To explore whether auricular acupressure could improve the absorption of flavanones in the extracts from Citrus aurantium L. in the human body.
Ten (10) healthy male volunteers were randomly divided into two groups. Group A was treated with the combination of oral administration of C. aurantium L. extracts and auricular acupressure. Group B was treated only with the oral administration of C. aurantium L. extracts in the same dosage as Group A. After 7 days of treatment, the plasma concentration of naringenin and hesperetin of the two groups were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography.
The plasma concentration of naringenin and hesperetin in Group A were significantly higher than Group B.
Auricular acupressure at some specific acupoints can significantly improve the absorption of naringenin and hesperetin in the extracts form C. aurantium L. in the human body.
探讨耳穴按压是否能促进人体对枳实提取物中黄酮类化合物的吸收。
将10名健康男性志愿者随机分为两组。A组采用口服枳实提取物并结合耳穴按压的治疗方法。B组仅口服与A组相同剂量的枳实提取物。治疗7天后,采用高效液相色谱法测定两组柚皮苷和橙皮苷的血浆浓度。
A组柚皮苷和橙皮苷的血浆浓度显著高于B组。
在人体中,对某些特定穴位进行耳穴按压可显著促进枳实提取物中柚皮苷和橙皮苷的吸收。
