Function

  1. Anti-inflammatory Properties:
    • Epilobium Parviflorum Extract exhibits significant anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting key inflammatory mediators such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase。This dual action helps manage inflammatory conditions, including those affecting the prostate and urinary tract.
  2. Antioxidant Effects:
    • The extract is rich in polyphenols, which neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage。This antioxidant activity is crucial for overall cellular health and longevity.
  3. Prostate Health Support:
    • Epilobium Parviflorum Extract is particularly noted for its ability to support prostate health. It may help alleviate symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme involved in prostate enlargement。Clinical studies have shown significant improvements in urinary symptoms and overall quality of life.
  4. Urinary Tract Health:
    • The extract’s anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties make it beneficial for managing urinary tract infections and reducing bladder irritation.
  5. Potential Anticancer Effects:
    • Preliminary in vitro studies have demonstrated anticancer potential, particularly against prostate cancer cells。However, further research is needed to confirm these effects in clinical settings.

Application
