Effect
1. Respiratory health support - It is often used to relieve coughs. The saponins present in ivy leaf extract have an expectorant effect. They help to thin and loosen the mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up. This can be beneficial for people with bronchitis, who suffer from excessive mucus production and a persistent cough. - It also has a bronchodilatory effect. By relaxing the smooth muscles in the bronchi, it can improve airway patency and ease breathing difficulties. This is particularly useful for individuals with mild to moderate asthma or other obstructive airway diseases.
2. Anti - inflammatory properties - Ivy leaf extract can reduce inflammation in the respiratory tract. Inflammation is a common factor in many respiratory disorders such as laryngitis and tracheitis. The anti - inflammatory components of the extract can help to soothe the irritated tissues and reduce swelling, providing relief from pain and discomfort.
3. Antimicrobial activity - It shows some antimicrobial effects against certain bacteria and viruses that can infect the respiratory system. This can help to prevent the exacerbation of respiratory infections and support the body's natural defense mechanisms. For example, it may inhibit the growth of bacteria like Streptococcus pneumoniae, which is a common pathogen in cases of pneumonia and bronchitis.
