Maclura tricuspidata whole

Maclura tricuspidata whole is a botanical extract derived from the entire plant of the Maclura tricuspidata tree (also known as Cudrania tricuspidata), a member of the Moraceae family native to East Asia. It is primarily utilized in traditional Korean medicine and marketed as an over-the-counter (OTC) herbal product, such as 'Green Body' by Evercarepharm Co., Ltd. The extract contains a complex mixture of bioactive compounds, including xanthones, flavonoids, polyphenolic derivatives, and polysaccharides, which are thought to contribute to its anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective properties. While used traditionally for conditions like jaundice, hepatitis, and neuritis, it is not an FDA-approved pharmaceutical drug and lacks a single defined molecular target.
