De enige studie die ik kon vinden over dit Extract is een rattenstudie.
The present study examined the efficacy of Chlorophytum borivilianum root (powder) in modulating the hyperlipaemic/hypercholesteraemic conditions in male albino rats. 2. Administration of C. borivilianum (0.75 and 1.5 g root powder/rat per day for 4 weeks) to hypercholesteraemic rats significantly increased high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels and decreased plasma and hepatic lipid profiles. 3. In addition, there were significant increases in faecal cholesterol, neutral sterol and bile acid excretion with elevated hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity and bile acid production. 4. Furthermore, the hypercholesteraemic rats treated with both doses of C. borivilianum also exhibited increases in superoxide dismutase and ascorbic acid levels. 5. Normocholesteraemic animals treated with both doses of C. borivilianum root powder did not show any significant variation in either lipid or anti-oxidant profiles, except for an increase in the hepatic ascorbic acid concentration compared with their untreated counterparts. 6. The hypolipaemic/hypocholesteraemic effect of C. borivilianum root powder appears to be mediated by an increase in cholesterol turnover via increased faecal cholesterol excretion and, second, through an endogenous cholesterol conversion into bile acid. 7. Administration of C. borivilianum root powder also increased the activities of anti-oxidant enzymes and vitamin C levels, which may have enhanced the anti-oxidant capacity of the liver.
En het zegt nou niks schokkends over spieropbouwende effecten, hoogstens wat over het "anti-oxidant capacity of the liver"
Volgende super ingredient:
Mucuna Pruriens extract
Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC. Syn. M. prurita Hook. (Papilionaceae) is used in male impotency, as aphrodisiac, in coïtusual debility, and as nervine tonic. It also possesses anti-parkinson property, possibly due to the presence of L-DOPA. In the present study, attempts were made to develop the suitable method(s) for extraction of L-DOPA/other active components from the seeds using different solvents. The various extracts were also screened for their neuroprotective and antioxidant activities. In addition, TLC and HPLC fingerprinting of the extracts for amino acid components were also developed for preliminary and sophisticated analysis. The L-DOPA could be obtained in good yield on extraction with EtOH-H2O mixture (1:1) using ascorbic acid as protector. Interestingly, n-propanol extract, which contained negligible amount of L-DOPA, had shown significant neuroprotective activity, suggesting that some components, other than L-DOPA, might also be responsible for anti-Parkinson property of seeds. The extract (MW-0100) containing mainly amino acids and water-ethanol extract (1:1) (MWEL-1299) showed promising antioxidant activity (EC50 = 2.5 microg) against DPPH radicals. MWEL-1299 also exhibited encouraging results against 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+) toxicity. The TLC fingerprinting may be used to authenticate the plant material in herbal industry.
Zoals uit dit onderzoek blijkt berust de werking van Mucuna Pruriens extract dus op de werking van L-dopa. L-dopa zorgt ervoor dat het lichaam zelf meer dopamine kan aanmaken (joepie!) Dopamine of 2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyfenyl) propaanzuur is een verbinding die fungeert als neurotransmitter (en soms als hormoon) op verschillende plaatsen in het lichaam. Dopamine ontstaat door decarboxylatie uit Dopa, dat in levende organismen wordt gevormd door oxidatie van het aminozuur tyrosine. Het komt in het menselijk en dierlijk organisme ook voor als een precursor van de hormonen adrenaline en noradrenaline, dat daaruit door hydroxylering kan ontstaan. Het speelt een grote rol bij het ervaren van genot, blijdschap en welzijn. Kan hieruit dus geen anabolen eigenschappen opmerken.
Als ik het zo bekijk word je er blij van en heb je verhoogde antioxidanten werking..
Nou nou, schokkend hoor!
