compounds responsible for oxidative damage without blocking the processes needed for healthy cell function. 

“Hobamine (2-HOBA) represents a paradigm shift in the approach to reducing the impact of oxidative stress because it is a selective scavenger of high-impact reactive oxygen species (ROS), specifically isolevuglandins (IsoLGs), but doesn’t interfere with or blunt fundamental physiological processes,” said Baier. “Therefore, 2-HOBA helps to return the healthy balance our cells and bodies need.”

A Paradigm Shift

A recently published article in Nutraceuticals World explores the latest advancements and changes in the field of antioxidants.

As you may know, antioxidants play a crucial role in protecting the body from oxidative stress and damage, which can lead to a variety of health issues. However, recent research suggests that the traditional approach to antioxidants may not be as effective as once thought.

The article delves into these new findings and discusses the latest breakthroughs in antioxidant research, including novel compounds and delivery systems that are changing the game.

The Paradigm Shift

There has been a paradigm shift in the traditional approach to health.  Cellular health is a new foundational approach to aging and wellness. 

“Cellular health matters because it has an important impact on how well our bodies function, repair themselves, produce new body tissue, and much more,” according to Shawn Baier, vice president of business development with TSI Group. “As we all know, our immune system and how it responds to various stimuli has an effect on our cellular health, both positively and negatively. Cells form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs form systems that make up the body. Cellular health is the microscopic version of overall health—the healthier our cells, the healthier our body will be since our cells will be working optimally and efficiently with one another.“

A Radical Approach to Cellular Health

A new ingredient known as Hobamine (2-hydroxybenzylanmine 2-HOBA) is at the forefront of new developments to support cellular health, particularly as we age. 

Hobamine works by acting specifically against compounds responsible for oxidative damage without blocking the processes needed for cell function. 

“Hobamine (2-HOBA) represents a paradigm shift in the approach to reducing the impact of oxidative stress because it is a selective scavenger of high-impact reactive oxygen species (ROS), specifi ally isolevuglandins (IsoLGs), but doesn’t interferewith or blunt fundamental physiological processes,” said Baier. “Therefore, 2-HOBA helps to return the healthy balance our cells and bodies need.”

Hobamine – A Breakthrough Non-Antioxidant

January 9, 2023
No Comments

Hobamine (2-HOBA) has entered the spotlight as a new ingredient to help improve the balance of cellular health according to an article in Nutrition Insight.

Hobamine is a patented ingredient from TSI Group that is a naturally occurring compound of hydroxybenzylamine (2-HOBA).  This ingredient is a breakthrough because it specifically targets the negative impact from oxidative stress without blunting the body’s normal and healthy processes. 


Health at a Granular Level

Cellular health is the foundation of overall health and becomes especially more important as we age. 

“Cellular health matters because it has an important impact on how well the body functions, repairs itself, produces new body tissue and much more,” says principal investigator John A. Rathmacher, Ph.D. 

We are made up of trillions of cells and those cells are the building blocks of the body.  Cell from tissues, tissues form organs, and organs form the systems that make up our bodies.  Everything that happens in our bodies starts on a cellular level.  In other words – the healthier our cells, the healthier our body will be. 


More Than an Antioxidant

Hobamine is notably not an antioxidant because it allows our bodies to continue their normal processes like cell signaling and immune function while minimizing the adverse effects of oxidative stress. 

Whereas, antioxidants avoid the development of oxidative stress all together, but then this blocks our bodies from its normal physiological functions and pathways. 

“Hobamine could easily become the next new vitamin C or vitamin D in terms of consumer acceptance,” comments VP of business development at TSI Group Shawn Baier. “It is a defender of every cell in the body.”
