What is lime extract?
Lime Extract Powder is extracted and processed from lime, and contains active ingredients such as flavonoids, alkaloids, and volatile compounds. It has pharmacological effects such as regulating gastrointestinal motility, regulating uterine function, increasing blood pressure, strengthening the heart, anti-oxidation, antibacterial, analgesic, and anti-thrombotic.
Main ingredients
Lime is rich in nutrients, including protein, fat, dietary fiber, carbohydrates, carotene, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, ascorbic acid, vitamin E, vitamin C and a large number of trace elements, as well as hesperidin, naringin, naringin, limonin, narcotine, citric acid, malic acid, etc. The peel contains volatile oils and more than 70 active substances.
Citrus aurantium extract promotes autophagy
The human body has basic metabolic reactions. Cells degrade unnecessary or dysfunctional cellular components through the action of lysosomes. Skin autophagy is a naturally occurring detoxification process that continuously degrades and continuously renews damaged cellular components. Removing cell damage can regulate the normal survival and basic functions of skin cells.
The reduction of autophagy can lead to the accumulation of cell damage, increase inflammation and reactive oxygen species, disrupt cell metabolism, and lead to aging at the cellular level. Activating this biological detoxification process can maintain skin homeostasis and offset problems such as age-related skin cell function decline.
Citrus aurantium (CITRUS AURANTIUM DULCIS) fruit extract can activate the autophagy of fibroblasts and promote cell metabolism, thereby maintaining skin homeostasis.
The figure above shows that compared with untreated fibroblasts, fibroblasts treated with 0.01%, 0.1% and 1.0% orange fruit extract showed an increase of 4%, 9% and 26% in autophagic lysosomal vacuoles, which obviously exceeded the effect achieved by the drug 40μM chloroquine.
What are the benefits?
Modern pharmacological studies have shown that sour orange extract has pharmacological effects such as regulating gastrointestinal motility, regulating uterine function, increasing blood pressure, strengthening the heart, anti-oxidation, antibacterial, analgesic, and anti-thrombotic.
1. Effects on the gastrointestinal tract
The water extract of unripe dried fruits of sour orange has a bidirectional regulatory effect on gastrointestinal and uterine smooth muscles, which can not only promote gastrointestinal motility, but also reduce smooth muscle tension and play an antispasmodic effect. The excitatory effect of gastrointestinal smooth muscles in vivo is produced by cholinergic pathway activation and inhibition of nerve fiber nitric oxide synthase activity, while the inhibitory effect in vitro is achieved through nitric oxide and adrenergic systems, and its efficacy comes from flavonoids and volatile oil compounds. The water extract can also improve gastric emptying in rats with functional dyspepsia, and its mechanism may be related to the increased distribution of substance P and motilin in gastric antral tissue and the reduction of vasoactive intestinal peptide. The volatile oil in unripe dried fruits has a significantly stronger effect on promoting gastric motility than flavonoids, and flavonoids have a stronger effect on accelerating intestinal motility than volatile oils. Lime volatile oil is used in medicine to treat gastritis and other diseases. In vitro biological analysis found that volatile oil can effectively protect rat gastric damage induced by anhydrous ethanol and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and does not affect gastric acid secretion and the levels of serum gastrin and glutathione in the gastric mucosa. It may achieve gastric protection by maintaining PGE2 concentration to increase gastric mucus production.
2. Effect on the central nervous system
Lime is widely used to improve anxiety, which is related to its central nervous system effect. The elevated cross maze test found that lime peel volatile oil can reduce the anxiety of mice. Further light and dark box and marble burying behavior tests confirmed that volatile oil has a certain improvement effect on generalized anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive (mental) disorder in mice. Its volatile oil can also significantly reduce the number of writhing reactions and spontaneous activities of mice caused by acetic acid, showing a certain degree of analgesia and central inhibition. In addition, p-hydroxyfrine extract of lime can also effectively reduce the spontaneous activity of mice, and its water extract has a depression-relieving effect comparable to imipramine.
3. Anti-obesity effect
Oral administration of lime extract can significantly reduce the food intake of rats and control weight gain. The main active ingredients are phenylethylamine alkaloids mainly composed of parahydroxyfrine, which can stimulate lipolysis, increase metabolic rate, and promote fat oxidation by increasing heat generation, thereby reducing the fat mass of obese bodies.
4. Antioxidant activity
The scavenging ability of lime crude extract, purified flavonoids and their monomers for hydroxyl radicals and DPPH radicals increases with the increase of concentration. Compared with flavonoid monomers, the extract has a stronger antioxidant effect, and there may be a synergistic effect between the monomers. Through diabetic mouse experiments, it was found that the extract of unripe dried lime can significantly enhance the antioxidant capacity of the liver and effectively reduce liver cell damage. In addition, the white cortex and seed extracts of mature limes showed strong free radical scavenging ability, and the antioxidant capacity of the peel after dehydration was significantly higher than that of the pulp sample.
