About Lotus leaf Extract
In Chinese medicine, the lotus leaf is classified as a bitter herb.
According to traditional practitioners,bitter herbs trigger the
production of bile and hydrochloric acid, which stimulate digestion
and ease flatulence. Bile secretion assists in the breakdown of
fats, and serves as a liver tonic. As an astringent, lotus leaf has
the ability to stop bleeding, such as hematuria (blood in urine),
hematemesis (blood in vomit) and excessive menstrual bleeding.
Scientific research has revealed that lotus leaf contains
alkaloids, flavonoids and tannins. The isoquinoline alkaloids in
the leaf have sedative and antispasmodic properties.
