  Description of Gentian:Narrative and Names of Gentian,Collection of Gentian,Actions and indication of Gentian:

 Description of Gentian:
 Gentiana is a perennial herb indigenous to the alpine and sub-alpine pastures of central and southern Europe. Ringed and forked, the thick wrinkled root is brown on the outside and yellow on the inside. The simple, erect, glabrous stem grows to a height of 120cm, giving off opposite bluish-green elliptical leaves with prominent curved veins. Three to ten yellow flowers arise together in the axils of bowl-shaped bracts after the root is about ten years old. The fruit is an oblong, two-valved capsule.
 Narrative and Names of Gentian:
 Gentian is named after Gentius, King of Illyria in the 1st or 2nd century BC, who is said to have discovered the plant's ability to reduce fevers. Gentian root is used in many bitter liqueurs. Other species of Gentiana, known as longdan, are prescribed in Chinese medicine for similar conditions to those outlined above, as well as for conjunctivitis, urinary tract infections, jaundice, hepatitis, eczema and other skin problems

 Gentian contains bitter substances such as the glycosides gentiopicrin and amarogentin. The bitter taste of these can be detected even when diluted 50,000 times. Besides stimulating secretion of saliva in the mouth and hydrochloric acid in the stomach, gentiopicrin may protect the liver. Gentian is used to treat poor appetite and indigestion. An open study shows that gentian tincture inhibits the feeling of fullness after eating, suggesting it could improve poor appetite
  Constituents of Gentian root:
 The dried Gentian root of commerce contains Gentiin and Gentiamarin, bitter glucosides, together with Gentianic acid (gentisin), the latter being physiologically inactive. Gentiopicrin, another bitter glucoside, a pale yellow crystalline substance, occurs in the fresh root, and may be isolated from it by treatment with boiling alcohol. The saccharine constituents of Gentian are dextrose, laevulose, sucrose and gentianose, a crystallizable, fermentable sugar. It is free from starch and yields from 3 to 4 per cent ash.
 Constitution in brief: Glycosides (gentiopicroside and amarogentin are primarily responsible for its bitter taste). Alkaloids. Flavonoids. Terpenes. Minerals. Vitamins.
 Constituents of Gentian root: bitter principles of secoiridoid types (gentiopicrin, amarogentin, sweroside, swertiamarin); alkaloids (gentianine, gentialutine); oligosaccharides (gentianose); triterpenes; sugars (gentianose, gentiobiose), sucrose; polysaccharides (inulin, pectin); xanthones (gentisin, gentisein, isogentisin, gentioside, which impart the yellow colour to the root); phenolic acids (gentisic, caffeic, protocatechuic and others); traces of a complex volatile oil.

  More details of Constitution: 1,3,7-trimethoxyxanthone; 1-hydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyxanthone;1-o-primverosyl-7-oxy-3-methoxyxanthone; 2,3',4,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone;7-o-primverosyl-1-oxy-3-methoxyxanthone; alpha-terpineol; aluminum (291 ppm);amarogentin (500-1200 ppm); ascorbic-acid (183 ppm); caffeic-acid;calcium (8140 ppm); carvacrol; chromium (13 ppm); cis-linalyl-oxide; cobalt (14 ppm); gentialutine; gentiamarin; gentianine (6000-8000 ppm); gentianose; gentiin; gentiobiose; gentiodise; gentioflavoside; gentiopicrin (11400-35000 ppm); gentioside; gentisein; gentisic-acid; gentisin; inulin; iron (370 ppm); isogentisin; limonene; linalol; magnesium (2740 ppm); manganese (23 ppm); mangiferin; niacin; nicotinic-acid; nicotinic-acid-amide; oxycinnamic-acid; pectin; phosphorus (2700 ppm); potassium (8770 ppm); protein (138000 ppm); protocatechuic-acid; riboflavin (2.1 ppm); saccharose; selenium; sinapic-acid; sodium (41 ppm); sucrose; swertiamarin; syringic-acid; thiamin (48 ppm); tin (40 ppm); zinc (29 ppm). ppm = parts per million.
 Glycosides known as amarogentin and gentiopicrin are primarily responsible for the bitter taste of gentian. In addition, the plant contains several alkaloids (mainly gentianine and gentialutine), xanthones, triterpenes, and sugars. Aside from its action as a bitter stomachic, none of the other purported effects is well documented in human beings. Some experiments on small animals indicate that gentian may increase the secretion of bile; the alkaloid gentianine also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties.
 Amarogentin - Although present in much smaller quantities than gentiopicroside, amarogentin is the constituent largely responsible for the bitterness of gentian. It is 3,000 times more bitter than gentiopicroside, and, tasted at dilutions of 1 :50,000, it is possibly the most bitter substance on the planet.

