Deer Antler Extract Powder

Eucommia ulmoides extract powder is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herb that has been used to treat a variety of diseases. It is also known as du zhong, and comes from the Chinese rubber tree. Eucommia ulmoides contains many chemical compounds with medicinal properties, including: Phenolics and Steroids and terpenoids. Eucommia ulmoides has been used in TCM for centuries to support the endocrine system, improve kidney health, and strengthen bones and muscles. In the West, it is mostly known as a supplement to lower blood pressure.

High Blood Pressure
It is one of the 50 fundamental herbs used in Chinese herbology, where it is called dùzhòng. Eucommia extract may be able to help fight high blood pressure, a medical condition known as hypertension, according to a study by the Alternative Medicine Review in 2011.
In this study, 30 healthy adult volunteers each took one gram of Eucommia bark extract three times a day for two weeks. At the end of the testing period, results show that those who took Eucommia had their blood pressure reduced by an average of 7.5/3.9 mmHg. This result could be a game-changer for some people, especially those who are borderline hypertensive. In the long run, lower blood pressure could possibly lessen the risk of other various cardiovascular diseases from developing as well.

Arthritis
Another way in which Eucommia could benefit the human body is through the relief from osteoarthritis. This is arthritis which is found in the body's bones specifically. It has been shown a study in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology in 2015 that patients who consumed Eucommia extract showed the slowing progression of osteoarthritis. This could have been due to the reduction in inflammation in the body's joints, and the prevention of the breakdown of cartilage in the bones.

Diabetes
Eucommia extract could also prove to be helpful to those suffering from all types of diabetes, as well as in the prevention of diabetic complications. There has been recent research done that shows how Eucommia may help in the reduction of insulin resistance, a condition that is closely linked to diabetes. This could also possibly decrease one's likelihood of developing obesity. With regards to its effects on diabetes-related complications, there have been improvements seen in the levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and an improvement in renal fibrosis - which is a measurement of kidney damage.

Manufacture Elastic Materials
Because of the low production and high demand for natural rubber in China, a unique process has been developed to manufacture elastic materials with Eucommia ulmoides gum (EUG) as substitutes for natural rubber products. Unlike the latex used to produce natural rubber, the EUG is the polymer trans-1,4-polyisoprene. Thus materials made from EUG may demonstrate characteristics other than those of natural rubber, such as higher elasticity, lower thermoplastic temperature, etc.

As far as the science suggests, there have been no reported interactions between Eucommia and other drugs. However, this doesn't mean you shouldn't approach taking the supplement with caution. Eucommia contains many chemical compounds such as steroids, flavonoids, lignans, iridoids, phenolics, and more. Some of these compounds may cause unwanted side effects if taken in large doses.
If you plan to take Eucommia alongside other natural supplements, we recommend always consulting a medical professional for advice, especially if you're taking prescribed drugs or suffer from any preexisting physical health conditions.
