Ge hua aqueous extract can agonize the alcohol dehydrogenase activity and reduce the concentration of ethanol and can have protective effect on alcohol-induced liver cell damage.
Ge hua active ingredients can improve alcohol metabolism and liver function and can improve the gastrointestinal disorders and organ dysfunction caused by alcohol. Researchers at the University of Fukuoka, Japan, separated from the ge hua 13 kinds of isoflavones, and 3 kinds of saponin, and have determined their chemical structures. In experiments on human cells, they found that one of these saponins has a strong hepatoprotective effect, and the isoflavones can eliminate reactive oxygen. The redox effect of isoflavones and it can accelerate the oxidation of alcohol, so that the ethanol loses its toxicity. It can shrink and protect the gastrointestinal mucosa and slow down the absorption of alcohol, preventing large amount of alcohol getting quickly into the bloodstream.
The chemical ingredients saponins and isoflavones coordinating with the immune system and the endocrine system, can improve the metabolism of alcohol-induced abnormalities of metabolism, and can prevent the hangover effect 葛花水提物通過激活乙醇脫氫酶的活性來降低乙醇的濃度，對酒精引起的肝細胞損害有保護作用。 葛花的有效成分對酒精代謝障礙及肝功能有改善作用，對酒精引起的臟器障礙及消化道功能障礙也有一定作用。日本福岡大學的科研人員從葛花中分離出13種異黃酮和3種皂角苷，並確定了它們的結構。在對人體細胞的實驗中，他們發現其中的一種皂角苷有強大的保肝功效，而異黃酮則有強烈的消除活性氧的作用。它能加速酒精氧化而使乙醇失去毒性。它能收縮和保護胃腸黏膜．減緩酒精的吸收．阻止酒精快速大量地進入血液循環。 葛花中含有的皂角苷和異黃酮分別在免疫系統和內分泌系統發揮協調作用，它們共同作用可以改善酒精引起的新陳代謝異常，從而發生解酒醒酒作用。 |