  Properties of Gentian.Radix Gentianae.Gentian root.:

 Alterative, Anthelmintic, Anti-Inflammatory, Antiseptic, Antispasmodic, Blood Purifier, Emmenagoug, Febeifuge, Hepatic, Sialoguge, Stimulant, Stomachic, Vulnerary
 Besides being unrivalled as a stomachic tonic, Gentian possesses febrifuge, emmenagogue, anthelmintic and antiseptic properties, and is also useful in hysteria, female weakness, etc. Gentian with equal parts of Tormentil or galls has been used with success for curing intermittent fever.
  Primary Nutrients of Gentian root: Inositol, Iron, Manganese, Niacin, Silicon, Sulphur, Vitamins F, B-complex and Zinc
  Modern uses: Herbalists prefer to use the Yellow Gentian (Gentiana lutea), which they regard as one of the finest ofall tonic medicines. It has a very bitter taste even when greatly diluted.
 It is used for all cases of general debility, anorexia, dyspepsia and jaundice. There are several official preparations listed in the British Pharmacopoeia; but as the root yields all of its medicinal properties in water, it can be used domestically in the form of an infusion. It is better to combine the powdered root with an aromatic herb, like Cardamoms, to reduce the bitterness. One-fifth to one-half a teaspoonful of the powder is infused in a cupful of boiling water, and sweetened with honey.

  Medicinal Action and application of Gentian.Radix Gentianae.Gentian root.:

  Primary Uses: Appetite Loss, Circulation/poor, Gastric Disorders, Indigestion, Jaundice, Liver Disorders

  Secondary Uses: Anemia, Blood Impurities, Colds, Constipation, Cramps/stomach, Diarrhea, Dysentery, Fevers, Gas, Gout, heartburn, Menstruation/absent, Nausea, Spleen Ailments, Urinary Problems, Worms, Wounds, Yeast Infections

  Medicinal virtues: The virtues of both are similar. They resist putrefactions and poison and a more sure remedy to prevent the pestilence cannot be found. It strengthens the stomach, helps digestion, comforts the heart, and preserves it against Paintings and swoonings. The powdered dried root opens obstructions of the liver and restores the appetite.
 The herb provokes urine and the terms exceedingly, and therefore should not be given to women with child. But it is profitable for those troubled with cramps and convulsions, to drink the decoction. This also breaks the stone and helps ruptures. To kill the worms, take half a dram (1g) of the powder in the morning in any convenient liquor. It will also instantly heal lites on cattle's udders.

 Gentian (Gentiana lutea) Gentian has been used for centuries for weakened digestive ability due to a weakness in gastric secretion, bile production or pancreatic enzyme production. It is our standard treatment for loss of appetite, anorexia, flatulence and heartburn. It also is great for sugar cravings along with Gymnema. Its bitterness really increases salivation and vagal nerve function, so we've successfully used it for people who have lost bowel function due to sluggish vagal nerve function.

  Actions:  The essential active principles are the bitter substances contained in the herb. These bring about a reflex excitation of the taste receptors, leading to increased secretion of saliva and the digestive juices. Gentian root is therefore considered to be not simply a pure bitter, but also a roborant and tonic. In animal experimentation there are indications that bronchial secretion is increased.

  Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effect: Gentiopicroside can inhibit carrageenin from causing edema in rat paws. Intra-abdominal injection of gentianine has a significant inhibitory effect on egg white and formaldehyde-induced edema in rats. Gentian also has a significant anti-allergic effect. Experiments show that gentiopicroside has a significant protective effect on histamine-induced shock in guinea pigs and on egg white-induced allergic shock in rats. It can also significantly reduce capillary permeability in rats. If gentian water-extract is given before allergy was induced or before and after an allergic reaction attack, it can, like cortical hormone, significantly inhibit picryl chloride-induced DTH in mice.

  Anti-pathogenic effects: In vitro experiments show that Long Dan decoction can inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus proteus, typhoid bacillus, Staphylococcus aureus, Trichophyton gypseum, and Nocardia asteroides. The decoction has a strong paralytic effect on Ascaris suis. Fed to cats at 75-200mg/kg, gentianine can expel ascaris.

  Assimilation of fats: Gentian's bitter glycosides gentiopicrin and amarogentin stimulate secretion of saliva in the mouth and hydrochloric acid in the stomach, and may also stimulate bile production, which aids in the body's assimilation of fats.
 Gentian is one of the most useful of our bitter vegetable tonics. It is specially useful in states of exhaustion from chronic disease and in all cases of general debility, weakness of the digestive organs and want of appetite. It is one of the best strengtheners of the human system, and is an excellent tonic to combine with a purgative to prevent its debilitating effects. Many dyspeptic complaints are more effectually relieved by Gentian bitters than by Peruvian Bark. It is of extreme value in jaundice and is prescribed extensively.
 Besides being unrivalled as a stomachic tonic, Gentian possesses febrifuge, emmenagogue, anthelmintic and antiseptic properties, and is also useful in hysteria, female weakness, etc. Gentian with equal parts of Tormentil or galls has been used with success for curing intermittent fever.
 As a simple bitter, Gentian is considered more palatable combined with an aromatic, and for this purpose orange peel is frequently used. A tincture made with 2 oz. of the root, 1 oz. of dried orange peel, and ? oz. bruised cardamom seeds in a quart of brandy is an excellent stomachic tonic, and is efficacious in restoring appetite and promoting digestion. A favourite form in which Gentian has been administered in country remedies is as an ingredient in the so-called Stockton bitters, in which Gentian and the root of Sweet Flag play the principal part.

  Cholagogic effects: Administered to dogs by IV injection, Long Dan juice can significantly increase the bile flow. Specifically, the bile flow peaks at the 5-minute and 20-minute marks, the former due to gallbladder contraction, while the latter due to an increase in bile secretion. Administered by intraduodenal injection to healthy rats or rats with live damages, Long Dan juice has a significant cholagogic effect, increasing bile secretion, and promoting gallbladder contraction.

  Cooling the system: Gentian is used to reduce fevers by cooling the system. Gentian contains a bitter principle, amarogentin , which stimulates the glands, including the adrenals and the thyroid. It helps in the production of bile, which can have a positive effect on the liver and gallbladder.
 Gentian is also used to clean the bowels, stimulate the pancreas, stimulate circulation, aid in the digestive process and help with female problems. Historically, gentian has been used to treat wounds and taken internally for inflammation from arthritis, jaundice and a sore throat. It is considered a great tonic for strengthening the entire body.
 Gentian root Strengthens the digestive organs, increases circulation and is good for female organs.
 Gentian root is a stimulator of the general circulation, which in turn stregthens the total system.
 Gentian root is a high in simple energy producing sugars and is beneficial to the digesting organs, the stomach, and pancreas, as well as being an aid to the well being of both the kidney and spleen.

 Widespread use of gentian as an appetite stimulant and digestive aid would seem to favor the herb as effective for these conditions. However, since it is normally consumed as an alcoholic beverage, it is difficult to separate the effects of gentian from those of alcohol, which are very similar, at least when the alcohol is consumed in moderate amounts. In normal individuals, gentian is unlikely to produce undesirable side effects; however, occasional headaches have been reported. Overdoses (greater than 0.1 to 2 g of the drug decocted in 150 ml of water, three times per day), could lead to nausea or vomiting. Use is contraindicated in gastric or duodenal ulcers and hyperacidity. Pahlow warns that the drug may not be tolerated well by those with very high blood pressure or by expectant mothers. Actually, these people should be very cautious about using any medication, herbal or otherwise.

