Butterfly pea flower is a natural plant rich in anthocyanins. Its main effects include anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, and promoting blood circulation. Its high anthocyanin content helps delay aging and improve cardiovascular health. It is also traditionally used for eye protection and stress relief. Pregnant women and those with abnormal coagulation function should be used with caution.

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory

Anthocyanins in butterfly pea flowers are natural antioxidants that can scavenge free radicals, reduce oxidative damage, and delay cell aging. Studies have shown that its antioxidant activity can help improve skin condition and reduce inflammatory responses, and has certain benefits for people with chronic inflammation or skin sensitivity.

Cardiovascular health

The active ingredients in butterfly pea flowers can promote blood circulation, help regulate blood lipids, and maintain vascular elasticity. Some experiments have found that its extracts have a certain effect on lowering cholesterol, but it needs to be combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle, and cannot replace drug treatment.

Eye protection and nervous system

Anthocyanins have a positive effect on retinal health and may relieve eye fatigue. In addition, butterfly pea tea is often used in Southeast Asia to soothe emotions. Its mild sedative effect may help relieve anxiety or insomnia, but the specific mechanism still needs more research verification.

Antibacterial and metabolic regulation

Experiments have shown that butterfly pea flower extract has an inhibitory effect on some bacteria (such as Escherichia coli) and may help improve immunity. In addition, its low-calorie properties make it suitable for adding to drinks or food to replace artificial colors, but its "weight loss" effect should not be exaggerated.
