Action:
Hepatoprotective action: The natural
ingredients in Liv.52 exhibit potent hepatoprotective properties
against chemically-induced hepatotoxicity. It restores the functional
efficiency of the liver by protecting the hepatic parenchyma and
promoting hepatocellular regeneration. The antiperoxidative activity of
Liv.52 prevents the loss of functional integrity of the cell membrane,
maintains cytochrome P-450 (a large and diverse group of enzymes,
which catalyze the oxidation of organic substances), hastens the
recovery period and ensures early restoration of hepatic functions in
infective hepatitis. It facilitates the rapid elimination of
acetaldehyde (produced by the oxidation of ethanol that is popularly
believed to cause hangovers) and ensures protection from
alcohol-induced hepatic damage. Liv.52 also diminishes the lipotropic
(compounds that help catalyze the breakdown of fat) effect in chronic
alcoholism and prevents fatty infiltration of the liver. In
pre-cirrhotic conditions, Liv.52 arrests the progress of cirrhosis and
prevents further liver damage.
Improves appetite: In anorexia and less than
optimal growth and weight gain, Liv.52 normalizes the basic
appetite-satiety rhythm. It also addresses loss of appetite during
pregnancy. As a daily health supplement, Liv.52 improves appetite,
digestion and assimilation processes and promotes weight gain.
Indications:
For the prevention and treatment of viral hepatitis,
alcoholic liver disease, pre-cirrhotic conditions and early cirrhosis,
anorexia, loss of appetite and liver damage due to radiation therapy
Liver disorders including fatty acid associated with protein-energy malnutrition
Jaundice and loss of appetite during pregnancy
As an adjuvant during prolonged illness and convalescence
As a adjuvant to hemodialysis
As an adjuvant to hepatotoxic drugs like anti-tubercular drugs, statins, chemotherapeutic agents and antiretrovirals
Key ingredients:
Ayurveda texts and modern research back the following facts:
The Caper Bush (Himsra) contains p-methoxy benzoic acid, which is a potent hepatoprotective. It
prevents the elevation of malondialdehyde (biomarker for oxidative
stress) levels in plasma and hepatic cells. Caper Bush also inhibits
the ALT and AST enzyme levels and improves the functional efficiency of
the liver and spleen. Flavonoids present in the Caper Bush exhibit
significant antioxidant properties, as well.
Chicory (Kasani) protects the
liver against alcohol toxicity. It is also a potent antioxidant, which
can be seen by its free radical scavenging property. The
hepatoprotective property of Chicory suppresses the oxidative
degradation of DNA in tissue debris.
