Bush Tea
Lippia alba
Lippia alba，也称为白香蜂草或白柠檬香蜂草，是一种传统上在中美洲和南美洲发现的植物。尽管其在传统医学中的使用尚未广泛记录，但研究表明其提取物和精油具有潜在价值。科学证据表明，Lippia alba 可能具有抗病毒特性，特别是对抗登革热病毒，但需要进一步研究来证实这些结果。该植物还显示出抗菌、抗氧化、镇静和心血管相关活性，如各种植物化学研究中所报告的那样。在鸡身上，精油补充剂对与抗病毒途径相关的基因表达产生了适度影响，并降低了病毒载量而抗体滴度没有一致变化。此外，在雨季收集的Lippia alba 精油显示出略高的抗氧化活性和选择性抑制增殖作用，而干季收集的则不然。对于这种植物尚未记录任何主要的安全问题或已知药物相互作用，但建议进一步研究以全面了解其潜在益处和风险。

科学怎么说
- 该研究回顾了白杨属和欧薄荷属的植物化学成分及其报告的生物活性，突出了它们的抗菌、抗氧化、抗焦虑和心血管相关的作用。
- 补充巴西青蒿精油轻度影响了与抗病毒途径相关的基因表达，并降低了鸡的病毒载量，但抗体滴度没有一致的变化。
- The study found that UAE extracts of Lippia alba containing higher levels of flavone glycosides showed antiviral effects against the dengue virus.
- 研究发现，雨季采集的唇形科白花油具有略高的抗氧化活性和选择性抗增殖作用，而旱季采集的则不然。
