Abstract

Plants are an important source of traditional medicines that can be used to improve health. Cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) has long been recognized to have many benefits. Cinnamon was used traditionally as a remedy for arthritis, diarrhea, allergies, and ulcers. This literature review aimed to identify the bioactive compounds and bioactivity of cinnamon. Literature searches used PubMed and Google Scholar. A total of 55 full-text articles met the inclusion criteria of the review. The extract or essential oil of cinnamon contains many bioactive compounds, such as eugenol, cinnamic acid, linalool, β-caryophyllene, coumarin, and trans cinnamyl acetate, and 1.8 cineole. These compounds have several bioactivities including anti-cancer, anti-arrhythmia, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-cholinesterase, and anti-lipid oxidation. Cinnamon extract has excellent potential as an antioxidant and antidiabetic agent. Its potential and unique taste have contributed to its wide use in herbal remedies.

Abstract

Tinospora crispa, Andrographis paniculata, Cinamomum burmanii, Syzygium polyanthum and Momordica charantia contain phenolics and flavonoids which are rich in benefits. Phenolic compounds are compounds that have an aromatic ring with one or more hydroxy groups, compounds derived from plants that have the same characteristics, namely aromatic rings containing one or more hydroxyl groups. Herbal plants, which are rich in phenolic compounds, have the efficacy, among others, as antioxidants, anti- inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-fungal and prevents tumor growth. The acute toxicity test is a procedure designed to determine the median lethal dose of a substance and its possible mechanism of action and target organs. In simple terms, toxicity can be defined as the ability of a compound that can cause harmful effects or deviate from the biological mechanism in an organism.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition that disturbs the body's blood sugar regulation. This disorder is characterized by a decrease in the ability of body cells to intake glucose into cells. Due to the failure of cells in glucose intake, glucose buildup occurs in the extracellular, namely in the plasma. These medicinal plants contain quite varied secondary metabolites, and these plants are rich in flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenes, and glycosides. The content of these secondary metabolite compounds is believed to be rich in antioxidant effects so that it has the effect of being able to suppress various oxidative stress conditions that cause damage to various organs due to blood sugar dysregulation. The effect of Tinospora crispa, Andrographis paniculata, Cinnamomum burmanii, Syzygium polyanthum and Momordica charantia extract on blood sugar levels and GLUT4 protein expression in muscle tissue shows the potential of the test extract's ability to improve blood glucose intake to cells so as to maintain blood sugar regulation.

Based on the results of the paired t-test statistical test, it was found that the average plaque index before chewing an apple was 0.63 ± 0.42 after 0.26 ± 0.26 with a mean of 0.37 ± 0.16. Meanwhile, the plaque index before chewing on Fuji apples was 1.01 ± 0.59 after 0.87 ± 0.54 with a mean of 0.14 ± 0.05. The results of the independent statistical t-test showed that the value of p = 0.001, which means that there is a difference in chewing Manalagi apples with Fuji apples to decrease the plaque index.

Abstract

Depression is a feeling of loss of interest or pleasure, sadness, feelings of guilt or inferiority, disturbances in sleep or appetite, feelings of tiredness, and poor concentration and the desire to end life. In Indonesia, according to the Indonesian Ministry of Health in 2018, the prevalence of depressive disorders in Indonesia is 6.1%. Based on the 2013 Riskesdas report, the prevalence of suicide in Indonesia is mostly carried out by women, which is around 0.8% compared to men, which has a prevalence of 0.6%. Until now, the first line of depression therapy is the Serotonin Re-Uptake Inhibitor (SSRI) group. Although this drug is effective in improving symptoms of depression, this drug can cause several side effects such as insomnia or drowsiness, weight gain, and sexual dysfunction. Therefore, we need an alternative medicine that can replace conventional medicine which has less side effects. Cinnamon is one of the many plants found in Indonesia which is believed to have the potential to overcome various diseases. Based on previous research, there are many active components contained in cinnamon that have anti-depressant effects. Active components such as Phenol, Cinnamaldehyde, Turmerone, Proanthocyanidin and Linalool as well as Eugenol can provide anti-depressant effects through anti-inflammatory prevention.
