We are offering yashtimadhu capsules.
Yashtimadhu has been used for sweetening candies for generations. It is also one of the world's most widely researched herbs for its role in supporting the body’s normal digestive function.
Researchers at the department of experimental pharmacology, the university of naples, italy, name yashtimadhu as a digestive herb that ‘has been used extensively and had its clinical efficacy documented.’ they also suggest the use of yashtimadhu as a dietary adjunct to existing therapies.
Scientists at the laboratory of natural medicinal materials, tokyo, japan, point out that yashtimadhu features in ancient greek, roman, egyptian and chinese systems of medicine as one of their most frequently used plants. In japan, the oldest specimen of yashtimadhu, brought from china in the 8th century, still exists in the imperial storehouse in shosoin.
Active constituents:
the principal constituent of yashtimadhu and the component that gives yashtimadhu its characteristically sweet taste, is called glycyrrhizin (also known as glycyrrhizic acid and glycyrrhizinic acid), a saponin glycoside that is 50 times as sweet as sucrose. Its flavonoid constituents include liquiritigenin and isoliquiritigenin. Glycyrrhizin is a gastroprotective and increases the rate of mucus secretion by the gastric mucosa. Glycyrrhizin is also responsible for the demulcent, expectorant and antitussive properties of yashtimadhu and is beneficial in reducing inflammation in the body.
