Here are more peony benefits :
1. Anti-oxidant activities : Ethanol extract of the peony root (Paeonia Lactiflora Pall, Paeoniaceae)and its ingredients-gallic acid and methyl gallate showed protective effects against free radical generation, i.e. free radical scavenging effect against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazine, and lipid peroxidation.
2. Cholesterol-lowering : Paeoniflorin, isolated from the methanol extract of peony (Paeonia lactiflora), showed a lowering effect on cholesterol level in the experimentally-induced hyperlipidemic rats. Paeoniflorin showed a significantly lowering effect of total cholesterol, LDL and triglyceride levels compared with the control group at the dose of 200 and 400 mg/kg, p.o. once a day for 4 weeks.
3. Immunological Modulation : Researchers from Kyoritsu College of Pharmacy,Japan, demonstrated the anti-complementary activities of an acidic polysaccharide isolated from the root of peony (Paeonia lactiflora PALLAS) – peonan PA. Peonan PA is composed of L-arabinose: D-galactose: D-galacturonic acid in the molar ratio of 2:1:10
4. Promote Liver Health : In a rat study, a combined treatment of Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) and Paeonia lactiflora (PL) showed protective benefits to D-galactosamine-induced liver damage.
