The hawthorn tree…more than just a shade tree growing in the northern hemisphere. The hawthorn tree’s medicinal reputation
is growing! Just as its shade is welcome when it’s hot, the antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antioxidant
properties of hawthorn extract are welcome to diminish
bacteria, oxidation effects and more. Previously reported
to have promising benefits for cardiovascular health and
treatment of cardiovascular disorders via its flavonoid content,
the hawthorn tree’s flavonoid content determined it to be
useful for more issues including spinal cord injury
and staph infection. (1,2) Apple Country Chiropractic establishes
Williamson chiropractic treatment plans with integrated
nutrition to address these issues and more with nutrients like
those from hawthorn when proper. The Williamson chiropractic care is very
centered on what your body needs!
FLAVONOIDS IN HAWTHORN LEAVES’ EXTRACT
Hawthorn leaves’ antioxidant and antimicrobial attributes
are growing its reputation as a popular herbal
medicine plant. Hawthorn’s total phenols, total flavonoid content, and
antioxidant activity tested well in a new 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 harmed the cell wall and membrane
of SA and stopped its enzyme activity, raised
reactive oxygen species, transformed gene expression, and
triggered SA cell death. (3) Hawthorn’s methanol extract is potent!
FLAVONOIDS IN CARE OF SPINAL CORD INJURY
Research arranged for a publication date of 2021 presents the powerful therapeutic
benefits of hawthorn leaves’ flavonoids for spine cord injury. Hawthorn leaves
were found to have an
abundance of total flavonoid species and content. Research described
that this kind of plenty of
flavonoids can reduce apoptosis (cell death) and utlilize
neuroprotective effects to foster motor function in
rats with spinal cord injury. (4) An interesting step toward potential human benefit and Williamson
back pain decline.
