Research benefits<\/strong><\/h2>
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>

A comparative study of massage with Kraduk Kai Dam oil and Zingiber oil was conducted on people experiencing neck, shoulder, and back pain, or office syndrome. Zingiber oil is known to relieve pain. The results showed that \"massage with Kraduk Kai Dam oil was as effective in relieving pain as massage with Zingiber oil.\" Therefore, Kraduk Kai Dam oil can be used as a substitute for Zingiber oil.<\/p>

1. Anti-inflammatory<\/h2>

Experiments in mice with swollen paws treated with apigenin from Kraduk Kai Dam showed that it could inhibit swelling by 89% at a dose of 10 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. <\/p><\/blockquote>

Furthermore, experiments with simulated human white blood cells showed that Apigenin can reduce several inflammatory mediators and increase levels of anti-inflammatory substances.<\/p><\/blockquote>

2. 2. Antioxidant activity<\/strong><\/h2>

What is oxidation?<\/h2>

oxidation <\/strong>is a chemical process in which a substance loses electrons or reacts with oxygen, resulting in changes to its structure and properties. This process is commonly seen in sources such as pollution, factory smoke, barbecue smoke, dust, rust, and wood burning.<\/p>

\"\"
Consuming burnt food, being exposed to grilling smoke, and inhaling industrial pollution or fine particulate matter like PM 2.5 can all lead to potential future health hazards. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div><\/div>

What is oxidation in the human body?<\/h2>

Oxidation occurs constantly in our bodies, such as in the creation of energy at the cellular level. Excessive oxidation leads to oxidative stress<\/strong> causing cell damage, accelerating bodily deterioration, and is associated with various chronic diseases such as chronic inflammation, heart disease, cancer, and neurological disorders.<\/p>\n\n

In vitro research has shown that the leaves of the Kraduk Kai Dam contain the highest amount of total phenolic compounds and total flavonoids (antioxidants) compared to other extracts from the same plant leaves.<\/p>\n\n

In in vivo animal studies, ethanol extracts from Kraduk Kai Dam leaves at doses of 250 and 500 mg\/kg body weight were found to increase the levels of antioxidant enzymes, namely catalase and glutathione, and decrease the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). Higher TBARS levels indicate greater cell damage from free radicals.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n

Therefore, the ethanol extract fromKraduk Kai Dam leaves exhibits antioxidant activity both in vitro and in vivo.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>

3. Relieves muscle and joint pain.<\/h2>

A study compared Kraduk Kai Dam spray and diclofenac spray, dividing people into two groups with mild to moderate pain. The first group used Kraduk Kai Dam spray (48 people), and the second group used diclofenac spray (47 people). The results showed no significant difference in pain levels between the two groups. Following treatment, both groups also took similar amounts of paracetamol.<\/p><\/blockquote>

In conclusion, Kraduk Kai Dam spray is comparable in efficacy to diclofenac spray with low to moderate severity.<\/p><\/blockquote>
