Introduction

Pomegranate, (Punica granatum L in Latin), belongs to the family Punicaceae which includes only one genus and two species. The tree is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and has been cultivated since ancient times throughout the Mediterranean region of Asia, Africa and Europe.

Pomegranate offers abundant benefits for the cardiovascular system by preventing damage to arterial walls, promoting healthy blood pressure levels, improving blood flow to the heart, and preventing or reversing atherosclerosis.

Pomegranate may benefit people with diabetes and those at risk for the disease. It helps lower after-meal blood sugar levels and protects the cardiovascular system from diabetes-induced damage.

Pomegranate shows promise in killing prostate cancer cells, whether the cells are hormone-sensitive or not. Pomegranate also helped halt the progression of prostate cancer in men who had undergone surgery or radiation for the disease.

Pomegranate may fight the degeneration of joint tissue that leads to painful osteoarthritis, and may protect the brain against oxidative stress-induced changes that can lead to Alzheimer’s. Pomegranate extracts—alone or in combination with the herb gotu kola—help kill the bacteria that contribute to dental plaque, while helping to heal gum disease. Pomegranate also appears to protect the health of the skin and liver.

Function

1.Anti-cancer of rectum and colon, esophageal carcinoma,liver cancer,lung cancer,carcinoma of tongue and skin.

2.Restrain to human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) and many kinds of microbe and virus.

3.Anti-oxidant, coagulant, descenting blood pressure and sedation.

4.Resist to anti-oxidance, senescence inhibition and skin whitening

5.Treat kinds of symptoms caused by high blood sugar, hypertension.

6.Resist to atherosclerosis and tumour.

Application

Pomegranate P.E. can be made into capsules, troche and granule as healthy food. Besides, it has good solubility in water plus the solution transparence and brilliance color, has been widely added into the beverage as the functional content.

Die Ginseng Radix ist eine Pflanzendroge, die von der Wurzel des Ginseng 6-7 Jahre nach der Kultivierung der Pflanze durch das Herausreißen der Pflanze meist mitte September gewonnen wird. Der Ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.) ist eine in koreanischen, chinesischen und sibirischen Berg- und Waldregionen vorkommende 30-60 cm hohe Pflanze. In diesen Regionen wird Ginseng seit Jahrtausenden als Heilpflanze eingesetzt. Je nach Aufarbeitung der Wurzel werden verschiedene Arten der Pflanzendroge erhalten.

Ginsenoside sind Saponine, welche aus der Ginsengwurzel gewonnen werden. Ginsenoside sind die Glycoside des Protopanaxadiols, des Protopanaxatriols und der Oleansäure, also Triterpen-Aglycone mit jeweils 30 C-Atomen. Diese sind mit einem bis zu mehreren Zuckerteilen glycosiliert. In der Ginsengwurzel konnten bisher bis zu 150 verschiedene Ginsenoside isoliert werden.
