Product Description
Product Introduction of Herbal Extract Powder
Fenugreek extract is a product extracted from the mature seeds of Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.), a leguminous plant, containing mainly chemical components such as saponins, flavonoids and alkaloids, which are effective in warming the kidneys, dispelling cold and relieving pain, and are used for symptoms such as kidney deficiency and coldness, cold pain in the small abdomen, small intestine hernia and cold damp feet. Fenugreek extract can be used as an economical and efficient new resource of natural antioxidants, which is widely used in the pharmaceutical, food and health care industries and has far-reaching application prospects.
Chemical Composition
Fenugreek extract contains Gentianine, Carpaine, Choline hydroxide, Trigonelline, Diosgenin meta-glucoside,Vitexin,Isovitexin,Homoorientin,Mucorin-7-glucoside,Cucurbitacoside. It also contains saponins, fatty oils, proteins, sugars and vitamin B1.
Product Function of Herbal Extract Powder
1.Hypotensive effect
4-Hydroxyisoleucine was isolated from fenugreek, which has a therapeutic effect on type 2 diabetes. The tonic yang, hypoglycaemic and hypolipidaemic effects of fenugreek may be related to the presence of the above amino acids.
2.Renal protective effect
Fenugreek extract can reduce the serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine in rats with renal failure. Clinical treatment of chronic renal failure with fenugreek decoction is effective.
3.Hypoglycemic effect
Fenugreek alkaloids have hypoglycaemic activity in normal and chemically induced diabetic animals; the saponins in the defatted extract of fenugreek seeds have hypoglycaemic effects; galactomannan contained in fenugreek extract has significant hypoglycaemic, lipid-regulating and weight-loss effects.
4.Anti-ulcer effect
The aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds and the gel fraction isolated from the seeds have significant anti-ulcer activity. This effect is not only due to its inhibition of gastric acid secretion, but also to its effect on gastric mucosal glycoproteins. The aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds prevented alcohol-induced lipid peroxidation by increasing the antioxidant capacity of the gastric mucosa, thereby reducing mucosal damage.
5.Protective effects on acute and chronic chemical liver injury
Fenugreek extract can effectively inhibit the increase of serum ALT and AST in mice with acute liver injury, showing a good dose-effect relationship. The aqueous extract of fenugreek had a protective effect on the liver of rats with chronic liver injury caused by carbon tetrachloride. The mechanism of its protection against acute and chronic chemical liver injury in mice and rats may be lipid peroxidation and increase in GSH-Px enzyme activity.
6.Hypolipidemic effect
The methanolic extract of the defatted fraction of fenugreek seeds significantly reduced serum cholesterol levels in normal dogs. The total extract also had a lowering effect on total serum cholesterol in diabetic hyperlipidemic dogs. The fenugreek alkaloids contained in fenugreek seeds reduced the plasma levels of total and free cholesterol in mice.
7.Protective effect on cerebral ischemia
Total fenugreek saponin significantly prolonged the mean survival and cranial break panting time of mice with acute incomplete cerebral ischemia, suggesting that the drug has a protective effect on cerebral ischemic injury. It can prolong the clotting time in mice, inhibit the aggregation rate of rabbit platelets, reduce blood viscosity, and improve blood flow and microcirculation.
8.Kidney tonic and aphrodisiac
The material basis for the aphrodisiac effect of fenugreek is the high content of zinc and manganese in the seeds. According to research, the content of zinc and manganese in Chinese herbal medicines for kidney tonic is high. If there is a lack of zinc and manganese in the body, the endocrine function will be low and the gland will be atrophied, so that the endocrine hormones will be lowered and the growth will be slowed, the gonads will be degenerated and the sexual function will be disrupted.
9.Improves learning and memory disorders
Fenugreek contains active ingredients that promote protein synthesis, which has the effect of improving learning and memory disorders. Lecithin, one of the active ingredients in fenugreek seeds, improves neurological dysfunction and disorders, restores brain function, enhances memory and is anti-ageing.
10.Antioxidant effect
It was found that the addition of fenugreek to the diet of tetraoxypyrimidine-induced diabetic rats reduced lipid peroxidation, significantly increased blood glutathione and β-cucurbitacin levels, and decreased vitamin E content.
11.Anti-inflammatory, weight loss
The steroidal saponins contained in fenugreek seeds have diuretic and anti-inflammatory activities. Long-term consumption of fenugreek gum (mixed with various foods) has been shown to have good weight loss properties in obesity.
12.Other
The total saponin of Fenugreek may contain a variety of saponins made up of different saponin elements combined with different sugars, with Diosgenin and Ymaogenin containing 0.6%-1%, compared to 0.15%-0.32% in other plants of this genus. Diosgenin, also known as Diosgenin, is one of the active ingredients in Fenugreek and is the main raw material used in the synthesis of various contraceptives and steroid hormones, and itself also has hepatoprotective, antioxidant effects, inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, treatment of osteoporosis and anti-diabetic functions.
