Wolfberry Extract (Goji Berry Extract)
Wolfberry (Lycium chinense Miller), also known as Ningxia wolfberry, Chinese wolfberry, etc. Lycium barbarum, a perennial woody plant in the Solanaceae family, has slender and weak branches that are curved or drooping in a bow shape, and is light gray in color; The leaves are oval in shape; Flowers grow on long branches alone or in pairs in leaf axils; The fruit is a red oval berry; The flowering period is from June to July; The fruiting period is from August to October. Li Shizhen said, "Goji berry is the combined name of two trees, such as the thorn of the Chinese wolfberry and the stem of the Chinese wolfberry. Therefore, it is also called goji berry.
The polysaccharides and antioxidants rich in wolfberry have significant antioxidant and anti-aging effects, which can help eliminate free radicals in the body, slow down cell aging, and protect cells from damage. Immune regulation and anti-tumor research: Polysaccharides in wolfberry can enhance immune function, improve body resistance, and have certain anti-tumor effects. Research has shown that wolfberry polysaccharides can promote the activity of immune cells and enhance the immune system's ability to recognize and clear tumor cells. Research on blood glucose regulation and lipid-lowering effect: The active ingredients in wolfberry can regulate blood glucose and blood lipid levels, which has a certain auxiliary therapeutic effect on chronic metabolic diseases such as diabetes and hyperlipidemia. Research on neuroprotection and cognitive improvement: The active ingredients in wolfberry have a protective effect on the nervous system, which can improve cognitive function and delay the aging of the nervous system.
Specification: Polysaccharides 10%-50% UV
The Main Health Function
1. Antioxidant effect
Wolfberry extract is rich in various antioxidant substances, such as polysaccharides, flavonoids, and vitamin C. It can eliminate free radicals and enhance antioxidant capacity, effectively combat oxidative stress, prevent aging, enhance immunity, and protect cells from damage.
2. Enhance immunity
Wolfberry extract has immunomodulatory effects and can enhance the body's immune function. It can promote the activity and proliferation of immune cells, regulate the interactions between immune cells, increase the antibody production ability of lymphocytes and macrophages, and enhance the body's ability to resist infections and external invasion.
3. Protecting eyesight
Wolfberry extract has a significant effect on protecting vision. Rich in beta carotene and vitamin C, it helps prevent eye tissue aging and light damage, slow down the progression of macular degeneration and cataracts, improve vision, and has a protective effect on retinal health.
4. Regulating blood sugar levels
Wolfberry polysaccharides can promote insulin secretion, enhance the ability of pancreatic islet cells to uptake and utilize glucose, and lower blood sugar levels. In addition, Wolfberry extract can also improve insulin sensitivity and reduce insulin resistance, which is of certain significance for the prevention and auxiliary treatment of diabetes.
5. Improving male reproductive function
Wolfberry extract can promote the secretion of testosterone, increase sperm count and vitality, improve semen quality, and enhance sexual desire and ability. In addition, goji berry extract can help improve erectile function, increase the prevention and treatment effects of impotence and premature ejaculation.
6. Prevention and treatment of neurological diseases
Wolfberry extract can protect neuronal cells from the neurotoxic effects of A β - amyloid protein, reduce homocysteine induced neuronal cell death, and exert anti-aging, neuroprotective, and anti Alzheimer's disease effects.
7. Antidepressant
Depression is a mental illness characterized by significant and persistent emotional depression, delayed thinking, and psychomotor inhibition, accompanied by insomnia, anxiety, and even suicidal tendencies. Wolfberry extract can significantly improve the behavior of depressed rats, regulate the function of the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis in depressed rats, significantly reduce the cortisol content in the serum of depressed rats, and decrease the expression level of glutamate receptors in the hippocampus, thereby protecting hippocampal neurons.
8. Liver protection
Wolfberry extract stimulates endogenous factors in the human body to increase antioxidant activity, enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes, reduce the occurrence of lipid peroxidation, protect liver cell membranes, and thus enhance the body's energy reserves, which is beneficial for resisting damage to the liver from foreign substances.
9. Bone and Joint Protection
Wolfberry extract can effectively regulate cytokines in osteoporotic rats, alleviate bone breakdown, and achieve the goal of treating osteoporosis. LBP can inhibit the high expression of anti human CD151 (monoclonal antibody) and MMP-3 in osteoarthritis, thereby slowing down the occurrence of osteoarthritis.
10. Delaying aging
Wolfberry extract can significantly increase the levels of SOD, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, increase HYP content, reduce MDA, and play a role in delaying aging by clearing free radicals.