  Digestive aids&Chronic disease: Gentian root and other highly bitter plants have been used for centuries by herbalists in Europe as digestive aids (the well-known Swedish bitters often contain gentian). Other folk uses included topical application on skin tumors, decreasing fevers, and treatment of diarrhea.
 Gentian increases the appetite, stimulates digestive juices, decreases intestinal inflammation, treats indigestion, heartburn, liver and spleen disorders, promotes menstruation, strengthens and builds the body, and is helpful for gout and arthritis. Do not use during pregnancy.
 Gentian is one of the most useful of our bitter vegetable tonics. It is specially useful in states of exhaustion from chronic disease and in all cases of general debility, weakness of the digestive organs and want of appetite. It is one of the best strengtheners of the human system, and is an excellent tonic to combine with a purgative to prevent its debilitating effects. Many dyspeptic complaints are more effectually relieved by Gentian bitters than by Peruvian Bark. It is of extreme value in jaundice and is prescribed extensively.

  Effect on the central nervous system: Gentianine has significant sedative and anti-convulsion effects, and it can significantly reduce body temperature. Experiments show that gentianine can significantly reduce spontaneous activity in animals, strengthen the anesthetic effect of barbital and chloral hydrate on the central nervous system, and inhibit strychnine-induced convulsion. It does not inhibit cardiazol-induced convulsion, however, and it can aggravate nicotine-induced convulsion. Intra-abdominal injection of swertiamarin can also inhibit mice's spontaneous activity, and prolong the duration of sodium pentothal's anesthetic effect. Hot plate and body torsion experiments on mice show that intra-abdominal injection of swertiamarin has a significant analgesic effect. At 600mg/kg, its analgesic effect is about the same as that of morphine at 10mg/kg.

  Effect on the activity of steroid 4-reductase: Gentian root can significantly inhibit the activivity of 4-reductase of steroid, a key enzyme for the decomposition and metabolism of cortisol in the liver of rats with hyperthyroidism, thus reducing the degradation of cortisol and significantly decreasing the excretion of 17-hydroxy corticosteroid.

  Inhibitory effect on reductase of crystal aldose: Gentian root has a significant inhibitory effect on reductase (AR) of crystal aldose in rats.

  Protecting the liver: Administered to mice by abdominal injection at 30mg/kg, Long Dan juice can alleviate CCl4-induced cytomorphosis and tissue necrosis, and increase the content of hepatic glycogen. Administered to mice by abdominal injection at 240mg/kg, twice a day, for two days, gentiopicroside can counteract CCl4- or GALN-induced liver damages. Gentiopicroside can also significantly reduce liver lipid peroxidation in hungry mice. Sweroside can significantly counteract CCl4- or GALN-induced acute liver damages in both mice and rats, reduce ALT, AST, and ALP, and prevent splenomegaly caused by GALN poisoning.

  Stomach-strengthening effect: Direct perfusion of gentiopicroside through gastric fistula to the stomach of dogs can increase the secretion of gastric juice and free acid. Administering by rubbing it onto the underside of the tongue or through intravenous injection, however, does not have this effect, suggesting that the effect is due to direct action on the stomach. Swertiamarin can significantly alleviate spasm in isolated small intestine of rabbits, guinea pigs, or rats, and can antagonize the stimulatory effect of acetylcholine, histamine, and barium chloride on isolated small intestine of guinea pigs.

