All About Artichoke Leaf Extract
The leaves of artichokes possess the properties of stimulating the elimination of bile and, in turn, aiding digestion. The artichoke leaf, a traditional medicinal herb, is therefore an alternative choice in facilitating the elimination of bile and helping digestion. According to German scientists, these long leaves contain high amounts of caffeylquinic acids, known as cynarin, which offer powerful nutritional support for the liver. Artichoke's health benefits have been recognized the world over. The French have long advocated artichoke juice for its use as a liver tonic, and scientists from Japan to Switzerland have noted the herb's abilities to break down fat and improve bile flow. Extracts of the leaves and root are said to be helpful in preventing arteriosclerosis. Artichoke has also been used for jaundice, dyspepsia, liver insufficiency, chronic albuminuria, and postoperative anemia. In some countries, the artichoke is considered an aphrodisiac.
