Dihydromyricetin (DHM) is a flavonoid compound found in the fruits of the Japanese raisin tree (Hovenia dulcis). It has gained attention in recent years for its potential health benefits. Some of the functions and applications of dihydromyricetin include:
Hangover prevention: DHM has been studied for its ability to alleviate the symptoms of alcohol hangover. It works by accelerating the metabolism of alcohol and by inhibiting the alcohol-induced release of inflammatory substances in the brain. This can help reduce hangover symptoms such as headache, nausea, and fatigue.
Liver protection: DHM has shown hepatoprotective properties, meaning it can protect the liver from damage. It has been used traditionally in Chinese medicine to treat liver ailments such as hepatitis. DHM helps by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid accumulation in the liver.
Antioxidant activity: Dihydromyricetin is a potent antioxidant that helps to neutralize free radicals in the body. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can cause cellular damage and contribute to various diseases. By reducing free radical damage, DHM may have protective effects on overall health.
Anti-inflammatory effects: DHM has been found to possess anti-inflammatory properties. Chronic inflammation is linked to several health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis. By reducing inflammation in the body, DHM may help to mitigate the risk or severity of these conditions.
Anti-cancer potential: Some studies have suggested that DHM may have anti-cancer effects. It has been shown to inhibit the growth and spread of cancer cells in laboratory studies. However, more research is needed to fully understand its potential in cancer prevention and treatment.
