Calendula is an effective
anti-inflammatory. Calendula is used in the treatment of crural
(leg) ulcers, skin inflammation, varicose veins, boils, acne,
and eczema. It is also used to treat rectal inflammation, dry
skin conditions and bee stings.
USES FOR CALENDULA
The calendula flowers contain
high concentrations of colorful orange xanthophylls, carotenoids
and other flavonoids that are powerful antioxidants. The flavonoid
extract has been shown scientifically to be effective against
inflammation, fever and to stimulate bile flow for aiding digestion
and cleansing the liver. The aqueous extract has also been shown
to have an uterotonic effect. Studies done of the flowers of
Egyptian Calendula officinalis L. conducted at the Kyoto Pharmaceutical
University, Japan, found hypoglycemic and stomach protective
properties for calendula flowers. The principal saponins inhibited
an increase in serum glucose levels in glucose-loaded rats and
prevented gastric lesions in rats.

ANTI-FUNGUS, AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES AND IS SUGGESTED

NEW USES FOR CALENDULA
A recent study has shown efficacy
for helping to heal surgical wounds after caesarian section.
Another recent study showed that a naturopathic preparation containing
calendula extract was effective in the management of ear pain
associated with acute otitis media.
The in vitro anti-HIV activity
of calendula extract was examined. Infected T cells were protected
up to 24 hours from fusion and subsequent death. Calendula extract
also caused a dose-dependent reduction of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase
activity. This has sparked an interest in the therapeutic use
of calendula in HIV infection.
