What are the effects, functions and methods of consumption of Rhodiola rosea?

I believe that many friends will not feel unfamiliar when talking about Rhodiola rosea, because Rhodiola rosea, as a precious Chinese medicinal material, can play a good preventive and therapeutic effect on many diseases of the human body. It can also make our skin look younger, thereby delaying people's aging, so it is deeply loved and recognized by people. So what are the effects, functions and ways of eating Rhodiola? In the following time, please join me in learning about it.

4. Anti-tumor effect

In vitro experiments show that Rhodiola rosea extract can inhibit the growth rate and division ability of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, and has an inhibitory effect on the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. Rhodiola rosea can also inhibit the growth and proliferation of in vitro cultured liver cancer cells and mouse transplanted liver cancer cells, reduce DNA synthesis, increase glycogen content, and prolong the survival of tumor-bearing mice; Rhodiola rosea can inhibit in vitro cultured liver cancer cells in the S phase. Rhodiola rosea has an inhibitory effect on S180 cells, and the efficacy is dose-related. Its anti-tumor effect is relatively selective, and the same dose has no toxic effect on non-tumor cells. Rhodiola rosea also has an inhibitory effect on HeLa cells.

5. Anti-radiation effect

Rhodiola rosea can improve the survival rate of X-ray irradiated mice, prolong their survival time, improve the thymus and spleen indexes, and significantly increase the spleen lymphocyte transformation rate and the percentage of helper T cells in the thymus of mice after irradiation. Rhodiola rosea can reduce the production rate of micronuclei in bone marrow polychromatophilic cells and significantly inhibit the production of LPO in the heart and liver caused by radiation. Salidroside can reduce the production of LPO in irradiated tissues, has the effect of protecting lipids and cell membrane damage, and can be used as a good radiation protection drug. The water extract of Rhodiola rosea root has a good effect in inhibiting induced mutations, can reduce the incidence of micronuclei in bone marrow polychromatin cells and sperm deformity, and counteract the damage to the DNA of mouse somatic cells and germ cells caused by short rod bacteria vaccine.

6. Anti-hypoxia effect

The alcohol extracts of Rhodiola rosea roots and rhizomes can significantly improve the tolerance to hypoxia in various mouse hypoxia models, reduce the oxygen consumption rate, prolong the survival time of animals in a low-oxygen environment, and significantly increase the fasting liver glycogen and blood sugar levels of animals. Rhodiola rosea alcohol extract can significantly reduce the overall oxygen consumption of mice, reduce the content of blood, myocardial and brain lactic acid in rats, and improve the aerobic metabolism process under hypoxic conditions. Rhodiola rosea ethanol extract can effectively prevent the impact of high altitude hypoxic environment on heart and lung function, and inhibit the prolongation of PR interval, QRS period and QT interval of human electrocardiogram caused by altitude.

The above paragraphs have given us a good introduction to the effects, functions and methods of consumption of Rhodiola rosea. I sincerely hope that my friends can read the above content carefully so that they can have a further understanding of Rhodiola rosea and better exert its normal effects in daily life. This will provide better protection for our physical health, so it is worth our better sharing.
