The Idea

The number on the bottle was never the number that was tested.

Horse chestnut works through one compound: aescin. The seventeen randomized trials behind it did not dose horse chestnut. They dosed aescin, at 50 mg twice a day. Extract weight is not dose. Aescin content is dose, and it is the one number almost nobody prints.

Aescin tightens the pores in capillary walls, so less fluid escapes into the tissue around them. That is what the trials measured, and it is why a capsule at the tested dose can do what a balm or a tincture never could.
