Tested by many authoritative departments, Camellia chrysantha is rich in natural organic trace elements such as germanium, selenium, molybdenum, manganese, vanadium and zinc. It is very important for human health. It is also rich in tea polyphenols, amino acids, saponins, flavonoids and other beneficial components needed by the human body, with more than 400 kinds of chemical substances. It has the functions of anti-cancer, inhibiting tumor growth, anti-aging, enhancing immunity, lowering cholesterol, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood lipid, enhancing myocardial contractility and vascular elasticity, preventing atherosclerosis, improving liver metabolism, activating various enzymes, balancing the body and so on, and belongs to a non-toxic plant.
Lowering blood sugar: Camellia is rich in polysaccharide. Polysaccharide can effectively control postprandial blood sugar rise, improve glucose tolerance, improve lipid metabolism disorder, and has obvious hypoglycemic effect. Camellia chrysantha is rich in tea polyphenols. Tea polyphenols can scavenge free radicals and reduce the increase of blood sugar in DM, thus improving its glucose tolerance and stabilizing blood sugar.
Analgesic effect: The content of camellia saponin is 6300mg/kg, which can strengthen the heart, relax blood vessels, resist fatigue, slow down the heart rate and bipolar blood pressure, promote the biosynthesis of DNA, protein and lipids, quench thirst, promote fluid production, expel pus, relieve swelling, relieve sore throat and pain, and relieve fever and pain.
Antibacterial diuretic effect: the content of total flavonoids in camellia. 4400mg/kg, can dilate coronary vessels, reduce hypertension, enhance cardiac contraction, lower heartbeat, quench thirst and eliminate phlegm, resist bacteria and inflammation, resist capillary fragility and abnormal permeability, resist tumor, protect liver and gallbladder, stop diarrhea and relieve spasm, and has the functions of ootheca mantidis, relieving fever and pain, lowering cholesterol and diuresis.
Improve blood circulation: Camellia chrysantha is rich in tea pigment, which can reduce blood sugar, urine sugar, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin, reduce insulin resistance, improve hemorheology and relieve microcirculation disorders. Lowering cholesterol and triglycerides and increasing high density lipoprotein can prevent and treat diabetic complications, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and atherosclerosis.
Protect liver cells: Camellia contains selenium, which is a component of glutathione enzyme in human red blood cells. It has antioxidant, cell membrane protective and cardiovascular protective effects. Scientists in China also found that selenium is an effective drug to treat Keshan disease and Kaschin-Beck disease. In addition, selenium also has detoxification function, reducing the toxicity of yellow koji B 1, reducing the toxicity of some chemical carcinogens and reducing the damage of toxins to liver cells.
Anti-cancer effect: Camellia contains germanium, which can reduce the biological potential of cancer cells, change their physiological state, inhibit the value-added growth of cancer cells, and also induce interferon, an anti-cancer substance in the human body, which can induce macrophages to become anti-cancer cells, so some people use germanium to treat cancer. In addition, germanium has obvious therapeutic effects on angiosclerosis, cerebral thrombosis, cerebral hemorrhage, renal liver disease, gastropathy, diabetes, arthritis and chronic neuralgia.
Vision protection: The zinc content of camellia chrysantha is 283mg/kg, which is relatively high. Zinc is related to active enzymes in the human body, such as carboxypeptidase, an important enzyme that promotes the hydrolysis of protein in the intestine, which contains zinc. Zinc can increase appetite, promote growth and development, promote tissue regeneration, enhance sexual function, enhance immune function, enhance resistance and protect eyesight.
Weight loss: related to the metabolism of lipids and cholesterol. It can promote hematopoietic function and significantly reduce plasma cholesterol. The serum triglyceride and cholesterol content of V-deficient animals increased. The results showed that the serum total cholesterol β -lipoprotein in Camellia chrysantha group was significantly lower than that in the high-fat animal control group. Serum total cholesterol: Camellia chrysantha group decreased by 35% compared with high-fat group; Compared with the high-fat group, the atropine group decreased by 33.2%; β-lipoprotein: compared with the high fat in Camellia japonica group, it decreased by 36.6%; Compared with the high-fat group, the atropine group decreased by 23% (atropine is recognized as a cholesterol-lowering drug in the world).
Prevention of atherosclerosis: Manganese (Mn): High in content, it is an essential trace element for human body and participates in various enzymatic reactions. It can improve the lipid metabolism of patients with atherosclerosis. Prevent arteriosclerosis. The incidence of arteriosclerosis in American population is high, and the concentrations of Mn, Cr and Cu in aorta are less than those in Asian and African populations with low incidence of arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
Maintenance of the heart: Potassium (K): It can maintain the osmotic pressure in cells and the normal contraction of the heart.
Maintenance of body mechanism: Camellia is rich in vitamin B 1, which can effectively prevent the disorder of glucose metabolism and maintain the normal functions of nervous system, digestive system and heart. Vitamin B2 can participate in the redox reaction of human body and maintain the normal mechanism of retina. Camellia is rich in vitamin C, which can maintain the normal toughness and permeability of microvessels and restore the normal function of diabetic patients with fragile microvessels by drinking tea.
