arctium lappa aqueous extract

Arctium lappa aqueous extract is a botanical preparation derived from the roots of the burdock plant (*Arctium lappa* L.) using water as the primary solvent. This extract is rich in bioactive compounds such as inulin, mucilage, and various phenolic acids, including chlorogenic and caffeic acids. It is primarily recognized for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential lipid-lowering activities. Preclinical research, such as studies in avian models of atherosclerosis, indicates that the aqueous extract can exert protective effects against high-fat diet-induced vascular damage by reducing oxidative stress and improving lipid profiles. It is widely utilized in traditional medicine systems and is available as a dietary supplement.
