Rhodiola rosea L. (Golden Root) has been used for a long time as an adaptogen in Chinese traditional medicine and is reported to have many pharmacological properties. Sachaliside 1 was isolated from Rhodiola rosea L. It was discovered the inhibitory effects of Sachaliside 1 on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha production in the peritoneal macrophages of mice stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Eucalyptol is a natural organic compound with fresh mint-like smell and a spicy, cooling taste. Eucalyptol comprises up to 90 percent of the essential oil of some species of the generic product Eucalyptus oil, hence the common name of the compound. It is also found in camphor laurel, bay leaves, tea tree, mugwort, sweet basil, wormwood, rosemary, common sage, Cannabis sativa and other aromatic plant foliage. Eucalyptol with a purity from 99.6 to 99.8 percent can be obtained in large quantities by fractional distillation of eucalyptus oil. Eucalyptol is an ingredient in many brands of mouthwash and cough suppressant, as well as an inactive ingredient in body powder. The typical concentrations of eucalyptol in cosmetic products have been reported to be 1.6% in perfume, 0.4% in soap, 0.1% in creams and lotions and 0.04% in detergents. Committee of Experts on Flavouring Substances of the Council of Europe (CEFS) proposed upper levels of 0.1 mg/kg in beverages and 5 mg/kg in food with the exception of 15 mg/kg in candy and confectionery and 50 mg/kg in alcoholic beverages. Eucalyptol controls airway mucus hypersecretion and asthma via anti-inflammatory cytokine inhibition. Eucalyptol is an effective treatment for nonpurulent rhinosinusitis. Eucalyptol reduces inflammation and pain when applied topically.

Esculin (Esculoside), a coumarin compound derived from the horse chestnut and the traditional Chinese herbs such as Cortex Fraxini, has long been used for treating inflammatory and vascular diseases. The main activities of Esculoside focus on capillary protection, as it improves capillary permeability and fragility. It is reported to inhibit catabolic enzymes such as hyaluronidase and collagenase, thus preserving the integrity of the perivascular connective tissue. Esculin has various biological activities including anti-oxidant activity, intestinal anti-inflammatory activity, anti-cancer activity and growth inhibition of human leukemia cells. Esculin inhibits lipid peroxidation and scavenges hydroxyl radicals in the rat liver and exerts anti-inflammatory activity in both carrageenan- and zymosan-induced paw edema in mice. Esculin has the gastroprotective effect in cold-restraint stress and pylorus ligation-induced ulcer models. Esculin is used in a microbiology laboratory to aid in the identification of bacterial species (especially Enterococci and Listeria).
