Many people feel fatigued after a lot of exercises, and some even experience muscle fatigue for several days. The direct source of energy required by the human body during exercise is the decomposition of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The synthesis of ATP can be carried out in two forms of energy supply, namely anaerobic metabolism and aerobic metabolism. There are three working under these two forms of energy supply. There are two energy supply systems, namely high-energy phosphate system (ATP.CP system), lactic acid system (anaerobic glycolysis system), and aerobic oxidation system.
The energy supply for anaerobic metabolism is provided by the anaerobic decomposition of substances. It is mainly supplied by the ATP-CP system and the anaerobic glycolysis system. The energy produced is less, and when the metabolite lactic acid accumulates to a certain amount, it will inhibit the synthesis of ATP. , And can cause muscle fatigue. When the human body performs aerobic exercise under sufficient oxygen supply conditions, it can produce a lot of energy. Metabolites such as lactic acid and creatine during anaerobic metabolism can be completely eliminated under the conditions of aerobic energy supply.
Anti-fatigue
Research experiments have shown that Cistanche can not only increase the blood hemoglobin content, thereby enhancing the body's oxygen transport capacity, but also increase the activity of ATPase, promote aerobic oxidation, improve energy metabolism, reduce the production of lactic acid, and accelerate the clearance of lactic acid in the blood, thereby accelerating Eliminate fatigue and have the effect of anti-sports fatigue.
It has been reported in the literature that Cistanche can extend the swimming time of mice, reduce the increase in serum creatine kinase after exercise, and keep the ultrastructure of mouse skeletal muscle normal after exercise, indicating that Cistanche has the effect of enhancing physical strength and anti-fatigue; Japan Scholars have confirmed in experiments that Cistanche Decoction can increase the anti-fatigue ability of mice, and the effect is dose-dependent, which is consistent with reports in the literature.
Anti-fatigue
Cistanche is the best nourishing medicinal material in China
The traditional Chinese medicine Cistanche was first published in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and was listed as top grade. There are records in ancient Chinese famous medical books, such as "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Famous Doctors Bilu" and so on. Cistanche is indispensable in the many tonic prescriptions and health medicinal wines in ancient my country. It is mainly used To enhance physical strength, fight fatigue, improve immunity, and nourish the kidney and yang.
The modern authoritative medical monographs "Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine" and "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" also include and record Cistanche deserticola.
