Positive impact of birch bark triterpenes on carbohydrate metabolism
- Betulinic Acid inhibits PTP1B improving sensitivity to leptin, an anti-obesity hormone.(1)
- Betulinic acid promotes energy expenditure by triggering the release of GLP-1 (10,11)
- Betulin stimulates glucose uptake at about 20% of the effect of Insulin. (12)
- Betulinic Acid impedes the breakdown of complex carbohydrates into simple sugars (12,13)
Birch bark triterpenes affect lipid metabolism and modification
- Betulinic Acid restricts fatty acid uptake from food2
- Lupeol inhibits the fatty acid synthase enzyme3
- Betulinic Acid promotes lipid breakdown by inhibiting cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase4
- Betulin and Betulinic Acid inhibits sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBP) improving hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance and reducing atherosclerotic plaque.5, 6
- Betulinic acid promotes the efflux of lipid from these foam cells reducing the risk of atherosclerosis7
- Birch bark triterpenes inhibit the oxidation of “bad” low-density lipoprotein to form oxLDL8, which contributes to atherosclerotic plaque formation9
