A hawthorn tree…more than just a shade tree that
grows in the northern hemisphere. The hawthorn tree’s medicinal status
is growing! Just as its shade is welcome when the sun is
strong, the antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antioxidant
properties of hawthorn extract are welcome to diminish
bacteria, oxidation effects and more. Already recorded
to have promising benefits for cardiovascular health and
treatment of cardiovascular disorders via its flavonoid content,
the hawthorn tree’s flavonoid content established it as
useful for more issues including spinal cord injury
and staph infection. (1,2) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic creates
Fort Wayne chiropractic treatment plans with incorporated
nutrition to address these issues and more with nutrients like
those from hawthorn when appropriate. The Fort Wayne chiropractic care is always
focused on what your body requires!
FLAVONOIDS IN HAWTHORN LEAVES’ EXTRACT
Hawthorn leaves’ antioxidant and antimicrobial attributes
are growing its reputation as a well-known herbal
medicine plant. Hawthorn’s total phenols, total flavonoid content, and
antioxidant activity tested well in a recent study, particularly
for hyperoside, chlorogenic acid, and isoquercetin in hawthorn fruits. (2) Methanol
and ethanol extracts of hawthorn showed high levels of total
flavonoids and polyphenols. The methanol extract of hawthorn had
the strongest antibacterial level against bacteria, particularly
stapholococcus aureus (SA). It harmed the cell wall and membrane
of SA and inhibited its enzyme activity, raised
reactive oxygen species, transformed gene expression, and
provoked SA cell death. (3) Hawthorn’s methanol extract is powerful!
FLAVONOIDS IN CARE OF SPINAL CORD INJURY
Research set to
be published in 2021 reports on powerful therapeutic
benefits of hawthorn leaves’ flavonoids for spine cord injury. Hawthorn leaves
were tested and discovered to contain plenty of total flavonoid species and content. Research described
that this kind of plenty of
flavonoids can lessen apoptosis (cell death) and use
neuroprotective effects to promote motor function in
rats with spinal cord injury. (4) An interesting step toward possible human benefit and Fort Wayne
back pain decrease.
