Medical applications

DHQ medical applications:

• High antioxidant ability; retardation of peroxidation, limitation of injuring action of free radicals.
• Retardation of organism ageing due to optimization of peripheral circulation and protection of cell membranes from destruction.
• Improvement of functional state of cardio-vascular system. Optimization of magisterial and peripheral blood flow, lowering of blood pressure in case of arterial hypertension, normalization of vessel wall penetrance, blood viscosity and coagulation activity.
• Optimization of coronary blood flow, excitability, conductivity, and contractility of myocardia.
• Improvement of cerebrovascular blood flow and blood lipid profile, retardation of atherosclerosis development.
• Decrease of risk of progress of diabetic, vascular complications.
• Restoration of microcirculation during rehabilitation after a stroke or heart attack, limiting of dystrophic and sclerotic changes.
• Improvement of visual apparatus function in case of inflammatory, sclerotic, and dystrophic eye diseases, oxyopia, acceleration of retinal bleeding resolution.
• Immune-modulating activity; the substance is efficient during allergic and immunodeficiency disorders.
• Natural antibiotic with obvious bactericidal and antifungal properties.
• Prophylaxis of ARVI and exacerbation of chronic diseases of respiratory organs.
• Assists more rapid resolution of inflammation during diseases of respiratory organs (pneumonia, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and tracheae).
• Retardation of tumor cell mitosis by activation of apoptosis; normal cell pool rests untouched.
• Pronounced rejuvenating effect, stimulation of skin regeneration, including synthesis of collagen and elastin. Improvement of skin protective properties, removal of acne-form rash.
• Improvement of organism resistance to physical and mental load. The substance is indicated during chronic fatigue syndrome.
• Natural gastro-protector and hepatic-protector. Optimization of regeneration of gastric mucosa; healing of stomach and duodenal ulcers, restoration of kidney function. Prophylaxis of kidney injury by viruses and toxic substances (poisons, alcohol, salts of heavy metals).
• The substances decrease adverse effects of chemo and radiotherapy.
• Decreases production of hydroxyl radicals, supports an organism’s ability to recover after exposure to toxic and radioactive elements.
• Has the positive effect on the liver function: normalizes the cell membrane and the structure of hepatocytes, has an antioxidant effect, accelerates the regeneration of damaged liver parenchyma, thereby enhances its detoxifying function.
