Pharmacological Effects of Emblica

1. Emblica has antibacterial effect

The dried fruit of Amla amla is extracted with 80% methanol first, and then extracted with ether. After acidification, good antibacterial active ingredients can be obtained, which have inhibitory effects on Staphylococcus, Salmonella typhi, Bacillus paratyphoid, Escherichia coli and Shigella. Another study has shown that the fruit extract of Emblica has a bactericidal effect on Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella typhimurium, Vibrio cholerae, Escherichia coli, yeast, Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton rubrum.

2. Emblica has anti-atherosclerosis effect

Emblica can regulate lipid metabolism, protect vascular endothelium, and inhibit the formation of AS. It has been reported in the literature that the protective effect of Emblica on blood vessels is related to the polyphenolic antioxidants it contains. It can reduce the production of lipid peroxides and OX-LDL, and inhibit the expression of endothelin, thereby reducing endothelial damage and foam cell formation, reducing smooth muscle cell proliferation, and delaying the occurrence and development of AS.

3. Emblica has lipid-lowering effect

Modern research has shown that Emblica can effectively reduce blood total cholesterol (TC) and body mass gain index in lipid metabolism disorder model rats and normal rats, and increase the ratio of high-density lipoprotein to cholesterol (HDL/TC) in blood. effective relationship.

4. Emblica has antioxidant and anti-aging effects

The fruit of Amla amla is rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, SOD, tannin and so on. Antioxidants such as SOD can scavenge superoxide free radicals, reduce their damage to the body, and delay the aging process.

5. Emblica has anti-cancer effects. Studies have found that in vivo and in vitro, animal and human administration of Amla fruit juice can effectively block the synthesis of N-nitroso compounds. The researchers also conducted research on people in areas with high incidence of gastric cancer, and found that Embergia fruit juice and vitamin C had a significant blocking effect on the enhanced nitrosation process in the body of people in high incidence areas of gastric cancer (including gastric cancer patients). Vitamin C is more obvious. Many scholars believe that Embergia is currently one of the best natural foods to block nitrosation.

6. Emblica has anti-inflammatory properties

The research on the extract of Cotyledon radix leaves showed that some components in the leaves have a strong inhibitory effect on human neutral polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and can inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, showing a strong anti-inflammatory effect. inflammation.

7. Emblica has antipyretic and analgesic effects

In animal experiments, it was also observed that the extracts of ethanol and water of Emblica can significantly reduce the hyperthermia induced by S. cerevisiae in mice, and have obvious analgesic effects on the writhing reaction of mice caused by acetic acid, and its effect is related to the biological Alkali, tannins, phenolic compounds, carbohydrates and amino acids.

8. Embergia has a liver-protecting effect

Studies have shown that Emblica can better protect liver cells and prevent cell membrane damage, thereby preventing ALT, AST and ALP from escaping extracellular; The content of liver glycogen can significantly reduce the liver coefficient; significantly reduce the degeneration, necrosis and inflammatory response of liver cells.

9. Emblica has hypoglycemic effect

The ethyl acetate extract of Amaryllis emblica can better reduce the hyperglycemia caused by streptozotocin, and can inhibit the weight loss of mice and improve the spleen index. compound.

10. Emblica has the effect of enhancing immunity

Gavage of Amaryllis extract in mice can significantly enhance the immune function of mice, increase the content of serum hemolysin in mice, significantly enhance the phagocytic function of macrophages in mice, improve delayed-type allergy, promote T lymphocyte proliferation, and increase NK cell activity .

11. Emblica has antiviral effects

The median inhibitory concentrations of the ethyl acetate extract, methanol extract and water extract of Emmanuel officinalis for herpes simplex virus type 1 were 25.28, 66.17, 100.94 pg/mL, respectively, and the median inhibitory concentration for herpes simplex virus type 2 was 31.70, respectively , 180.3, 112.1 pg/mL. The extract of Amla amla has in vitro anti-type 1 and anti-herpes simplex virus type 2 effects.

12. Emblica has other functions

Alcohol extracts can increase glycogen levels in necrotic myocardium. Amaryllis extract also has anti-mutagenic, teratogenic and antihypertensive effects.
