The world's top ten liver protection raw materials ranking
2024 are coming to an end. The past year has been full of challenges for the global economy, and people around the world are also experiencing unprecedented tests. Neither units nor individuals can escape from it, so staying up late has become a norm. Whether it is high-ranking politicians, hard-working workers in life, or students in ivory towers, they are all integrating staying up late into their lifestyle habits.
However, a recent article published in the Lancet journal gives us an important reminder that up to 30% of adults in the world suffer from fatty liver, and there are countless other patients with liver abnormalities. The data of 2.4 billion is eye-catching, so it has triggered a wave of popularity in the liver protection and liver care market, and has gradually become one of the top five hot tracks in the world for dietary supplements. The Betzers market report pointed out that the global liver health supplement scale has reached US$10.5 billion in 2024, and is expected to expand to US$14.7 billion in 2032.
The following is a list of the top ten global hot raw materials for liver protection, so that everyone can produce hot products in the hot track.
Milk thistle is widely considered to be a plant that protects the liver and is known as the best liver protector in Europe and the United States. It contains ingredients such as silymarin, which can stabilize liver cell membranes, maintain the integrity of liver cells, prevent toxins from penetrating and damaging the liver, and accelerate the synthesis of liver cell DNA to prevent diseases such as cirrhosis and fatty liver.
Turmeric plays an important role in the Japanese liver protection and hangover relief market. Curcumin in turmeric has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It can reduce the liver inflammation caused by alcohol and protect liver cells from damage. At the same time, curcumin can also promote the liver's detoxification function.
Vine tea is a leader in Chinese medicine and food. It has a very significant effect in liver protection and hangover oil. Its core component, dihydromyricetin, naturally exists in more than 25% of the vine tea. It is simply a gift from nature. According to research, dihydromyricetin focuses on reducing alcohol damage to the liver, promoting acetaldehyde metabolism, relieving hangovers, and reducing liver cell damage.
Pueraria root is a classic liver protection medicine in traditional Chinese medicine. It contains ingredients such as puerarin, which can decompose alcohol and reduce its stimulation to the brain and stomach. It also promotes metabolism and accelerates the discharge of alcohol. Pueraria root can also improve the regeneration ability of liver cells and restore normal liver function.
Hovenia sinensis and vine tea have the same functional ingredients. The content of dihydromyricetin is lower than that of vine tea, but it is often combined with kudzu root in traditional Chinese medicine to protect the liver. Hovenia foliage can significantly reduce the concentration of ethanol in the blood, promote the clearance of ethanol, eliminate excess free radicals produced in the body after drinking, hinder the formation of lipid peroxides, thereby reducing alcohol damage to the liver.
- Artichoke
Artichoke is known as the "king of vegetables". It was eaten by the Romans and ancient Greeks more than 2,000 years ago. Regular consumption can treat chronic hepatitis, inhibit the oxidation of low-density cholesterol, reduce cholesterol, increase bile and reduce fat, detoxify the liver, prevent fatty liver, protect the liver, and repair damaged liver cells.
- Rice bran fatty alkanols
Rice bran fatty alkanols, this magical natural substance comes from rice bran. In terms of alcohol sobering up, rice bran fatty alkanols can accelerate alcohol metabolism and reduce the acetaldehyde content in the blood after drinking, thereby alleviating the feeling of drunkenness and hangover. This is due to its enhancement of the activity of alcohol sobering enzymes, which allows alcohol to be decomposed into harmless acetic acid more quickly, and finally converted into carbon dioxide and water to be excreted from the body.
- Sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS)
Sulforaphane glucosinolate is found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli. A Japanese study found that continuous intake of sulforaphane glucosinolate by middle-aged and elderly people can reduce liver damage caused by oxidative stress and help improve the level of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in the blood.
- N-acetylcysteine (NAC)
NAC stands for N-acetylcysteine, a special type of amino acid. The effect of NAC on the human body is almost the same as glutathione, but in terms of liver and kidney detoxification, NAC plays a more targeted role.
- Corn peptides
Corn peptides are small molecule polypeptides extracted from corn and have multiple biological activities. Corn peptides can promote the metabolism of alcohol, reduce the concentration of alcohol in the blood, and reduce the damage of alcohol to the liver. At the same time, corn peptides also have antioxidant, anti-fatigue, and blood pressure lowering effects, which are beneficial to health.
The above ten star liver protection ingredients are popular ingredients in major global markets. Some of them have been popular in the market for more than 10 years and are evergreen products in the liver protection market.
