Ashok tree is one of the main herb for gynecological disorders and for uterus health.  It is traditionally used in Ayurveda as a powerful women’s herb, in particular as a uterine tonic to treat conditions including endometriosis and menstrual disorders associated with excess bleeding (rakta pradar), pain and congestion.

Ashoka Bark Benefits on Gynecological Disorders

Menstrual Problems

As an effective uterine tonic, Ashoka is hard to beat. It tones the uterus, easing heavy menstrual flow and relieving discomfort. The bark of the Ashoka tree is rich in flavonoids, tannins and glycosides that work as a uterine sedative that has a direct impact on the fibres present in the muscles of the uterus.

The bark also contains natural phytoestrogens which help to regulate the menstrual cycle, stimulating the uterus to normalise menstrual flow.

Ashoka can be effectively used to aid with a number of uncomfortable menstrual disorders such as; Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS), Amenorrhea (absent periods), Dysmenorrhea (painful periods) and Menorrhagia (heavy and prolonged menstrual bleeding).

Menopause

Recent studies have confirmed the presence of quercetin, beta-sitosterol and luteolin, phytoestrogens that support healthy hormonal function during the transition into the menopause. One particular study found that the bark exerts a balancing effect on artificially elevated oestrogen levels, exhibiting adaptogenic qualities that are referred to in Ayurveda as “herbal intelligence”. Furthermore, it can support the healthy production of oestrogen and progesterone only when it is needed.

The hormonal balance that is promoted by this herb makes it effective against many menopause symptoms including; hot flushes, night sweats, sleep problems, mood swings and weight gain.

Infertility

Ashoka is considered particularly effective for female infertility and endometriosis. One study, published in “Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice”, identified Ashoka as one of the herbal remedies used by traditional healers in remote areas of India to successfully treat “reproductive disorders”.

An article published in the “Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research”, explored some of the infertility treatments popular amongst Indian women. It said, “The drug of choice for female infertility is Ashoka, by its astringent taste and cold potency, it strengthens the uterus. It stops the bleeding by contracting the uterine blood vessels and promoting uterine muscular contraction. It stimulates the uterine function by stimulating the (endometrium) and the ovarian functions”.

It is important to note that diet and lifestyle were also addressed during treatment. The success of Ashoka in the treatment of infertility in women may be linked to the herb’s ability to successfully treat endometrios – one of the leading causes of infertility in women.

Final Word

Although Ashoka products and extracts can offer a variety of health benefits, it is important that you consult your health care provider or an Ayurvedic doctor before you begin using any formulation for an existing health condition. Keep in mind that the herb should be avoided by pregnant women as it can induce abortion. When using Ashoka, make sure to opt for products from reputed brands. If you’re having difficulty finding retailers in your area, you can also find a range of Ashoka products in our online store-www.flavonnindia.com

What is HCA in Garcinia Combogia?

The rind of the Cambodge fruit contains a phytochemical Hydroxycitric acid (HCA) which is widely used in anti-obesity drugs.

For the first time in nature, HCA is found in garcinia cambogia fruit. It constitutes approximately 20-30% of the fruit, on dry weight basis. It is very similar to citric acid, which is present in lemons. Several studies have found that hydroxycitric acid is safe to use and has no side effects up to 2800 milligrams per day. It is mostly marketed as a weight loss supplement and many studies claim that HCA when used alone or in combination with other supplements helps in weight loss.

Role of HCA in Weight loss

The HCA or hydroxycitric acid present in Garcinia inhibits an enzyme called citrate lyase, which plays an important role in the production of fat.

By inhibiting citrate lyase, Garcinia Cambogia is thought to slow or block fat production in your body. This may reduce blood fats and lower your risk of weight gain

Weightloss by Reducing Stress Hormones

Elevated cortisol levels in the body can result in increased weight gain, blood pressure and heart disease risk. Garcinia Cambogia helps to regulate, or lower levels of the stress cortisol within the body. Alongside this, Garcinia Cambogia increases serotonin levels which improves mood, and feelings of happiness.

Weightloss by Reducing carbohydrate metabolism

Garcinia Cambogia has been found to block carbohydrate metabolism by inhibiting the pancreatic enzyme alpha-amylase, this, in turn, leads to weight loss.

Garcinia cambogia fruit, seeds, roots, leaves as well as their extracts possess medicinal benefits and they are useful in the treatment of various diseases and disorders.

Garcinia cambogia extract is produced by extracting an active principle from its rind, fruit or roots. Solvent is used to release the active compounds present in garcinia cambogia. Extracts are usually made with either glycerin or ethanol (alcohol).

Hydroxycitric acid (active compound)  is extracted from garcinia cambogia fruit and it is usually available in the market in form of supplements (pills).

Garcinia cambogia supplements with HCA are marketed for weight loss.

Medicinal Benefits of Garcinia Cambogia Extract

Garcinia Cambogia is one such plant that contains a wide variety of health promoting compounds. Some of the health promoting chemical compounds includes:

• XANTHONES
• XANTHONE DERIVATIVES
• POLYISOPRENYLATED BENZOPHENONES
• HYDROXYCITRIC ACID (HCA)

Approximately 30% of these compounds are present in the flesh of garcinia cambogia fruit.

