Multiple Benefits of Pure Centella Asiatica Extract

So far, the active ingredients of pure centella asiatica extract mainly include triterpenoids (such as asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid), flavonoids, polyacetylenes, etc. These active ingredients have a variety of health benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, wound healing, and cognitive and memory enhancement.

1. Neuroprotection: Related literature shows that the triterpenes in Centella asiatica can inhibit the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway and reduce the expression of c-Jun amino-terminal kinase-p53-Bax 3 (JNK3), thereby protecting dopaminergic neurons and improving a variety of neurological diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.

2. Weight loss: Studies have shown that Centella asiatica has the effects of inhibiting weight gain, enhancing leptin and insulin sensitivity, repairing oxidative stress damage caused by obesity, and inhibiting weight gain by promoting fatty acid oxidation. Therefore, it has the potential to be used as a weight loss drug.

3. Improve cardiovascular health: Asiaticoside and Asiatic acid have a positive effect on cardiovascular disease. Asiaticoside can reduce endothelial permeability and effectively prevent the occurrence of atherosclerosis by reducing the levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 and E-selectin.

4. Promote wound healing: In the transdermal absorption experiment of rats, hydroxy-madecassic acid can quickly penetrate the skin barrier, promote the wound repair process by affecting fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis, and also has antibacterial effects. Compared with untreated rats, the hydrogel preparation rich in asiaticoside accelerated the wound healing process by 40% without any skin irritation.
