A method comprising topically applying to skin a composition comprising an aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic extract from Ipomoea batatas.

The invention relates to a personal care composition, more particularly to a composition for application to a topical surface that prevents or reduces inflammation. The composition could be delivered in the form of a skin, scalp, hair or oral care product, more particularly a skin care product. The benefit is delivered via a combination of a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) or ester thereof selected from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), DHA-ethyl ester, EPA-ethyl ester, DHA-triglyceride, EPA-triglyceride, dihomogamma-Linolenic Acid (DGLA), DGLA-ethyl ester, DGLA-triglyceride or combinations thereof and a 4-substituted resorcinol compound, wherein the mole ratio of the PUFA or ester thereof to the 4-substituted resorcinol compound is 5:1 to 1:5.

The present disclosure relates to a composition for preventing and treating a muscular disease, or improving muscular function, which contains Cudrania tricuspidata such as a pulverization product or an extract of Cudrania tricuspidata as an active ingredient. The Cudrania tricuspidata according to the present disclosure such as the pulverization product or extract of Cudrania tricuspidata has an effect of increasing the activity of mTOR, which is involved in muscle protein synthesis, and reducing the mRNA expression of MuRF-1 and atrogin-1, which are involved in muscle protein degradation, increases muscle mass and improves muscular function. Therefore, it may be usefully utilized in the prevention, alleviation or treatment of various muscular diseases such as atony, muscular atrophy, muscular dystrophy, muscle degeneration, muscle weakness, cachexia, sarcopenia, etc.

An oral cleaning composition in ingestible tablet or powder formulation contains natural materials. It has an advantage of portability because it is provided in a tablet or powder form instead of a liquid or gel form. In addition, the composition does not contain synthetic chemical components but uses only natural materials and can be safely ingested after use, and, thus, it does not require a space where it can be spit out. Furthermore, it exhibits excellent efficacy in inhibiting oral bacteria and removing bad breath.
