What are the effects of white Polygonum multiflorum

The effects of white Polygonum multiflorum are different from those of ordinary Polygonum multiflorum. White Polygonum multiflorum has more effects and is more helpful to us. It is very suitable for some elderly friends to use more white Polygonum multiflorum. Due to their age, the physical fitness of the elderly is relatively poor. Eating more white Polygonum multiflorum can achieve the effect of strengthening the body. Let me introduce the effects of white Polygonum multiflorum to you in detail.

(1) Promote hematopoietic function

Subcutaneous injection of 0.2 g of Shouwu liquid twice a day for 3 consecutive days in mice can significantly increase the yield of granulocyte progenitor cells compared with the saline control group. Intraperitoneal injection of 50 mg/kg of Polygonum multiflorum extract into mice for 3 consecutive days can significantly increase the number of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells, significantly improve the production rate of mouse granulocyte-monocyte progenitor cells, and significantly increase the value of bone marrow erythroid progenitor cells.

(2) Enhance immune function

Polygonum multiflorum has a significant antagonistic effect on the inhibitory changes in the spleen and thymus of aged mice caused by prednisolone and cyclophosphamide, and significantly increases the phagocytic rate and phagocytic index of splenic macrophages. Feeding Polygonum multiflorum ethanol extract can significantly improve the damage and repair ability of DNA in peripheral lymphocytes of elderly rats. Gavage of 6 g/kg of processed Polygonum multiflorum to mice for 7 consecutive days can significantly improve the phagocytic ability of peritoneal macrophages and have a significant antagonistic effect on the decrease in phagocytic index caused by prednisolone.

(3) Lowering blood lipids and preventing atherosclerosis

Giving 4g/kg Polygonum multiflorum to rats with hyperlipidemia daily for 10 consecutive days can significantly reduce the levels of serum total cholesterol (TC) and serum triglyceride (TG) in rats. For quails with hyperlipidemia, continuous gavage of Polygonum multiflorum for 4 weeks can significantly reduce serum TC content and increase the HDL/TC ratio. Other experiments have shown that oral administration of Polygonum multiflorum for 7 days in rabbits with hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis models can not only reduce TC content but also alleviate the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Feeding mice with 32g/kg of Polygonum multiflorum water extract for one month can significantly increase HDL-C levels. When Polygonum multiflorum was added to feed and fed to rats for 90 days, HDL-C was significantly increased, while TG and TC showed no significant changes, and it had a significant inhibitory effect on β-lipoprotein. When the alcohol extract of Polygonum multiflorum was administered intragastrically to quails with rapid atherosclerosis for 6 consecutive weeks, the plasma HDL-C/TC ratio increased significantly, and the effect was more significant in the high-dose group. All drug-administered groups had the effect of delaying atherosclerosis. The active ingredients of Polygonum multiflorum that have lipid-lowering and anti-cholesterol effects include anthraquinones, diphenylene compounds and lecithin.

The effects of white Polygonum multiflorum are far more than those listed above. The biggest effect of white Polygonum multiflorum is that it can help us treat the problem of gray hair and effectively help us improve the imbalance of qi and blood in the whole body. It has many benefits to us. Many elderly friends have also strengthened their physical fitness by using white Polygonum multiflorum.