  Therapeutics and Pharmacology of Gentian.Radix Gentianae.Gentian root.:

 Gentiana is a much-used gastric stimulant, specifically indicated in dyspepsia with anorexia, but useful to digestive atony of any sort. It may be used in the treatment of insufficient gastric secretions, intestinal and gastric inflammations, hepatic and gallbladder disease, and is a useful adjunct to fever management and in conditions of chronic inflammatory disease where digestion appears to be less than ideal. Its action begins as soon as it is absorbed by the mucous membrane of the mouth.
 The secoiridoid bitter principles, particularly amarogentin, stimulate gustatory receptors in the taste buds, causing a reflex increase in the secretion of saliva, gastric juice and bile, thereby stimulating the appetite.
 Amarogentin is one of the most bitter substances known. It also accelerates emptying of the stomach and improves gastric tone, so that heavy food is more easily digested. Gentiana contains no tannin, so there is no astringent or irritant effect. One of its alkaloids, gentianine, has been shown to be anti-inflammatory. The fresh leaves placed on wounds and inflammations act as a refrigerant; and they also make soothing footbaths.
 Action of bitter principles-There are 4 main taste receptors on the tongue -sweet, sour, salt, and bitter. It has been shown that the bitter principles in gentian stimulate the bitter taste receptors on the tongue, causing an increase in the production of saliva and gastric secretions. This in turn stimulates the appetite and improves the action of the digestive system in general.
 Digestive stimulant-By stimulating the action of the stomach, many symptoms associated with a weak digestion such as gas, indigestion, and poor appetite are relieved. Stomach and other secretions are improved, which in turn helps to increase the absorption of nutrients. The herb also acts as a stimulant on the gallbladder and liver; encouraging them to function more efficiently. Gentian is therefore useful in almost any condition where the digestive system needs to be toned up. Gentian is often taken as a digestive tonic in old age.
 Nutrient absorption-By improving digestive function, gentian increases the absorption of nutrients across the gut wall. It aids the absorption of a wide range of nutrients, including iron and vitamin B12, and is therefore useful for iron-deficiency anemia (usually resulting from blood loss). Gentian is often added to prescriptions for women with heavy menstrual bleeding.

  King's 1898 Dispensatory::

 'A powerful tonic, improves the appetite, strengthens digestion, gives more force to the circulation, and slightly elevates the heat of the body.'
 'When taken in large doses it is apt to oppress the stomach, irritate the bowels, and even produces nausea and vomiting, as well as fullness of pulse and headache. Its administration is contraindicated where gastric irritability or inflammation are present.'
 'Used in cases of debility and exhaustion, and in all cases where a tonic is required, as dyspepsia, gout, amenorrhoea, hysteria, scrofula, intermittents, diarrhoea, worms, etc.'
 'A tincture made by percolation of 1 part of podophyllum and 5 parts of gentian, diluted alcohol being the menstruum, was prized by Prof. Scudder as one of the most efficient remedies for 'atony of the stomach and bowels with feeble or slow digestion' (Spec. Med.).'
 'Gentian is valuable to relieve irritation and increase the appetite, after protracted fevers, where the powers of life are depressed and recovery depends upon ability to assimilate food.'
 'Dose of the powder, from 10 to 30 grains; of the extract, from 1 to 10 grains; of infusion, 1 or 2 fluid ounces; of tincture, 1 or 2 fluid drachms; of specific gentiana, 5 to 40 drops.'

  American Materia Medica, 1919 (Ellingwood):

 'This is a popular stomachic tonic in cases where enfeeblement has occurred as the result of protracted disease. It has long been given in combination with other tonics or in wine, as an agent in the dyspepsia of the aged, or of gouty patients, and in the gastric inefficiency of infants and children, and to a good advantage in catarrhal diarrhoea.'
 'As a tonic to the stomach, and the other organs of digestion and appropriation, in those cases where the system is greatly debilitated by protracted disease, it is one of the best remedies, especially by exhausting fevers of malarial origin. It is of much value in malarial conditions generally and has been used to a great extent instead of quinine.'
 'When the periodicity has been overcome by quinine this is a rapid restorative to the system.'
 'The tincture of gentian is given freely in conjunction with other tonics and with alteratives. It is given with the tincture of iron in the treatment of anemia complicating malarial disease. It is given in conjunction with the iodide of potassium where a tonic and alterative is demanded, and given alternately with hydrocyanic or hydrochloric acid, it is sometimes of great value in the vomiting of pregnancy.'
 'This agent is perhaps the most valuable of this class. It can be depended upon as a bitter tonic and constant use will establish a confidence in it.'
