Effects of Poria cocos

I believe that many people still don’t know what Fuling is. In fact, Fuling is a traditional Chinese medicine herb that is very effective in treating some symptoms. Its effects and efficacy are very high, and coix seed can also beautify and nourish the skin. Next, the editor will tell you about the seven major functions of Fuling.

Seven major effects of Fuling

Beneficial effect on urination

The coix seeds were soaked in 70% alcohol, the alcohol in the soaking liquid was evaporated, and mineral water was added to seal the solution until it reached a certain concentration. Then healthy rabbits were selected and injected according to their body weight. Long-term experimental data showed that the urine volume increased continuously after taking the medicine.

Dogs were given intravenous injections of coix seed decoction (0.048g/kg), but their urination was still not improved. It was also ineffective or had a weak effect on rats. Using urine output and chlorine excretion as observation indicators, rats (which had not been fed for 12 hours) were gavaged with coix seed decoction. The results showed that under the experimental standards here, coix seed could not specifically demonstrate its beneficial effect on urinary chlorine excretion.

Coix seed does not have an anti-deoxyepidermis ketone effect.

Antibacterial effect

The 100% decoction of coix seed has an inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Proteus, etc. using the flat plate punch method. The antibacterial test results of coix seed used in in vitro fertilization showed that it had no antibacterial effect. The ethanol extract of coix seed can kill Neisseria meningitidis outside the human body, but the water decoction is ineffective.

Effects on the digestive system

Coix seed has an immediate relaxing effect on the gastrointestinal tract of rabbits, has a preventive effect on ulcers caused by pyloric ligation in rats, and can reduce gastric acid. It also has a significant protective effect on CCl4-induced liver damage in rats, significantly reducing the specificity of alanine aminotransferase and preventing liver necrosis.

Anti-tumor effect

The main component of coix seed is Pachyman, which has a high content. Pachymaran itself has no anti-tumor specificity. However, if the carbon bond of β-(1 central 6) pyranose glucose contained in it is broken and converted into a simple β-(1 central 3) glucosan [called Pachymaran], the inhibition rate of S180 tumor in experimental mice can reach 96.88%.

The efficacy and function of white Poria

The effect of white tuckahoe sugar on immune function can improve the cytotoxic effect of macrophages. Abdominal injection of white tuckahoe sugar, hydroxyethyl white tuckahoe sugar-3, and hydroxyethyl white tuckahoe sugar-4 can significantly enhance the cytotoxic effect of retroperitoneal leaky germ cells (PEC) in experimental mice. White tuckahoe polysaccharide, hydroxyethyl white tuckahoe sugar-1, and hydroxyethyl white tuckahoe sugar-2 also have certain effects.

Effects on the blood system

It can accelerate the warming of rats with leukopenia induced by cyclophosphamide.

The coix seed water extract containing water-soluble small molecule water sugar can increase the 2,3-DPG level of normal human red blood cells in paraffin sections by about 25%, and can effectively alleviate the deficiency of 2,3-DPG during the entire incubation process. The overall 2,3-DPG level of experimental mice increased significantly after intravenous administration.

Subcutaneous tissue injection and oral administration of coix seed decoction can significantly increase the blood epidermal ketone of experimental mice.

Effects on the central nervous system

The decoction of coix seed was injected into the abdomen at a dose of 5-10g/kg, which had a sedative effect on experimental mice that had been given caffeine or not beforehand. Synergistic effect of coix seed and pentobarbital sodium. Coix seed decoction (10g/kg) cannot significantly increase the anesthesia time of sodium pentobarbital, but the dosage of 40g/kg significantly increases the anesthesia time compared with the control experiment. The sedation index also increases with the increase in dosage.
