第一：提高身体免疫力
通过临床研究发现，鱼腥草进入身体之后能够有效的增强WBC的吞噬能力，这对于血清的备解素合成具有很好的效果。并且科学家还在慢性支气管炎患者的身上进行了实验，发现服用了鱼腥草，可以有效的提高身体中的细胞吞噬能力，在家兔的身上进行的实验也证明了这个结论。所以说，鱼腥草能够有效的提高身体免疫力，并且对于各种感染性疾病的治疗也具有非常重要的意义。
第二：防辐射
通过调查发现，鱼腥草是目前发现的唯一一种能够在原子弹爆发点生长的中药材，这也就间接的说明与鱼腥草具有很强的抗辐射的能力，并且不会对身体造成毒副作用。所以说，一些经常需要使用电脑的人群或者是空勤人员这些经常接近辐射源的人群，适量的将鱼腥草泡水喝是非常有必要的，能够有效的促进身体健康。
第三：利尿
鱼腥草中所含有的一些物质，在进入身体之后能够有效的促进毛细血管的扩张，这样身体中的血液流量以及尿液的分泌都会增加，所以具有一定的利尿作用。会出现这种情况，很有可能就是由于鱼腥草中所含有的有机物所引起的，并且钾元素也具有很好的利尿作用，而鱼腥草中含有含量丰富的钾元素。

BENEFITS OF HOUTTUYNIA CORDATA
1. Diabetes Treatment
A comprehensive study by Kumar et al., (2014) on constant administration of ethanolic extract of Houttuynia cordata for a period of 3 weeks on diabetic rats showed a significant reduction of FPG level on these rats. Their finding suggests that Houttuynia cordata contains anti-diabetic properties thus can be a potential cure for diabetic patients. Interestingly, this plant is currently being experimented and examined in order to determine its pharmacological abilities in regulating blood sugar level in human beings. 2. Weight Management Studies reveal that Houttuynia cordata contains anti-obesity properties thus can be regularly eaten to shed excess weight. 3. Culinary purposes Houttuynia cordata serves as green vegetables for preparing and garnishing assorted meals such as salad and eromba etc. 4. Diuretic benefits Houttuynia cordata can be used for preparing traditional medicines that are used for treating diuresis. 5. Detoxification Ability Houttuynia cordata can be used for detoxifying the body systems due to its antibacterial and antiviral properties. 6. Pneumonia treatment Houttuynia cordata can be used for treating pneumonia, abnormal lung symptoms and SARS (Severe acute respiratory syndrome). 7. Treatment of infectious diseases It can be used for treating infectious diseases due to its anti-viral and antibacterial properties. 8. Herpes treatment Houttuynia cordata can be given to patients suffering from herpes virus since the plant contains properties that are capable of inhibiting pseudorabies herpes virus. 9. Antipoison Properties Houttuynia cordata is also known as a poison-blocking plant due to its ability to neutralize poisonous substances.
POTENTIATED PLU KOW Houttuynia Cordata Thunb
In the province of Chiang Mai, Thailand near one of the most Holy sites named Doi Suthep one may observe the Buddhist Monks harvesting Plu Kow for medicinal use. Traditionally, Chinese medicine uses Plu Kow to treat fever, inflammation and as a detoxfier. In Korea the leaves of Plu Kow is used to treat high blood pressure, cancer and arteriosclerosis. Thai medicine uses Plu Kow to treat dermatitis, Cancer, respiratory infections, dysentery, sexually transmitted diseases, hemorrhoids, measles, wounds and more.
The research on Plu Kow has until now been limited to countries in Asia like India, Thailand, China and Korea. Now that Plu Kow has been “discovered” by the western world, we hope that the research will continue of the medicinal effects of this amazing plant.
Of the 126 research reports designated to Plu Kow dating back to 1908, most of the research has taken place between 1983 until present day.
By the year of 2003, there have been more than 17 certifications and patents which include Plu Kow relating to antibodies and immune system.
Findings were related to basically 2 categories:
1Curing allergic reactions like asthma, food allergies, rheumatoid arthritis and atopic dermatitis.
