RESEARCH DATA
Eleuthero is sold in the United States as "Siberian Eleuthero" (E. senticosus (Rupr. et Maxim.) Maxim., family Araliaceae). It is known in China as ci wu jia. The plant is a spiny-stemmed shrub found in northeast Asia and Japan, and is presently prescribed for medicinal use in France, Germany, Russia, and China. The part used consists of the dried roots and root bark. Eleuthero has been used in China as a folk remedy for bronchitis, heart ailments, and rheumatism, and as a tonic to restore vigor, improve general health, restore memory, promote healthy appetite, and increase stamina. The term "adaptogen" was coined by a Soviet researcher to describe eleuthero's ability to increase "non-specific" resistance in an organism and to help modulate stress and improve performance under stressful conditions. Much of the scientific literature published in China still employs the former Latin binomial Acanthopanax senticosus.
There is a relatively small number of controlled clinical trials performed with eleuthero. A single-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial lasting eight days investigated the effect of eleuthero extract (2 ml, twice daily) on working capacity and fatigue of six male athletes, ages 21–22. Oxygen uptake, heart rate, total work, and exhaustion time were measured. Significant results were observed in all parameters, particularly the 23.3% increase in total work noted in the eleuthero test group compared with 7.5% of the placebo group.
An eight-week double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated the efficacy of eleuthero extract (3.4 ml daily) on submaximal and maximal exercise performance of 20 highly trained distance runners. No significant difference was observed between test and control groups in heart rate, oxygen consumption, expired minute volume, respiratory exchange ratio, perceived exertion, and serum lactate levels.
A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study compared cognitive function measurements in 24 subjects who took eleuthero (625 mg twice daily), Ginkgo biloba (28.2 mg flavonolglycosides daily), or placebo. At the end of each three-month dose period, concentration, selective memory, cognitive function, and well-being were measured. Significant improvements in selective memory of the eleuthero group versus the placebo group (p<0.02) were demonstrated. For those taking ginkgo, results were significant only in those subjects over age 48 (p<0.05). No change in concentration was discovered in any group. Significant effects from eleuthero were also noted in feelings of well-being and levels of activity.
Several studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of eleuthero on eye conditions and color distinction. One study evaluated the pre- and post-operative effects of eleuthero extract (1.5 ml twice daily) on 282 male or female patients suffering from primary glaucoma (102 cases) and eye burns (58 cases). Beneficial effects were noted in both treatments. Eleuthero was also found beneficial in 122 cases of myopia treatment.
In 50 patients with normal trichromatic vision a single dose of eleuthero extract (2 ml) stimulated color distinction (red and green) within 30 to 60 minutes after ingestion. Maximum effect was reached in six to seven hours and persisted for a minimum of 29 hours.
