AN ACTIVE MIX

Zutrol consists of a very precise mix of different pure herbal ingredients with no addition of any other non active material. These herbal active components are:

A Swiss biogenetic company is using Ginseng with Gingko Biloba as ingredients to enhance cognitive factors in patients. It is also recognized as a potent antiseptic against Staphylococcus aureus.

RADIX SCROPHULARIA (Figwort), a potent root used in TCM as an anti-fewer agent and regulator of the urinerian tract, helping lymphatic circulation and restoring vital energy in kidneys.

In Western pharmacology, Radix Scrophularia has been identified as a strong and potent antioxidant due to its phenylpropanoid glycoside fast repairing agents.

In the Western pharmacology, research on Rhizoma Anemarrhena antidiabetic activity was investigated with success in curing and reducing genetic Type 2 Diabetes in mice. A water extract of the rhizome (90mg/Kg) reduced blood glucose levels substantially after oral administration and also tended to reduce serum insuline levels in mice. Based on these results, the antidiabetic mechanism may be due to the decrease of insuline resistance. The rhizome active components were confirmed to be mangiferin and its glocoside.

RADIX REHMANNIAE, the TCM medicine is using this plant to increase the kidney fluid and stimulate the Yin energy in the human liver.

The Western pharmacology tested the hemostatic in immunological properties of the plant and has been tested in aspirine treated mice successfully with a juice decoction of the plant in order to test hemorrhagenic troubles. It is also remarkable to inhibit tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1 secretion from mouse astrocytes proving that the plant has an anti-inflammatory activity in the central nervous system curing pathological diseases states. The ethanol precipitate fraction obtained from hot water extract of the rhizome of Rhemannia glutinosa is mainly composed of pectin like polysaccharide and exhibited hypoglycemic activity in mice. Administration of Rhemannia Glutinosa extracts increased significantly the activities of hepatic glucokinase and other elements to stimulate the secretion of insuline and reduce the glycogen content in the liver of a normal mouse.

FRUCTUS CORNI, (Asiatic Cornelian Cherry fruit), is used in the TCM as a potent pharmacopea to tonify the liver and kidney and reduce urine discharge by frequent micturation. It is always used as a component of a more elaborate medicine.

HERBA CISTENCHES, (Desertliving cistanche) used in TCM to reinforce the kidney tract and tonify the kidney and pancreatic fluid. Cistenche is always used in combination with other herbs as a reinforcing agent.

In Western pharmacology the active principle of Herba cistenches has been identified as a powerful acteoside (C29H36O15).

FRUCTUS HORDEI GERMINATUS, (germinated barley) is an agent promoting the digestion and regulating the stomacal functions. Germinated barley is used in conjunction with other active ingredients in order to improve the well being of the patient under treatment for a degenerating disease.

RHIZOMA DIOSCOREA, (commonYam rhizome), is a strong stimulator of the spleen and stomach secretions inducing a reinforcement of the kidney function. It is also used in order to fight anorexia and chronic diarrhea. Used in conjunction with Fructus Corni and Radix Astragali and Rhizoma Anemarrhenia, Rhizoma. Dioscorea is a powerful agent to treat Diabetes Mellitus by nourishing the pancreas and reactivate its function.

In Western medicine, dioscorea is presently researched for its properties to cure anorexia and dypsnea. The antidiabetes property of the rhizome is presently actively researched in Europe in order to identify the active chemical agent of the rhizome.
