The 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 it’s hot, the antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antioxidant
properties of hawthorn extract are welcome to reduce
bacteria, oxidation effects and more. Already found
to have favorable benefits for cardiovascular health and
treatment of cardiovascular disorders due to its flavonoid content,
the hawthorn tree’s flavonoid content determined it to be
valuable for more issues including spinal cord injury
and staph infection. (1,2) Most Chiropractic Clinic establishes
Murfreesboro chiropractic treatment plans with incorporated
nutrition to tackle these issues and more with nutrients like
those from hawthorn when appropriate. The Murfreesboro chiropractic care is very
centered on what your body needs!
FLAVONOIDS IN HAWTHORN LEAVES’ EXTRACT
Hawthorn leaves’ antioxidant and antimicrobial attributes
are expanding its reputation as a popular herbal
medicine plant. Hawthorn’s total phenols, total flavonoid content, and
antioxidant activity tested well in a recent study, especially
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 showed
the strongest antibacterial level against bacteria, particularly
stapholococcus aureus (SA). It damaged the cell wall and membrane
of SA and stopped its enzyme activity, raised
reactive oxygen species, changed gene expression, and
provoked SA cell death. (3) Hawthorn’s methanol extract is potent!
FLAVONOIDS IN CARE OF SPINAL CORD INJURY
Research set to
be published in 2021 presents the powerful therapeutic
benefits of hawthorn leaves’ flavonoids for spine cord injury. Hawthorn leaves
were found to contain an
abundance of total flavonoid species and content. Research reported
that such plenty of
flavonoids can decrease apoptosis (cell death) and use
neuroprotective effects to stimulate motor function in
rats with spinal cord injury. (4) An appealing step in the
direction of possible human benefit and Murfreesboro
back pain reduction.
