Researchers conducted a study on overweight adults taking Crataegus Extract Mixture (CEM). Results showed CEM decreased body fat, weight, and improved lipid profiles with no adverse events. CEM may be an effective and safe treatment for obesity and dyslipidemia.
Researchers developed a model of ARDS and PF caused by SARS-CoV-2 in cells. HIF-1α knockdown and apigetrin showed promise in reducing inflammation and fibrosis, suggesting potential for SARS-CoV-2 treatment.
Study showed CP and WE combo improved metabolic health, reduced obesity from HFD, improved glucose/insulin/lipid levels. Altered gut microbiota, promising obesity combat approach.
Scientists analyzed the metabolites in hawthorn before and after insect infestation. They identified 57 differential biomarkers that can detect infestation and ensure food safety. This study provides insights for future research on infestation mechanisms and safe storage monitoring.
Hyperoside, found in Hypericum perforatum and Crataegus pinnatifida, has potential to treat obesity and metabolic diseases, but more research is needed.
