Oh, but darling what if you fly? ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Depression has been recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as the leading cause of disability, affecting an estimated 300 million people globally. To date antidepressants are prescribed as the first step in the treatment strategy. However, finding the appropriate antidepressant is often a lengthy process and is usually accompanied by side effects. A major and often unexpected side effect is reduced sexual function, which has been reported to aggravate depression and could possibly lead to poor compliance to medication. Sceletium tortuosum is a native South African plant, which has exhibited both antidepressant and anxiolytic properties. Although the exact mechanism of action remains to be elucidated, there are currently two hypotheses which attempt to explain it’s mechanism of action.

H. Ekiert 2Chair of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jagiellonian University Medical College Head: dr hab. W. Opoka, prof. of Jagiellonian University Summary The use of herbs or their parts: leaves, roots, rhizomes, flowers, seeds, natural strains, as well as extracts or isolated metabolites is becoming more and more popular. Natural remedies not only act prophylactically, but also help to alleviate symptoms of many diseases and enhance the overall functioning of the internal organs. Many raw materials of natural origin plays a role in treatment of health problems, and also in case of serious diseases such as depression. Depres- sion (affective disorder) now affects about 10% of the population, but in next few years due to the development of civilization and increasing pace of life, the probable number of people suffering from this disease can grow rapidly. Natural raw materials such as Bacopa monnieri, Crocus sativus, Eleutherococcus senticosus, Griffonia simplicifolia, Hypericum perforatum, Sceletium tortuosum, Piper methysticum, Rhodiola rosea, Aspalathus linearis, Camellia sinensis, Ficus carica, Lycium chinense, Cuminum cyminum, Panax Ginseng can effectively assist the prevention and treatment of depression. Daily diet may also have positive effect in prevention of this disease.

  • The Importance of Sceletium Tortuosum (L.) N.E. Brown and Its
    Chapter The Importance of Sceletium tortuosum (L.) N.E. Brown and Its Viability as a Traditional African Medicinal Plant Richard James Faber, Charles Petrus Laubscher and Muhali Olaide Jimoh Abstract Sceletium tortuosum is a succulent plant that belongs to the family Mesembryanthemaceae (Aizoaceae). It is indigenous to South Africa, where it is well known by the indigenous people, especially in Namaqualand where the plant is utilized regularly for its medicinal and psycho-active properties. The main alkaloids responsible for these properties are mesembrine, mesembrenine (mesembrenone), and mesembrenol. The potential of the plant to be an alternative supplement in the promotion of health and treating a variety of psychological and psychiatric disor- ders such as depression and anxiety has stimulated interest in its pharmacological property and possibility of its commercialization. The economic value of indig- enous medicinal plants in South Africa is approximately US$60 000 000 or R4 000 000 000 annually. Thus, interest in the knowledge and use of Traditional African Medicinal Plants (TAMP) as well as meeting pharmacological and economic needs of ever-increasing human population has led to the commercialization of traditional African medicines at a fast rate. It was found that S. tortuosum has clear pharmaceutical and economical importance and is one of the only known plants to contain the alkaloids mesembrenone and mesembrine which can be utilized for the promotion of health and/or treating a variety of psychological disorders such as anxiety and depression. Keywords: African medicine, Aizoaceae, alkaloids, hydroponics, mesembrine, mesembrenine, mesembrenol, mesembryanthemaceae 1. Introduction Sceletium tortuosum (L.) N.E. Br. and Sceletium expansum L.

This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. The Mental Wellness Company Mood+ Technical Data Sheet A comprehensive blend of research-backed premium herbs for mood support. Reduces tension and nervousness; Improves disposition and overall well-being.* KEY INGREDIENTS Zembrin® (Sceletium tortuosum) - also known as Kanna, Sceletium tortuosum was traditionally used by the San and Khoi peoples of Southern Africa as an analgesic (pain reliever), sedative, tonic (energy/stamina) and mood elevator. The traditionally prepared dried plant material is chewed, smoked, or powdered and inhaled as a snuff. It is also used as a tea or tincture. It was typically used in cognitively stressing situations such as hunting or coping in which its “adaptogenic” (stress-balancing) properties are readily apparent. Lower daily doses are known to have a subtle effect providing a sense of serenity and at the same time an elevated sense of alertness and awareness, while larger doses lead to a transient euphoria. Zembrin delivers a wide range of positive health benefits, including elevated mood and mental clarity; improved focus and memory; increased energy and motivation; lower stress hormone levels; and decreased everyday anxiety. Kanna is known to influence the amygdala of the brain (a brain region central in emotional processing) and is known to also have inhibitory effects on both the serotonin transporter as well as an enzyme known as phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4); both of these proteins existing in the amygdala. Kanna contains a family of alkaloids (mesembrine, mesembrenone, mesembrenol, and mesembranol) confirmed to have dual effects on inhibiting serotonin reuptake and PDE4.
