Gynostemma pentaphyllum has the function of lowering blood lipid. Professor Liang Donghui from zhujiang hospital Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Southern Medical University said that Gynostemma pentaphyllum has a "powerful" blood lipid lowering function. It contains a variety of ginsenoside and gypenosides, and has the effects of significantly reducing serum cholesterol, triacylglycerol and low-density lipoprotein, and increasing anti-atherosclerosis high-density lipoprotein. In other words, it can reduce "bad blood lipids" and increase "good blood lipids".
Professor Liang Donghui said that Gynostemma pentaphyllum not only has the function of lowering blood fat, but in the eyes of Chinese medicine, its function is even close to that of expensive ginseng.
Gynostemma pentaphyllum has its own "one skill" in enhancing immunity: it has a significant antagonistic effect on immunosuppression caused by immunosuppressant cyclophosphamide and glucocorticoid dexamethasone, and has a two-way immunomodulatory effect similar to that of traditional Chinese medicines such as Astragalus and Ginseng. Gynostemma pentaphyllum contains many trace elements, 7 kinds of amino acids and more than 70 kinds of saponins, among which 4 kinds of saponins belong to the same substance as those in ginseng, but the content of total saponins is higher than that in ginseng.
Professor Liang Donghui suggested that it is feasible to control blood lipid with Gynostemma pentaphyllum tea. However, it should not be used as a hypolipidemic drug instead of drugs, and the dosage should be controlled when drinking to prevent poisoning.
