Golden buckwheat is the dried rhizome of Fagopyrum dibotrys, a plant of the Polygonaceae family. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, draining pus and removing blood stasis. Studies have shown that epicatechin and protocatechin are the main components of golden buckwheat for antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antitussive. The content of epicatechin in the ethanol extract of golden buckwheat accounts for 65% to 70%, and epicatechin has become an important index for the determination of golden buckwheat content. In addition, epicatechin also has a preventive effect on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, and can prevent tumors at the same time, and has antioxidant effect.1. As a flavonoid, epicatechin has many physiological activities, such as anti-oxidation, lowering blood sugar, preventing cardiovascular diseases, anti-inflammation, protecting nerves, and inhibiting bacteria.
2. When the concentration of free radicals in the body is too high, the risk of disease will increase. The antioxidant activity of epicatechin is considered to be the ability to capture chain-carrying free radicals by providing phenolic hydrogen atoms in the A ring and B ring, due to the presence of phenolic hydroxyl groups in the molecular structure of epicatechin, especially the phthalate The ortho hydroxyl group in phenol or pyrogallol is easily oxidized into an aldehyde structure, which makes it have a strong ability to capture free radicals such as active oxygen, so it has the function of efficiently scavenging free radicals and lipid free radicals.
3. The active substance of epicatechin has good antioxidant activity and can be used as a natural and efficient antioxidant
