Giant angelica extract has shown effectiveness in the treatment of atherosclerosis. The results were published in the journal Aging.

Scientists from Chonbuk National University (South Korea) tested angelica extract on 40 rats at a daily dose of 100-300 mg/kg. The diet of all animals contained large amounts of fat. This type of nutrition led to endothelial dysfunction – deterioration of the vascular wall, which leads to increased atherosclerosis. This was manifested by the growth of vascular plaques, the accumulation of reactive oxygen species that damage cells, and other changes.

Angelica extract reversed endothelial dysfunction and associated molecular signaling impairment. Decursin, an important component of AGEs, showed a similar effect.

Angelica extract has long attracted the attention of scientists for its antioxidant properties. New research provides compelling evidence that a high-fat diet may be an effective way to prevent or alleviate cardiovascular complications.