Some studies have found that POLYISOPRENYLATED BENZOPHENONES present in garcinia cambogia have anti-HIV and anti-bacterial effect and it also inhibits the action of harmful toxins and thus, protects the cell against damage. Furthermore, it even possesses antibiotic and anti-ulcer activities and modulates gene expression. It also has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties and thus, helps in the treatment of cancer.

Let us see these medicinal benefits of Garcinia Combogia /Kudampuly in detail below:

1.Antioxidant Properties

Extract of garcinia cambogia has the ability to neutralize harmful free radicals and it further inhibited the formation of reactive oxygen species. Thus, it can be said that garcinia cambogia extract prevents the onset of oxidative stress which leads to the the development and progression of various diseases and disorders such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, cataracts, Alzheimer’s disease and so on.

Such an antioxidant property is due to the presence of hydroxycitric acid, flavonoids and tannins in garcinia cambogia.

2.Antibacterial Properties

Research has found that both garcinia cambogia extract as well as its fruits exhibit anthelmintic properties and throw parasites out of the body. Garcinia cambogia works by inhibiting the mobility of bacteria and parasites and thus, it reduces their action. Higher doses were more effective as an anthelmintic against gastrointestinal worms. Garcinia cambogia fruit and leaves exhibit strong anti-bacterial property against gram positive and gram-negative bacteria.

A recent study showed antibacterial activity of garcinia cambogia fruit against E. coli, S. aures and P. aeruginosa. It killed the cells infected with bacteria and thus, reduced the overall infection.

3.Garcinia Cambogia for Weight Loss

It is found that garcinia cambogia plays a very important role in weight loss. This property of garcinia cambogia is mainly due to presence of an active component called ‘hydroxycitric acid’ in it.

Hydroxycitric acid inhibits the process of lipogenesis in which carbohydrate in converted to fat in the body. As this conversion is inhibited, body oxidizes carbohydrates and promotes glycogen storage. This in turn suppresses the appetite and thus decreases the body weight gain.

In addition to this, hydroxycitric acid increases the production of serotonin in the brain, which further leads to appetite suppression. Serotonin is a natural appetite suppressant that curbs the hunger cravings and helps in weight loss.

Reducing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Garcinia cambogia extract works on reducing the insulin resistance and improves the peripheral insulin sensitivity. Such effect increases the transport of glucose to cells and muscles and reduces the concentration of glucose and the blood. Thus, it reduces hyperglycemia or high plasma glucose levels.

High visceral fat mass plays an important role in the development of insulin resistance and high plasma glucose levels, thus leading to type 2 diabetes mellitus. Research has shown that garcinia cambogia extract reduces the level of visceral fat, subcutaneous fat as well as total body fat mass. Such a reduction in visceral fat mass reduces the level of insulin resistance

Reducing High Cholesterol & Triglyceride Levels

Garcinia cambogia extract works by inhibiting the activity of ATP lyase, an enzyme that plays a very important role in the manufacture of fat in the body. Such an inhibition reduces the amount of fat in the body and further reduces the formation of cholesterol and triglycerides. It further suppresses the formation of fat in the liver, adipose tissue and intestine.

Antiulcer Properties

Garcinia cambogia extract is very effective in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. It soothes the inner lining of the gastrointestinal tract and reduces the inflammation. During gastric ulcer the level of oxidative stress, free radical damage and inflammation increases which further deteriorates the condition. Therefore, it becomes very important to control these levels.

A study showed that garcinia cambogia extract reduced the level of oxidative stress in the gastrointestinal tract and decreased the markers of inflammation. It further inhibited gastric lesion and improved the gastric blood flow. An increase in the blood flow provides more nutrients and oxygen and thus nourishes the gastric area. In addition to this, it also increased the secretion of mucus, a viscous substance that protects the inner lining of the gastrointestinal tract against the harmful action of acid. Garcinia cambogia extract reduces the adhesion of harmful substances to the gastric area and accelerates healing of ulcer.

Anti-Inflammatory Property

Garcinia cambogia extract has a medicine-like effect that reduces the markers of inflammation. Tests showed that treatment with garcinia cambogia extract reduced the gastrointestinal damage and increased the level of antioxidants that further protected against inflammation. It further improved several parameters related to the disease. Thus, garcinia cambogia extract is very useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

Excess high fat intake increases the amount of fat in the body, elevates cholesterol level and also leads to increase in the level of inflammation. Adipocytes (cells that store fat) increase the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and thus increase the overall state of inflammation. The presence of health promoting compounds in garcinia cambogia such as xanthones, flavonoids, and benzophenones possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In addition to this, hydroxycitric acid present in garcinia cambogia also reduces inflammation.

Diuretic Activity

One study observed diuretic properties of garcinia cambogia leaf extract in rats. Garcinia cambogia leaf extract produced a diuretic effect and increased the volume of urine output as well as increased the excretion of electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and chloride. An increase in the level of electrolytes can lead to various disorders, which may be life threatening too. Active principles found in garcinia cambogia leaves that are responsible for its diuretic activity include flavonoids and glycosides. Thus, leaves of garcinia cambogia can be used for the treatment of edema.
