Apigenin Compound in Jobelyn Bioavailable in Animal Studies

Abstract:

 

This study was conducted to determine if apigenin is bioavailable in rats after single oral administrations of JOBELYN®.

Plasma samples were collected at selected time points up to 24 hr post-dose.  Concentrations of apigenin compound in plasma were determined by a LC/MS/MS method.  The plasma concentration of apigenin reached the maximum at 2 hr with mean values of 19.5 and 23.0 ng/mL for male and female rats, respectively, indicating that apigenin was bioavailable after oral administration.

About Jobelyn

Jobelyn

A Herbal Powerful Nutritional Supplement : In Continuous and Widespread Use Since the ancient Egyptians

 Jobelyn’s primary active ingredient is a concentrated extract drawn from the leaves of the Sorghum bicolor plant, first cultivated in Egypt in 3000 B.C. and is one of the most important cereal crops grown in the world today. An Antioxidant Goldmine, and much, Much More:
- This once primitive herbal formula, now standardized (click for evidence) and marketed under the name Jobelyn, Stimulates the rapid production of red blood cells (hematinic) (see studies report). It’s also a powerful antioxidant.
- Plus, Jobelyn is brimming with proteins, minerals, carbohydrates and soluble fiber. (see lab report)
 

 Jobelyn is one of the most powerful antioxidant and nutritional dietary supplements available!
- Jobelyn contains a class of compounds that act like super oxide dismutase (SOD), which is a powerful enzyme and cellular antioxidant. It acts as a super scavenger of superoxide anions by ferreting out and destroying them throughout the body. The human body is often lacking SOD, thus the burden of defense often relies on intake of exogenous dietary antioxidants.
- Jobelyn was found to contain significant levels of antioxidant activities against peroxyl radicals, peroxylnitrite, hydroxyl radicals (known as NORAC and HORAC). Just like the superoxide anions, these human-cell killing species are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of aging and neurodegenerative diseases  ( see laboratory evidences ). Preliminary studies on Jobelyn showed that it has anti-inflammatory properties as demonstrated through cox-1 and cox-2 assays  ( see laboratory evidences ) Animal studies have shown that Jobelyn is a safe product for human use ( see toxicology report ) An abstract paper presented at the CIMM2004 in Washington DC also illustrated the beneficial effect for People Living with HIV (see abstract)

 Jobelyn is certified by Brunswick Laboratories as being rich in Proanthocyanidins, ORAC,  Phenolic Compounds and Anthocyanins, Click to see Brunswick Certification

FROM THE DESK OF MR. FEMI KUSA

Mr. Femi Kusa
JOBELYN has been well researched at the College of Medicine of the University of Lagos, at the University of Benin, the Military Hospital in Ikoyi, Lagos, and by leading laboratories in Germany and the United States. Originally presented as a remedy for all cases of anemia, especially in sickle sell crisis, Jobelyn has found increasing clinical uses in arthritis, hypertension, stroke, HIV/AIDS and diabetes therapies, to mention a few disease conditions that this product may help. Nigerian laboratory experiments replicated abroad show that Jobelyn raises blood haematocrit by as high as 14 per cent within 24 hours, making it the fastest blood replenisher in the world. So fast does it work that it has been described in some medical circles as a possible alternative to blood transfusion! A presentation made to a world conference of military hospitals held in Betheseda, United States, in 2004 by the Nigerian Military Hospital in Ikoyi, Lagos, of its research findings suggests that Jobelyn helps people living with HIV/AIDS better than the protocols of orthodox medicine.

Currently, Jobelyn is now well rated in the United States as a high anti-oxidant herbal product. If we recall that free radicals are implicated in about 500 disease conditions and that anti-oxidants prevent or reverse them, Jobelyn must, indeed, be an indispensable herbal remedy for the family herbal medicine chest. In my experience of counseling people who are often stressed up, tired or fatigued, such as women after the monthly cycle, commercial motorcyclists or other physically and mentally active people, I have found that the problem, often, is with the quality of the blood, that many people have poorly composed blood and low blood counts without realizing it, and that one capsule of Jobelyn every day or every other day makes a lot of difference to their energy level, work capacity, productivity and even reproductive and social lives.

How I discovered African Herbal Medicine

Image
Otunba Olajuwon Okubena
I was born in the middle of the second world war when my country, Nigeria, was under the colonial rule of Great Britain. My grandfather died in 1946 when I was 4 years old, but I could still recollect the occasions when grand dad used to come home with some herbs in his  native raffia hand bag. I was later to understand that the herbs were for malaria fever and it was later found to be growing in the bushes around our house. By the time I was 5 years old, I had already started schooling in my native village, Ilese, Ogun State of Nigeria. At this time, orthodox medical establishments have started flourishing in the western part of Nigeria. I was aware that there was a General Hospital at Ijebu-Ode which was then the divisional headquarters in my area. In spite of the available facility, my late father, Mr. Richard Ayodele Okubena still continued to treat us with the malaria herbal medicine which he inherited from my grandfather. By the time I was 7 years old, I was able to identify this herb at the bush behind our house. The herbs were normally boiled with water for the extraction of the juice and it was indeed very bitter that we were always compelled with the cane to drink a big cup of the herb anytime there was an attack of malaria. Usually, the attack of malaria was accompanied with rigour and severe joint pains all over the body but this remedy which was usually cooked in the early evening and taken early in the night, was diuretic. Victims of malaria after this treatment would usually urinate four to six times during the night and by morning all signs and symptoms of the disease would have disappeared by the following morning.

As I grew older, I became aware that there were more herbs than the traditional malaria herb known to my family. In my village, there were traditional herbal healers and traditional birth attendants. I remember very vividly that all my brothers and sisters, born between 1942 and 1955 were all born at home with the assistance of a traditional birth attendant, even though the General Hospital with a maternity ward facilities were in existence. Traditional herbal practitioners usually kept a data base for all the remedies known to them. Many of them were uneducated and I recollect that I had the opportunity of assisting some of these people in updating their data base by either recording new remedies in their note books or reading from old records to refresh their memory as the need arose.
