2. Whitening

The active ingredient phenylethanol total glycoside in Cistanche deserticola has a significant downregulation effect on the activity of tyrosinase, which can effectively inhibit skin pigmentation, remove excess melanin from the body, while detoxifying the body, regulating endocrine function, and has a highly whitening effect.

3. Antioxidant and anti-aging properties

The phenylethanol glycoside compounds in Cistanche deserticola have the effects of clearing free radicals, increasing SOD (superoxide dismutase) activity, and reducing MDA (malondialdehyde) content. Polysaccharides from Cistanche deserticola have the effects of delaying organ physiological degradation and cellular morphological degeneration. All of the above components can have antioxidant and anti-aging effects.

4. Neuroprotection

The active ingredient phenylethanol total glycoside in Cistanche deserticola can protect nerve cells, inhibit neuronal apoptosis, improve cell survival rate, repair neurons, and effectively resist Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.

5. Protecting against cerebral ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion injury

The effective component of Cistanche deserticola, total glycosides of Cistanche deserticola, can significantly reduce the range of cerebral infarction, improve neurological symptoms, increase the activities of GSH Px (glutathione peroxidase) and SOD (superoxide dismutase) in brain tissue, reduce the content of MDA (malondialdehyde), and have a good protective effect on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.

6. Improve learning and memory abilities

effects of cistance-Anti Alzheimer's disease

The active ingredient phenylethanol total glycoside metabolites in Cistanche deserticola can directly act on brain cells through the blood-brain barrier to relieve mental stress, change health status, increase brain capacity, promote brain cell metabolism, and ultimately delay brain cell aging, improve memory, and maintain sustained brain cell activity.

7. Immune regulation

The effective component of Cistanche deserticola, total glycosides of Cistanche deserticola, has an effect on 60Co γ The recovery of cells after radiation damage has a significant effect, and can also improve immune function against radiation damage. At the same time, polysaccharides from Cistanche deserticola and glycosides from Scutellaria can also enhance the body's immune system.

8. Anti-fatigue and enhancing physical strength

Effects of Cistanche-Immprove  kidney function

Phenylethanol glycosides in Cistanche deserticola can store energy by reducing muscle damage and delaying lactate accumulation, thereby exerting anti-fatigue effects; Cistanche water decoction can improve exercise endurance, and accelerate the elimination of fatigue, reduce the increase in serum creatine kinase after load exercise, maintain normal skeletal muscle ultrastructure after exercise, and achieve the effect of enhancing physical strength.

9. Promote bone growth

The effective component of Echinacetin in Cistanche deserticola can enhance various indicators of bone tissue, increase the proportion of osteoprotegerin (OPC) and osteoclast differentiation factor-kB, and highlight its advantageous role in promoting bone regeneration.

10. Runchang laxative

The components of galactose and oligosaccharides in Cistanche deserticola can significantly promote intestinal peristalsis, increase intestinal osmotic pressure, and inhibit water absorption in the large intestine; Guanhua Cistanche belongs to the warm and nourishing nature and has the effect of promoting bowel movements without damaging vital energy.

11. Anti-inflammatory effects

Experimental results have shown that the extract of Cistanche deserticola, which is rich in quercetin, has a good improvement effect on colitis induced by sodium gluconate sulfate; Cistanche glycoside K and anthocyanin B have a good inhibitory effect on the secretion of nitric oxide in LPS induced BV-2 cells, demonstrating their good anti-inflammatory effect.

12. Radiation resistance

The landmark component of Cistanche deserticola, total glycosides of Cistanche deserticola, can significantly promote the recovery of SOD activity in red blood cells and nucleic acid content in spleen cells after 60CO irradiation damage, reduce MDA content in liver cells, significantly reduce Se GSH Px activity in cells after radiation damage, increase MDS content, and thus achieve radiation resistance.

13. Anti-allergy

The effective component of hairy stamen glycoside in Cistanche deserticola can effectively inhibit the production of histamine and TNF in human alkaline cell lines (KU812)- α, Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and β- The release of peroxidase has an anti-allergic effect.

14. Relaxation of blood vessels (lowering blood pressure)

The active ingredient in Cistanche deserticola, quercetin, has an endothelial-dependent vasodilation effect on the aortic ring; Kankanoside F, Kankanose, Verbascoside, and Cistanoside F, all of the phenylethanolamide compounds, have vasodilatory effects.

Over time, the inner wall of a person's blood vessels thickens, and their heart rate increases. Echinoside can increase nos (a rate-limiting enzyme) and cyclic uridine phosphate, which can slow down heart rate, inhibit myocardial contractility, relax blood vessels, and thus lower blood pressure.
