Angelica Extract Powder (Dong Quai), 1% Ligustilide

Description

Angelica Extract Powder : Also known as “Dong Quai” in Chinese, it is an ancient Chinese herbal plant that has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. The roots and stems of Angelica contain important compounds such as “Ligustilide,” which has anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. It helps nourish the digestive system and also plays a role in hormone balance and alleviating menstrual pain. It is popularly used as an ingredient in various forms of dietary supplements, such as capsules, tablets, and teas.

Ligustilide : It is a compound belonging to the dihydrophthalide group found naturally in plants such as Angelica sinensis and other Angelica species. The chemical structure of Ligustilide consists of two phenyl rings connected by an ethylene bridge, with one carbonyl (C=O) group and one methyl (CH2) group. It has diverse mechanisms of action, including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, and anti-oxidative stress properties.

Key Benefits of Angelica Extract Powder

• Menstrual Pain Relief : The compound Ligustilide in Angelica extract powder has anti-inflammatory and muscle-relaxing properties, which help alleviate abdominal and back pain, as well as mood swings commonly experienced before menstruation. Ligustilide works by inhibiting the release of prostaglandins that cause uterine contractions, relaxing uterine smooth muscles, and reducing inflammation in the pelvic region.
• Hormonal Balance : Ligustilide stimulates the secretion of estrogen and progesterone hormones, helping to balance female hormones, alleviate menopausal symptoms, regulate menstrual cycles, and reduce vaginal discharge.
• Blood Nourishment : Angelica extract powder is rich in iron, an essential component of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen to cells throughout the body. Insufficient iron intake can lead to low hemoglobin levels, resulting in anemia symptoms such as fatigue, pallor, palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, and confusion.        Angelica extract helps alleviate anemia by increasing red blood cell and hemoglobin production, improving iron absorption, and relieving fatigue and pallor. In addition to iron, Angelica extract contains vitamin B12, folic acid, and other minerals such as copper, magnesium, and zinc, which work together to produce new red blood cells, improve blood circulation, and promote overall health.
• Stress Reduction : Ligustilide stimulates the secretion of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that inhibits the activity of the nervous system, promoting a sense of calm, relaxation, stress reduction, and improved sleep.
• Immune System Boost : Angelica extract powder contains high levels of antioxidants such as ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid, and polyphenols, which enhance the immune system through various mechanisms, including:
  • Stimulating the activity of white blood cells : Antioxidants in Angelica extract stimulate the activity of various types of white blood cells, such as natural killer (NK) cells and T cells, enhancing their ability to fight infections more effectively.
  • Increasing the production of antioxidants : Our bodies have their own antioxidant production systems, but as we age, our bodies may produce less. Angelica extract helps increase the production of antioxidants within the body, allowing the body to produce more antioxidants.
  • Reducing inflammation : Chronic inflammation is a contributing factor to various diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and arthritis. Antioxidants help reduce chronic inflammation.
