The present invention relates to a composition for preventing, treating or improving a prostate disease containing Acanthopanax sessiliflorus, Phragmites rhizome, and Pinus densiflora extracts as an active ingredient. According to the present invention, the complex extract of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus, Phragmites rhizome, and Pinus densiflora has an effect of inhibiting the activity of 5α-reductase associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia and has an advantage of having a few or no side effects of reducing a male sexual function by using a synthetic compound in the related art using ingredients derived from natural plants. Further, it is confirmed that in a complex extract obtained by mixing Acanthopanax sessiliflorus, Phragmites rhizome, and Pinus densiflora extracts at a more proper ratio, the 5α-reductase inhibitory activity is significantly excellent.

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a granule or a pill containing a plant, medicinal herb or traditional oriental medicine decoction extract, having the steps of: (a) injecting a powdered plant, medicinal herb or traditional oriental medicine decoction extract into a fluidized-bed device and spraying purified water or a solution of the same type of extract as the extract powder at the extract powder while fluidizing the same, thereby generating microgranules of the extract powder; and (b) injecting the microgranules generated at step (a) as seeds into the fluidized-bed device and spraying a solution of the extract while fluidizing the same, thereby growing the microgranules to a predetermined size of granule or pill. According to the present invention, it is possible to prepare a granule or a pill containing an extract in a high concentration.

The application provides nutraceutical compositions supporting an active life style and helps with the post-exercise recover. In one embodiment, the nutraceutical composition includes a gelling component in a sufficient amount to provide a cohesive gelled product and an active component. The active component consists of a vitamin B composition, a carbohydrate composition, an amino acid composition, an antioxidant composition, and an anti-inflammatory.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of health care products or foods and provides the use of a ginseng alcohol extract in sleep-promoting health care products or foods. Through analysis utilizing DAM2 drosophila behavior monitoring system, it is found that the ginseng alcohol extract can increase total sleep duration of normal and sleep deprived drosophilae, and relieve sleep rhythm disorder caused by sleep deprivation. Through a climbing experiment, it is found that the ginseng alcohol extract can improve the climbing ability of normal and sleep deprived drosophilae. The ginseng alcohol extract, on the one hand, improves the quality of sleep to protect the steady state of sleep rhythm, and on the other hand, increases the motive ability after sleep. The ginseng alcohol extract of the present disclosure is intended to be used to sleep-promoting health care products or healthy foods and improve the quality of sleep.

A composition for the promotion of alcohol and acetaldehyde degradation in a human is disclosed. The composition, which can be prepared by bringing all the ingredients together in intimate physical admixture, comprises an anti-hangover effective amount of: (a) essential herbs consisting of Ilex paraguarensis (Yerba mate), Eleutherococcus senticosus (Siberian ginseng), Panax ginseng and Zingiberis officinalis (ginger); and (b) one or more electrolyte(s) and, optionally, (c) sulphoraphane.

Preferably, the composition is in the form of a low-volume, aqueous, after-alcohol drink, that can avoid some of the potentially adverse effects of previously-known anti-hangover preparations.
