[Function]

Resveratrol is an active component extracted from Huzhang (Polygonum cuspidatum) in China.

It is an antioxidant phenol and a potent vasodilator that inhibits serum triglyceride synthesis, lipid peroxidation, and platelet aggregation.

It is extensively used for treatment of blood vessel disease such as atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia. In addition, it has anti-virus and anti inflammatory activity, can treat acute microbial infections and viral hepatitis.

Herbal medicine is the study and use of medicinal properties of plants. The scope of herbal medicine is sometimes extended to include fungal and bee products, as well as minerals, shells and certain animal parts. Pharmacognosy is the study of all medicines that are derived from natural sources.The bark of willow trees contains large amounts of salicylic acid, which is the active metabolite of aspirin. Willow bark has been used for millennia as an effective pain reliever and fever reducer.

Plants have the ability to synthesize a wide variety of chemical compounds that are used to perform important biological functions, and to defend against attack from predators such as insects, fungi and herbivorous mammals. Many of these phytochemicals have beneficial effects on long-term health when consumed by humans, and can be used to effectively treat human diseases. At least 12,000 such compounds have been isolated so far; a number estimated to be less than 10% of the total.Chemical compounds in plants mediate their effects on the human body through processes identical to those already well understood for the chemical compounds in conventional drugs; thus herbal medicines do not differ greatly from conventional drugs in terms of how they work. This enables herbal medicines to be as effective as conventional medicines, but also gives them the same potential to cause harmful side effects.
The use of plants as medicines predates written human history. Ethnobotany (the study of traditional human uses of plants) is recognized as an effective way to discover future medicines. In 2001, researchers identified 122 compounds used in modern medicine which were derived from “ethnomedical” plant sources; 80% of these have had an ethnomedical use identical or related to the current use of the active elements of the plant.[4] Many of the pharmaceuticals currently available to physicians have a long history of use as herbal remedies, including aspirin, digitalis, quinine, and opium.
The use of herbs to treat disease is almost universal among non-industrialized societies, and is often more affordable than purchasing expensive modern pharmaceuticals. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 80 percent of the population of some Asian and African countries presently use herbal medicine for some aspect of primary health care. Studies in the United States and Europe have shown that their use is less common in clinical settings, but has become increasingly more in recent years as scientific evidence about the effectiveness of herbal medicine has become more widely available.

In this video I discuss what are complex carbohydrates, and some foods that contain them. I also discuss what is starch food, and I cover some starchy foods. I also look at what are polysaccharides, and what are oligosaccharides, and how some oligosaccharides are prebiotic foods.

Transcript (partial with notes).

What are complex carbohydrates?

Complex carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides, or simple sugar molecules, not the table sugar that might come to mind, and these molecules are joined together to form long chains. There are mainly two classifications of complex carbohydrates, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides.

Oligosaccharides consist of 3 to 10 simple sugars joined together such as fructo-oligosaccharides which consist of a short chain of fructose molecules. Most oligosaccharides are not digested in the body because we lack an enzyme to break them down, meaning that some of them are a form of fiber.

Some forms of oligosaccharides act as a prebiotic, which means they promote the growth of good gut bacteria. Foods that contain oligosaccharides include chicory root, artichokes, onions, garlic and asparagus.

Polysaccharides consist of more than 10 simple sugars joined together. Starch and cellulose are 2 of the main polysaccharides. Starch consists of many glucose molecules joined together, and the body can break them down and use the glucose for energy. Starchy foods include potatoes, rice, wheat, and corn.

Cellulose also consists of many bonded glucose units, however their bond are different that starches, and the body cannot break them down. So, cellulose is a form of fiber.

Cellulose fiber helps remove waste from the body and it can also bind to excess cholesterol and sugar in the intestines and remove them in solid waste. Foods high in cellulose include fruits, veggies, grains and nuts.

Complex carbohydrates are digested more slowly than simple carbs, as it takes the body longer to break them down, and their fiber content naturally slows digestion, making you feel fuller.
