Description   

Dihydromyricetin (DHM), also known as ampelopsin, is a natural flavonoid compound, which is found in large quantities in Asian plant species. One of them – Hovenia dulcis – is known for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine as a cure for alcohol poisoning and hangover (Liang et al. 2014). DHM is sold as a supplement and is commonly marketed as a treatment for hangovers due to its ability to reduce blood alcohol levels and projected hepatoprotective properties.

Dihydromyricetin had beneficial effects on health such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory,antioxidative, anticancer, lipid and glucose metabolism-regulatory activities，and cell death-mediating without or with minimum adverse effects on normal cells. And most importantly, DHM has been shown to provide significant hepatoprotective effects. Its positive influence on alcohol-induced and other liver diseases was suggested in the study of acute liver failure (Liu et al. 2017).
