Study: The sprouting ingredients of orchids may prevent schizophrenia

new research suggests that high intake of "Lesulphrene" in the buds of orchids in childhood may help prevent schizophrenia.Japanese researchers report in a new issue of the American Online Science Journal's Public Library of Science Comprehensive Volume that the high intake of "Lesulanethionane" in the buds of orchids in childhood may help prevent schizophrenia.schizophrenia is a group of unexamined severe mental illness, which is often clinically manifested as a syndrome with different symptoms and can involve cognitive function, thinking, emotion, behavior and so on.team has conducted clinical studies lethionane", also known as radish thiocin, which has antioxidant properties and has previously been shown to be used in areas such as cancer. This substance is abundant in orchids.The team, led by Professor Hashimoto of Chiba University in Japan, divided the mice, born between
4
and
8
weeks old, into two groups, equivalent to the children's period of the mice, one of whom fed regular food and the other with lethionane".8
weeks later, the researchers injected the mice with anesthetics that gave them schizophrenia-like symptoms, and a group of mice fed regular food developed schizophrenia symptoms, such as seeing the place where they had been living as the first place to arrive, and crawled around, indicating cognitive impairment.mice that ate foods containinglesions did not show this behavior, showing that they did not suffer from schizophrenia.team also found that abnormal behavior gradually returned to normal after injecting mice with schizophrenia symptoms after injecting anaestheticshowed that the nutrients mice consumed at an early age may have an impact on their mental health in adulthood, said Mr. Hashimoto, a health expert. The team has planned to conduct clinical studies to test whether the findings apply equally to humans.
