What are the effects of ginsenosides

Ginsenoside is a relatively common steroid compound and is also regarded as the most important active ingredient in ginseng. It has a very good conditioning and health-care effect on human health, especially in cancer prevention and treatment. It can enhance the body's immune ability and has the effect of activating the body's immune cells. In addition, it also plays a certain role in removing toxins from the body and promoting detoxification.

1. Induce apoptosis of cancer cells :

Cell apoptosis, like the blooming and withering of flowers, is an active physiological process. Under normal circumstances, cell proliferation and apoptosis always maintain a dynamic balance with increases and decreases, and this dynamic balance can maintain normal and stable cell proliferation. When certain factors cause uncontrolled cell proliferation and block cell apoptosis, it can lead to abnormal cell proliferation and cancer.

2. Enhance the body's immunity :

Dysregulation or deficiency of human immune function is one of the main causes of cancer. Chemotherapy drugs or radiation therapy used during cancer treatment can further destroy the body's immune function. Ginsenosides used alone can effectively regulate the human immune function. When used after surgery or during radiotherapy or chemotherapy, it can effectively protect immune organs and enhance immune function.

3. Improves Immunity :

Immunity is our body’s natural defense barrier. If the immune system is out of balance, the immune surveillance function will lose its function and cannot eliminate mutated cells, which is also one of the causes of tumors. Ginsenoside rh2 can regulate and enhance the body's immunity through various pathways and has a protective effect on the immune system.

4. Relieve the effects of toxins :

In the process of treating tumors, it is found that the failure of cancer chemotherapy is often related to the development of certain drug resistance to chemotherapy drugs. General chemotherapy drugs are not easy to enter cancer cells. The p-glycoprotein in cancer cells can excrete chemotherapy drugs, causing cancer cells to develop poor resistance to chemotherapy drugs. Ginseng saponins have both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties and can easily enter the nucleus of cancer cells to kill cancer cells.

5. Anti-fatigue effect :

Ginsenosides can prolong the weighted swimming time of mice, increase the glycogen reserves of mice or reduce the glycogen consumption of mice, reduce the serum urea content of mice after exercise, and inhibit the increase of blood lactate in mice after exercise, indicating that ginsenosides have a good effect in relieving physical strength and resisting fatigue.
