According to the statistics of my outpatient department over the past few years, the incidence of chronic prostatitis in outpatient patients has been an obviously increasing trend. The investigation found that chronic prostatitis patients, and car drivers, especially long-distance bus drivers accounted for a larger proportion, and were not easy to cure. Therefore, people engaged in this work, to understand this phenomenon, do not sit for a long time at work, appropriate rest after work, and timely change of position, improve the local congestion of the prostate, in order to reduce or avoid chronic prostatitis. The n-butanol and water layer extracts of the 50% ethanol extract of Cistanche Desert have good anti-inflammatory activity. The extract of Cistanche tubulosa rich in echinacoside has a good effect on improving dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis in mice. Seven phenoxyethanol glycosides isolated from the Cistanche desert have a protective effect on inflammatory cells caused by nitric oxide. Cistanche glycoside K and tubulin B have a good effect on the secretion of nitric oxide in BV-2 cells induced by LPS. Its inhibitory effect shows that it has an anti-inflammatory effect.
