Hempedu Bumi (Andrographis paniculata)
The Malay name of this herb, Hempedu Bumi, translates as "bile of the earth" and indeed this herb has been shown to have a strong liver protecting and bile enhancing effect. In comparative clinical studies it has been shown to be superior to Milk Thistle. The active constituent, andrographolide protects the liver, pancreas and digestive system. Laboratory and clinical trials have demonstrated its effectiveness in cases of toxic liver damage, poor liver function and hepatitis. Andrographis is also shown to prevent the build up of oxidized cholesterol in the arteries to a degree that was more substantial than omega 3 fish oils. It is particularly suited to those on a high cholesterol diet. Andrographolide also protects the insulin producing cells of the pancreas and improves glucose metabolism and diabetic retinopathy.
Traditionally the herb is also used for high blood pressure and modern research has also confirmed its gentle and safe hypotensive effects. The most recent research on this herb is focusing on its immune enhancing and anti-viral properties, even against several strains of the HIV virus. In China it is the herb of choice for sore throats, colds and flu. In India controlled double blind clinical studies found that Hempedu Bumi has a preventative effect against the common cold. Recent studies have also focused on the ability of Andrographis to protect from gastric and duodenal ulcers.
