Karczoch provides in concentrated form the abundance of vitamins, phytochemicals and minerals contained in artichoke leaves!
The liquid dietary supplement Karczoch is made from the leaves of the artichoke plant ( Cynara scolymus L), which has been known for thousands of years in the countries around the Mediterranean as a food and medicine. It was also described by the famous ancient physician and pharmacist Dioscurides, who included it in his pharmacopoeia De Materia Medica . People considered it not only a delicacy, but also a powerful aphrodisiac and believed that its consumption would provide them with a male heir.
It may come as a surprise to many, but the artichoke is among the plants with the highest antioxidant content on the planet. This, along with the abundance of vitamins and minerals in its composition, explains its numerous and diverse health effects. Although its fleshy middle part is most highly valued on the table, the bulk of the beneficial substances are concentrated in the leaves of the plant.
Among the phytochemicals that give artichoke an impressive ORAC index (an indicator of the ability to absorb free radicals), the compounds quercetin, rutin, gallic acid and cynarin stand out. All of them limit oxidative damage to cells, thus preventing pathological changes and reducing the risk of serious chronic diseases.
Artichoke leaves are a rich source of silymarin, a phytochemical most commonly associated with milk thistle. Together with cynarin, it promotes liver cell regeneration, stimulates bile production, optimizes bile function, and improves liver protection from toxins, environmental pollutants, and carcinogens.
Increased bile secretion not only helps detoxify the body, but also aids in digestion. Mixed with gastric juices, it facilitates the breakdown and absorption of food. Artichoke also contains the prebiotic inulin, which improves the balance of intestinal microflora and protects the gastrointestinal tract from harmful pathogens. It is also a good source of vitamin B1 (thiamine), necessary for maintaining healthy levels of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. The prebiotic fibers in the plant also improve intestinal transit, which, together with optimized digestion, helps maintain healthy weight.
There are several ways in which artichoke contributes to maintaining the condition and function of the cardiovascular system. It is a good source of potassium, a mineral that helps normalize blood pressure and neutralize excess sodium in the body. Cynarin, in turn, contributes to lowering levels of total and bad (LDL) cholesterol, as well as triglycerides, thereby reducing the risk of cardiac problems.
The fiber in artichoke leaves slows down the absorption of glucose, preventing the sudden changes in insulin levels that cause serious problems for diabetics. The improved blood sugar control combined with the positive effect on cardiovascular health and weight regulation also contribute to a reduced risk of metabolic syndrome.
