ARTICHOKE (CYNARA SCOLYMUS): NUTRITIONAL VALUE AND POSSIBLE HEALTH EFFECTS

Öz

Artichoke (Cynara Scolymus), which has been known and consumed for centuries; a rare precious vegetable in both Ancient Greece and Old Rome. Artichoke and its products have been recognized as potential phytotherapeutic agents for a variety of conditions such as cardiovascular, hepatic and gastric diseases. The aim of this review is to provide a review of the available literature evidence on the possible health effects of artichoke. Artichokes and artichoke leaf extract is used as an alternative to the treatment of diseases of the liver and digestive system, accelerating regeneration of liver after hepatectomy and eliminating intoxications, supporting weight control and blood fat and sugar with its fiber and other components. In addition, it is used as an alternative in the treatment of diseases with its antispasmotic, antifungal and antimicrobial effects. Because the results based on the possible health effects of artichoke focus on preclinical studies, extensive clinical studies are needed to better understand the existing effects of artichoke.

ENGİNAR (CYNARA SCOLYMUS): BESİN DEĞERİ VE OLASI SAĞLIK ETKİLERİ

Öz

Yüzyıllardır bilinen ve beğenilerek tüketilen enginarın (Cynara Scolymus); hem Eski Yunan’da hem de Eski Roma’da nadir bulunan kıymetli bir sebze olduğu bilinmektedir. Enginar ve ürünleri, kardiyovasküler, hepatik ve mide hastalıkları gibi çeşitli durumlar için potansiyel fitoterapötik ajanlar olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bu derlemenin amacı, enginarın olası sağlık etkilerine dair mevcut literatür kanıtlarının bir incelemesini sağlamaktır. Enginar ve enginar yaprağı ekstraktının; karaciğer ve sindirim sistemi hastalıklarının tedavilerinde, hepatektomi sonrasında karaciğer rejenerasyonunun hızlandırılması ve zehirlenmelerin giderilmesinde, lif içeriği ve içeriğinde yer alan diğer bileşenler sayesinde kan şeker ve lipid düzeyleri ile ağırlık kontrolünün sağlanmasında etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, antispazmotik, antifungal, antimikrobiyal etkileri ile hastalıkların tedavisinde alternatif olarak kullanılmaktadır. Enginarın olası sağlık etkilerine dayanan sonuçların preklinik çalışmalara odaklanması sebebiyle enginarın var olan etkilerinin daha iyi anlaşılması için kapsamlı klinik araştırmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
