Coumarins have also been shown to have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. It is in the pelargonium sidoides that a very large amount of coumarins is contained. Their high activity can be explained by the climatic conditions in which pelargonium grows. At high temperatures, enzymes are most fully activated, which enhance the synthesis of coumarin in the plant. As a result, polyhydroxylated coumarins and their derivatives (sulfates, C-glycosides, etc.) with unique properties are formed in pelargonium.
- Flavonoids are biologically active substances with antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and antioxidant effects. Of particular value is the bacteriostatic activity of flavonoids against antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- Phenolic acids have the ability to destroy numerous pathogenic microorganisms, and in terms of immunomodulatory properties they are able to surpass all other components. Phenolic acids help to produce interferon in the body, and as a result of thisuninfected cells will be protected from the virus.
- Tannins, like coumarins, are antibacterial and can bind bacterial toxins in the body.
