Abstract:
Herbal combinations which reduce serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels comprise (1) herbs having substantial recognized activity in enhancing circulatory function (ECF herbs) and (2) herbs having substantial recognized effects in promoting bowel motility (PBM herbs). Preferred combinations have a combined total of at least 16% (dry weight basis) of at least two ECS herbs in combination with a combined total of at least 16% (dry weight basis) of at least two PBM herbs. Particularly preferred combinations are selected from the following herbs: Crataegus, Ho Shou Wu, Chrysanthemum, Lotus Leaf, Alisma and Hu-Zhang, Cassia Seed, and Rhubarb.
Abstract:
In a blood-lipid depressant for depressing a blood-lipid level, an effective component of the depressant is an extract extracted with an extracting solvent from a senna species (Cassia mimosoides L. var. nomame Makino). An effective component of the depressant is an extract obtained by fractionating via chromatographic methods an extract extracted with an extracting solvent from a senna species (Cassia mimosoides L. var. nomame Makino).

Abstract:
A stable formulation of Sennosides with increased shelf-life and good solubility comprising a granulate containing Senna extract concentrate and, for each part by weight of Senna extract concentrate, 1 to 3 parts of weight of sucrose.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for obtaining laxative compounds from senna drug, wherein(a) the senna drug is extracted with aqueous methanol by countercurrent percolation and the extract concentrated at a temperature of .ltoreq.50.degree. C. until the methanol has been completely removed from the extract;(b) the extract obtained is purified by continuous liquid-liquid extraction with an organic solvent;(c) the refined material (raffinate) obtained is transferred to a crystallization apparatus, acidified, while stirring, to a pH of 1.5 to 2.0, seeded with sennoside crystals, left to crystallize while stirring and the crystalline crude sennoside obtained separated off;(d) whereafter, the crude sennoside are, if desired, recrystallized and optionally converted with a pharmacologically compatible base into a pharmacologically compatible salt.
Abstract:
A process for the extraction of sennosides from senna folioles and follicles, comprising the rapid exhaustion of the plant by means of cold water, in a neutral or slightly alkaline medium, followed by acidification and extraction with butanol.This process minimizes oxidation and hydrolysis of the product and achieves improved yields and purity.
