Amazonian ethnobotany and the search for new drugs.
Tropical rain forests offer enormous prospects for the discovery of new drugs for use in Western medicine. The Amazon supports 80,000 species of higher plants and a diverse Indian population. Focusing attention on those plants used as medicines by indigenous peoples is the most efficient way of identifying the plants that contain bioactive compounds. There is an urgent need for more ethnobotanists and ethnopharmacologists to be trained to document as much information as possible before it and the plants are lost through destruction of the rain forest and acculturation of the indigenous peoples

Plant-based nootropics are a diverse group of natural drugs that can improve cognitive abilities through various physiological mechanisms, especially in cases where these functions are weakened or impaired. In many cases, the nootropics enhance erythrocyte plasticity and inhibit aggregation, which improves the blood's rheological properties and increases its flow to the brain. Many of these formulations possess antioxidant activity that protects brain tissue from neurotoxicity and improves the brain's oxygen supply. They can induce the synthesis of neuronal proteins, nucleic acids, and phospho

Documenting and quantitatively assessing medicinal plants and indigenous knowledge in different social contexts is critical in providing nature-based solutions to contemporary issues. Therefore, our study quantitatively evaluated medicinal shrubs and herbs in forest-fringe communities of Ghana and tested the versatility, ecological apparency and sociodemographic traits and knowledge dynamics hypotheses. Structured questionnaires, interviews and field visits were used to conduct an ethnobotanical survey involving 78 respondents, selected based on random and snowball sampling techniques. The dat

INTRODUCTION: COMP-4 is a natural compound-based dietary supplement consisting of the combination of ginger, Paullinia cupana, muira puama and l-citrulline, which when given long-term has been shown in the aged rat to a) upregulate iNOS in the penile smooth muscle cells (SMC), b) reverse the corporal SMC apoptosis and fibrosis associated with corporal veno-occlusive dysfunction (CVOD), and c) improve resulting erectile function. To elucidate the mechanism of how COMP-4 and its individual components modulate the iNOS-cGMP pathway, an in vitro study was conducted using a rat corporal primary SMC
PubMed: 29551532Effect of Guarana (
The plant extract guarana is known for its caffeine content and other bioactive ingredients, which purportedly may improve cognitive performance. Recent reviews have examined the effects of chronic supplementation of guarana in clinical populations; however, the acute effects of guarana on cognitive tasks, while of interest, have produced mixed results. Whether acute guarana ingestion improves human cognitive performance was assessed by performing a systematic review coupled with a meta-analysis. Eight placebo-controlled studies were identified and met the inclusion criteria providing data on
PubMed: 36678305Seguridad y Precauciones
La seguridad del consumo de Paullinia yoco carece de validación clínica exhaustiva en humanos, lo que obliga a una postura de extrema cautela ante su uso. Debido a su composición rica en alcaloides y cafeína, su uso está estrictamente desaconsejado en mujeres embarazadas y en periodo de lactancia. La cafeína es capaz de atravesar la barrera placentaria, lo que conlleva el riesgo de inducir taquicardia fetal y posibles alteraciones en el desarrollo del sistema nervioso central del feto; en la lactancia, los compuestos pueden pasar a la leche materna, afectando el patrón de sueño y la estabilidad metabólica del lactante. En la población infantil menor de 12 años, la introducción de estos estimulantes es altamente riesgosa, ya que su sistema nervioso aún se encuentra en una fase crítica de maduración, lo que puede derivar en cuadros de irritabilidad extrema, insomnio severo y desequilibrios en la regulación del ritmo cardíaco. En cuanto a las interacciones medicamentosas, el yoco presenta peligros específicos: con la warfarina, los flavonoides y saponinas presentes podrían interferir con las cascadas de coagulación, aumentando el riesgo de hemorragias; con la metformina, los alcaloides estimulantes pueden actuar como antagonistas de la sensibilidad a la insulina, dificultando el control glucémico; y con los fármacos antihipertensivos, la cafeína ejerce un efecto farmacodinámico opuesto, elevando la presión arterial y la frecuencia cardíaca, lo que compromete la eficacia del tratamiento. No se ha determinado una dosis máxima segura para el consumo humano de esta planta.