2Treatment of immunodeficiency diseases
The most recent scientific findings beneficial effects such as:
1Plu Kow’s ability to help prevent cell replication by promoting DNA fragmentation ( Chain termination during DNA replication)2Plu Kow’s ability to contribute to boost our immune system enough to kill infected viruses, bacteria and cancer cells.
DNA Fragmentation
Cancer cells, Viruses and some bacteria have genes that suppress programmed cell death leading to unchecked replication. There are viruses like Herpes complex 1 that block apoptosis ( genetically programmed cell death). Successful viral replication involves evasion of host defenses and circumvention of the natural mechanisms that limit replication by killing infected cells.
The bodies emergency response to viral infections is for our immune system to target the replicatory viral DNA and induce an early cell death. Viruses have adapted by evolving survival promoting strategies to evade or delay early adoptosis. There are even some viruses that intentionally induce adoptosis in their late stages so that they may more easily spread to nearby cells. At this late stage in adoptosis, components of the cell become wrapped or encased in membrane bound adoptopic bodies that are then easily absorbed into the nearby cells and the virus “hitches” a ride. Cancer does the same basic process.
A Healthy cell has the natural ability to repair itself by removing the bad, deficient or damaged atoms and replace them with a new strand of Healthy atoms. All viruses ( HIV, many Cancers and some bacteria) have lost this DNA repair mechanism. Studies have found that Plu Kow may help halt the DNA Replication by turning on the DNA Fragmentation process, and not interfere or affect healthy cell replication.
The “American Journal of Chinese Medicine” reported that Plu Kow reduced viral RNA synthesis and virus induced caspase 3 activity. The studies indications were that Plu Kow affected adoptotic processes in EV71 by inhibiting viral replication (Vol 37, Issue 1, 2009 by Lin et.al). Essential oils in the Plu Kow plant have been found to effectively terminate the DNA chain during DNA replication. So, understand that the biological mechanism here is not aimed at destroying the target pathogen, but rather inhibiting its process of replication and not harming its host.
Autolysis
Autolysis is the process of self destruction or self digestion of the cell via the enzymes that exist within the cell. Autolysis is aided by lysosomal, an enzyme that aids in the digestion of cells and Lysosomal synthesis is increased by the essential oils found in Plu Kow!
Anti-Viral effects of Plu Kow
Western Chemical therapies stop viral infections by killing the host cellsHowever, Anti-viral therapies include substances that can be derived from plants. Evaporated oil from Plu Kow leaves has been shown to resist the influenza virus in nursing cells and has been shown to kill the herpes simplex 1 (HSV-1), influenza virus and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) without destroying the host cells.The “American Journal of Chinese Medicine” refers to scientific studies indicating that out of 22 tested medicinal herbs, only Plu Kow nuturalized (Enterovirus 71) activity and induced antiviral effects. (Vol 37, Issue 1, 2000, by Lin et al.)Houttuynia cordata is distinguished for its ability to invade the entire farmland and spread closely all over the ground. When this plant eventually invades a farmland, it usually proves difficult to destroy except when tackled with tough elimination methods. The plant is capable of growing approximately up to 80cm tall with the distal part protruding vertically. Houttuynia cordata is characterised by greenish-yellowish color leaves that often grows up to 10 cm long × 6 cm wide in shady places and moist areas. The leaves are alternated with heart-shaped appearance while the stem usually produces adventitious roots. The plant bears horizontal rhizomes, which connect the erect aerial stems with each other.
The cordate alternate leaves have a sheathing base, which is synonymous with certain species of Piper (Piperaceae). The inflorescences of Houttuynia cordata comprises of dense spikes of very tiny flowers without petals, with each of the inflorescence bearing four white bracts at the base. Below are some of the amazing benefits of Houttuynia cordata you ought to be aware oInjections of Plu Kow have been found to exert a direct inhibitory activity against various forms of herpes and that Plu Kow was one of the eight compounds selected to treat SARS in China.Daun Kirinyuh
