Anacardic acids are phenolic lipids, phytochemicals of the organic acid found abundantly in cashews, mangoes, etc.
The immune system is the
set of cells and their activity against antigens or infectious agents
that comprises of the body's defense system against diseases.
The immune system does a great job of keeping people healthy and
preventing infections. Beside foods and nutritional supplements, herbs
also play a important role in helping the immune system defend against
viruses and bacteria attacks.
The health effects
An anacardic acids mixture isolated from Amphipterygium adstringens has
performed its anti bacterial effect as an alternate to antibiotics by
inhibition of the regulator of virulence and biofilm formation in the pathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Anacardic acid
mixture (AAM) showed 94% of inhibition of the violecin production at
166 μg/mL and 86% of inhibition of pyocyanin production at 200 μg/mL).
Otehr in the study of a new anacardic acid, indicated that its deviratives, 16'Z-nonadecenyl]-salicylic acid and masticadienonic acid also inhibited bacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans and Porphyromonas gingivalis with minimum inhibitory concentrations.
