Chemical composition.
The composition of the hog queen includes such substances as flavonoids, resins, coumarins, saponins, arbutin, bitter substances, tannins, as well as citric and tartaric acid.
Flavonoids are a group of plant pigments that are responsible for coloring flowers and fruits. Flavonoids have the ability to change the body's response to carcinogens, viruses and allergens, so they have anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, antiviral and anticarcinogenic (anti-cancer) properties. The antioxidant effect of flavonoids is widely known, providing protection of the body against damage by free radicals.
Arbutin is a glycoside that decomposes in the body into hydroquinone - a very effective antiseptic, which has an anti-inflammatory and diuretic effect, and glucose.
The effect of treatment by the harrow is enhanced by the use of components such as tannins and products of their hydrolysis.
