standardization136 subjects, RDB,PC + low fat
diet advice no changes in total cholesterol, TGs,
LDL or HDL chol after 12-week treatment; no
changes in plasma glucose, liver, renal function.
Satitvipawee P et al., J Med Assoc Thailand 2003; 86:750-7
3.1 Garlic: comments
• Other clinical trials, but not 5 recent ones,
show reduced TC
• Some effect in mild hypertension but more
work needed; cancer inhibition (epi,
lab),vascular resistance
• Anticoagulant effect, though
not validated in trial with
warfarin – caution with pre-
surgery, warfarin use.
3.2 Ginkgo
• Memory and mood, post-menopausal women
• 31 women, RDB, PC trial with ginkgo, 7 days
• Significant differences in non-verbal memory,
auditory serial addition test; not in paragraph
recall, picture recall, planning, mood,
menopause, sleepiness
• Modest effects
Hartley et al., Pharmacol Biochem
Behav 2003; 75(3):711-20
Ginkgo: comments
• Standardized on ginkgolides, flavonoids;
relax endothelium, inhibit nitric oxide
formation (neuroprotective), antioxidant,
anticoagulant
• 120 trials. Cochrane Review – positive
evidence for dementia; Alzheimer’s –
positive effect (mild); cognitive/memory in
older persons – short-term; long-term?
Tinnitus, intermittent claudication.
• Possible interactions with anticoagulants,
MAO inhibitors. Pre-surgery concern.
3.3 Ginseng
• Lung function and exercise capacity in COPD
• 92 adults, 3 m dosing, RDB PC of pulmonary
function tests,exercise tests
• Experimental group had
significant improvements
in variety of pulmonary function
tests relative to control
Gross, Monaldi Arch Ches Dis 2002; 57(5-6):242-6
Ginseng: comments
• Controversial herb used to improve energy,
endurance, sexual performance in Asia; elderly or ill
populations. Many other effects, incl. anticancer,
hypoglycemic, overstimulation.
• Mechanisms of action difficult to elucidate, clinical
trials have been of generally poor design and in
questionable populations.
• Species designation: Asian ginseng, American
ginseng, unrelated species called ginsengs.
• Quality control has been questionable; standardized
preparations generally contain believable
concentrations of ginsenosides
3.4 Pueraria Root
(Radix Puerariae)
• Effects:
Dispelling pathogenic
factors from the
superficial muscles to
allay fever, promoting
the production of body
fluid to quench thirst,
promoting the eruption
of measles and
invigorating the spleen-
yang to stop diarrhea.
3.5 Soybean
• Soy isoflavones may
prevent diseases
associated with post-
menopausal women
such as osteoporosis
and coronary heart
disease. A peptide found
in soy flour is a potential
anti-carcinogen.
