Wolfberry beneficial to those with Hep C

[Guest guest]

What is Wolfberry?

Wolfberry species are deciduous woody perennial plants. It is the common name

for the fruit of two very closely related species: Lycium barbarum and L.

chinense. There has been rapid growing attention to wolfberries for their high

ranking nutrient value and antioxidant content, leading to a profusion of

consumer products.

Is wolfberry beneficial to those with Hepatitis?

Though none of this research has been confirmed in clinical studies done here in

the West, several published studies, mostly from China, have reported medicinal

benefits of Lycium barbarum to the liver and the immume system. These studies

can be found by their PMID # at the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the

National Institutes of Health website:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=PubMed The following is a list of

these published studies:

Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) can effectively prevent Alcoholic Fatty

Liver. This may be due to its effects in inhibiting the hepatocyte CYP2E1

expression and prevention of lipid peroxidation.

2007

PMID: 17407712

LBP significantly induced T cell proliferation. Our results suggest that

activation of T lymphocytes by LBP may contribute to one of its

immuno-enhancement functions

2008

PMID: 18755300
