CELLOG™
Blood
and immune health
Cellog
is uniquely formulated herb medicine for supporting health functions of
platelets and bone marrow. It has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immune
modulation capabilities.
FUNCTIONS
Caffeic
acid is a phytochemical found naturally in green tea extract, ginger extract,
olive leaf extract and curcumin. It is also found in a variety of vegetables
fruits including, cayenne pepper, celery, thyme, tarragon, black tea,
cucumbers, apples, potatoes, radishes, cabbage, grapefruit, bell peppers and of
course coffee. Studies show that caffeic acid and its phenethyl ester (CAPE)
have multiple positive health and anti-aging impacts. It has anti-oxidant,
anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial capabilities [1]. It inhibits the growth
of tumor cells by inhibition of nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-kappaB) [2] and
anti-metastatic by dually inhibiting MMP-2 and -9 enzyme activities and gene
transcription [3, 4].
Agrimonia is a herb traditionally used in Chinese medicine for a wide variety of health supporting purpose. Agrimony leaves are rich in vitamin K and are traditionally used to promote blood clotting and control bleeding. The stems and the leaves of Agrimonia pilosa have shown diverse pharmacological properties such as anti-tumor, analgesic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory [5], hypoglycemic and vasoconstrictor activities. The plant is used in the treatment of abdominal pain, sore throat, headaches, bloody and mucoid dysentery and heat stroke. Recently, it is found to inhibit AChE (Acetylcholinesterase), an attractive target for treatment of the Alzheimer-type dementia [6]. Agrimoniin, a tannin contained in Agrimonia pilosa LEDEB, is found to be a potent antitumor tannin. Its effects may be due to this tannin enhancing the immune response of the host animals through the actions on tumor cells and some immunocytes [7, 8].
