Explanation & Evidence
Activity
Fang and others reported the anticancer effect of trans-
cinnamaldehyde from Cinnamon cortex, finding that trans-
cinnamaldehyde showed potential effects in restraining tumor cell
growth and in enhancing tumor cell apoptosis.
Both Eucommia leaf extract (ELE) and Eucommia green leaf powder
(EGLP) markedly suppressed body weight and white adipose tissue
ANTI- (WAT) in female ICR mice fed high-fat diets. The anti-obesity effect of
OBESITY Eucommia green leaf extract (EGLE) has been linked to various
compounds such as geniposidic acid, asperuloside, and chlorogenic acid
which was isolated from the extract.
Activity
Curcumin has been shown to improve systemic markers of oxidative
stress. There is evidence that it can increase serum activities of
antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase. Curcumin is a lipophilic
compound, which makes it an efficient scavenger of peroxyl radicals,
therefore, like vitamin E, curcumin is also considered as a chain-breaking
ANTI- antioxidant.
OXIDANT Antioxidant compounds from Eucommia plant reduced the level of free
radicals and improved the disease condition caused by oxidative stress.
Phenolics and flavonoids (rutin, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, and caffeic
acid) of medicinal herbs contributed significantly to oxidative activities in
EU.
