With the rapid development of science and technology, people's demand for health care and anti-aging drugs, food and beauty products has increased year by year. China has a long history of drug use, and plant resources are widely distributed and abundant, which provides a broad world for the development of these nutritional and health products. However, despite the large reserves of medicinal plants in China, the waste phenomenon is very serious. For example, the abandoned leftovers and residues can reach billions of tons every year. Pomegranate is one of them. Why do you say that? As a fruit tree with a long history of medicinal use in China, pomegranate planting area is increasing day by day, and the development of pomegranate products is gradually deepening and diversifying. However, a large number of pomegranate skins rich in active ingredients have not been reasonably utilized, and are mostly discarded as garbage. However, pomegranate peel seems useless, but it is actually a treasure change!
Pomegranate peel is rich in tannins. The strong antioxidant properties of active substance monomers such as pomegranate glycoside, anliulin and ellagic acid mean that they have anticancer, anti-tumor, antibacterial, anti-virus and other medicinal activities. Anliulin and anliugenin are the main tannins in pomegranate peel. They play a major role in pomegranate peel and make a great contribution to the biological activity of pomegranate peel.
In peelAnshi durian forestIt has many pharmacological activities. For example:
1. inhibition of HIV-1 virus
It was found that durian can inhibit HIV-1 reverse transcriptase in lymphocyte H9. Studies have shown that he can affect the reproduction of HIV by reducing the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase.
2. liver protection
It was found that the anti-oxidation effect of pomegranate glycoside and pomegranate forest and their protective effect on paracetamol induced liver injury. Studies have shown that the two tannins have strong antioxidant effects. Small doses of tannins can protect the liver, but large doses of tannins will cause toxic reactions
3. effect on intestinal bacteria
Durian had no inhibitory effect on most intestinal bacteria, and even had a slight growth promoting effect.
4. anti inflammatory effect
It was found that pomegranate forest and pomegranate glycoside had certain resistance to carrageenan induced inflammation in mice. It was found that the anti-inflammatory effect of ampicillin decreased with the increase of its dose. The reason may be that the toxicity of alanine is greater than that of alanine. Increasing the dosage increases the damage to cells, so the anti-inflammatory effect is weakened.
Therefore, the pomegranate pulp is delicious and juicy, and the peel is also a treasure that can be fully utilized. If we can extract the ingredients such as pomegranate forest and pomegranate glycoside, the development and research will bring good economic benefits.
