The ayurvedic herb () is a gift to mankind to acquire a healthy lifestyle. It has great therapeutic and nutritional importance. , also known as Indian gooseberry or Amla, is a member of the Euphorbiaceae family. Amla is beneficial for treating illnesses in all its forms. The most crucial component is a fruit, which is also the most common. It is used frequently in Indian medicine as a restorative, diuretic, liver tonic, refrigerant, stomachic, laxative, antipyretic, hair tonic, ulcer preventive, and for the common cold and fever. Hyperlipidemia is also known as high cholesterol or an increase in one or more lipid-containing blood proteins. Various phytocompounds, including polyphenols, vitamins, amino acids, fixed oils, and flavonoids, are present in the various parts of . has been linked to a variety of pharmacological effects in earlier studies, including hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, antimicrobial, radioprotective, and hyperlipidemic effects. The amla-derived active ingredients and food products nevertheless encounter challenges such as instability and interactions with other food matrices. Considering the issue from this perspective, food component nanoencapsulation is a young and cutting-edge field for controlled and targeted delivery with a range of preventative activities. The nanoformulation of facilitates the release of active components or food ingredients, increased bioaccessibility, enhanced therapeutic activities, and digestion in the human body. Accordingly, the current review provides a summary of the phytoconstituents of , pharmacological actions detailing the plant 's traditional uses, and especially hyperlipidemic activity. Correspondingly, the article describes the uses of nanotechnology in amla therapeutics and functional ingredients.
阿育吠陀草药()是人类获得健康生活方式的一份礼物。它具有重大的治疗和营养意义。,也被称为印度醋栗或余甘子,是大戟科家族的一员。余甘子对治疗各种疾病都有益处。其最关键的部分是果实,也是最常见的部分。它在印度医学中经常被用作恢复剂、利尿剂、肝脏滋补剂、清凉剂、健胃剂、泻药、退烧药、头发滋补剂、溃疡预防剂,以及用于治疗普通感冒和发烧。高脂血症也被称为高胆固醇或一种或多种含脂质血液蛋白的增加。余甘子的各个部分含有多种植物化合物,包括多酚、维生素、氨基酸、固定油和类黄酮。在早期研究中,余甘子已被证明与多种药理作用有关,包括肝脏保护、免疫调节、抗菌、辐射防护和降血脂作用。然而,源自余甘子的活性成分和食品仍面临诸如稳定性以及与其他食物基质相互作用等挑战。从这个角度考虑这个问题,食品成分纳米封装是一个新兴的前沿领域,用于可控和靶向递送,并具有一系列预防活性。余甘子的纳米制剂有助于活性成分或食品成分的释放、提高生物可及性、增强治疗活性以及在人体中的消化。因此,本综述总结了余甘子的植物成分、详细阐述该植物传统用途的药理作用,尤其是降血脂活性。相应地,本文描述了纳米技术在余甘子治疗和功能成分中的应用。
