Chinese herb kidney tea may offer new treatment options for diabetic nephropathy, a leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Further research needed to understand its mechanisms and potential as a therapeutic agent.
Researchers identified new compounds from a herb and created derivatives. The compounds displayed anti-rheumatoid arthritis activity and inhibited inflammatory proteins.
The study analyzed the complete chloroplast genome of (Blume) Miq. 1858, a medicinal plant. It found that the plant forms a monophyletic group within Lamiaceae, aiding in species identification and phylogenetic analysis.
Tested the effectiveness of OA on atopic dermatitis. Care because OA could be a potential treatment for AD.
Scientists studied the traditional herb Orthosiphon aristatus and found that it contains phenols and flavonoids with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This information is important as it suggests potential benefits for treating conditions like nephritis, epilepsy, and cystitis.
A plant extract called Miq can help to reduce non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by improving liver enzymes and reducing glucose, insulin, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
This study looked at how taking dietary supplements affects the health of older adults over time. The researchers wanted to see if taking supplements improved cognitive function, physical fitness, and other measures of health. They found that taking supplements at the start of the study did not have a significant impact on these measures over the course of several years. This suggests that taking supplements may not be very effective for improving health in these areas in older adults.
