Chrysin, a natural molecule found in plants, has various health benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, neuroprotective, and anti-apoptotic effects. Researchers have found that chrysin also exhibits anxiolytic and antidepressant-like effects through its interaction with neurotransmitter systems, particularly the GABAergic and serotonergic, and activation of neurotrophic factors. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of chrysin may also contribute to its therapeutic use for anxiety and depression disorders. These pre-clinical findings suggest that chrysin could be a promising novel therapy for these disorders.
Fermented food supplements improved clinical symptoms, reduced inflammation, and increased immune function in COVID-19 patients, according to a study with 188 participants. The findings suggest that fermented tropical fruits may effectively decrease post-COVID symptoms through immune-modulating, redox balancing, and pro-energy mechanisms.
