Pharmacological Properties

1. Antioxidant:
CGA is a natural antioxidant that can protect cells from oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. Oxidative stress is associated with several chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. CGA's antioxidant properties may help prevent or reduce the risk of these diseases by reducing oxidative stress.

2. Anti-inflammatory:
CGA has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are signaling molecules involved in the inflammatory response. Chronic inflammation is associated with many chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. CGA's anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce inflammation and prevent or treat these diseases.

3. Anti-cancer:
CGA has been found to have anti-cancer properties and can inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. CGA's anti-cancer properties may be due to its ability to induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells and inhibit angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels that supply nutrients to tumors).

4. Anti-diabetic:
CGA has been shown to have anti-diabetic properties by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing blood glucose levels. Insulin resistance and high blood glucose levels are characteristic features of type 2 diabetes. CGA's anti-diabetic properties may help prevent or treat type 2 diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing blood glucose levels.

5. Anti-hypertensive:
CGA has been shown to have anti-hypertensive properties by reducing blood pressure. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. CGA's anti-hypertensive properties may help reduce blood pressure and prevent or treat cardiovascular disease.

6. Anti-obesity:
CGA has been found to have anti-obesity properties by reducing body weight, body fat, and adipocyte size. Obesity is a major risk factor for several chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. CGA's anti-obesity properties may help reduce the risk of these diseases by reducing body weight and body fat.
