Lymphatonic – Melilotus Officinalis Extract

Lymphatonic capsules contain Lymphaselect®, a patented extract of Melilotus officinalis standardized to provide 18% of coumarin. The medicinal properties of Melilotus officinalis extract were recognized long ago by our ancestors – specifically for inflammation, ulcers, and swelling.

The standardized extract of Melilotus officinalis contains several benefits due to its contents in coumarins, flavonoids and terpenoids. It has veinotonic and capillary-protective properties, largely due to the presence of flavonoids. Its main constituent, coumarin, belongs to the family of benzopyrones, known for their ability to reduce protein-rich edemas. Melilotus officinalis is also referred to as sweet clover or yellow sweet clover. This sweet clover plant contains many lymphatonic benefits.

Lymphatonic Benefits

Scientific research has shown that standardized extract of Melilotus officinalis:

• Increases lymphatic flow; a Melilotus-based preparation administered to volunteers increased lymphatic flow of the thoracic duct, confirming its lymphokinetic properties.
• May have anti-inflammatory and anti-edema effects: in rabbits with venous stasis in their hind legs, a Melilotus-based preparation significantly increased lymphatic and venous circulation.
• Has the potential to reduce edematous swelling induced by experimental thrombophlebitis in dogs. Rutin appears to boost coumarin's anti-edema effect.
• Increases capillary blood flow in organs and tissues such as myocardium and striated muscles (in dogs, it had a protective effect against myocardial lesions induced by ischemia).
