Product Description
Apigenin
Introduction
Apigenin is found in high amounts in parsley, thyme and peppermint. Apigenin is also found in a number of herbs, including chamomile, lemon balm, perilla, vervain, and yarrow. Apigenin is extracted from Chamomile flower.
Benefits of apigenin: apigenin is one of the flavonoids- more precisely one of the citrus bioflavonoids. Apigenin, just like most flavonoids, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor properties. As with many flavonoids, apigenin has potential to reduce the risk of cancer since it has anti-tumor activity. Apigenin also could potentially be useful in allergic conditions since it can have anti-inflammatory properties. It is a nontoxic dietary flavonoid that has been shown to possess anti-tumor properties and therefore poses special interest for the development of a novel chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agent for cancer.
Function
1)inhibit cancer-causing substances
2)antiviral agents for the treatment of HIV and other viral infections
3)Inhibitors of MAP kinase
4)calm and soothe the nerves
5)lower blood pressure
