Method and composition for administering bioactive compounds derived from
View Patent ↗This invention relates to a method and composition for providing in various health benefits by administering various bioactive compounds derived from the plant Morinda cirtrifolia to individuals. This invention relates to using one or more of the following: Noni Leaf Extract; Noni Leaf Juice; and/or Roast Leaf. More particularly this invention relates to administering one or more of the following: Pyro-phorbide a, Pheophorbide a, Purpin 7, and/or Pheophorbide all which may be derived from Noni leaf extract, Noni leaf juice, and/or Roast leaf. Moreover, the foregoing formulations result in alleviating pain and inflammation.
1. A method for treating inflammation, comprising administering to a mammal in need thereof, an effective amount of Morinda citrifolia leaf serum, wherein said leaf serum is prepared by:
a) obtaining crushed, dry Morinda citrifolia leaves,
b) percolating said crushed, dry Morinda citrifolia leaves through alcohol to obtain a mixture of an alcohol fraction comprising alcohol-soluble ingredients of Morinda citrifolia leaves and a solid fraction containing Morinda citrifolia leaves,
c) isolating the alcohol fraction from the mixture of part (b) to obtain an alcohol extract of Morinda citrifolia leaves,
d) fractioning the alcohol extract part of (c) into two fractions: a dry hexane fraction and an aqueous methanol fraction, and
e) combining said dry hexane fraction or said aqueous methanol fraction of part (d) with Morinda citrifolia fruit juice to make a Morinda citrifolia leaf serum.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the leaf serum is dissolved in water to dilute the solution by an amount selected from a list consisting of
10,000 milligrams per milliliter, 1000 milligrams per milliliter 100 milligrams per milliliter, 10 milligrams per milliliter, 1 milligram per milliliter, 0.1 milligrams per milliliter, 0.001 milligrams per milliliter, and 0.0001 milligrams per milliliter.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the leaf serum is further processed according to a method selected from a list consisting of: pasteurization, sterilization and partial sterilization.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of combining the leaf serum with a carrier medium prior to administration.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein treating inflammation is accomplished while maintaining gastric mucosal integrity.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of diluting the leaf serum by 100-fold prior to administration.
