To satisfy the need for safe and effective drugs against diseases like multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, a group of researchers from Riphah International University evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of Indian Lycium (Berberis lycium). In this study, which was published in The Journal of Animal & Plant Sciences, the researchers determined the effects of Indian Lycium on both chronic and acute models of inflammation.
From this study, the researchers observed that extracts from Indian Lycium effectively reduced both chronic and acute inflammation in a dose-dependent manner, proving that the plant can be used as an effective treatment against rheumatism.
