Shikimic acid has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, and can also be used as an anti-viral and anti-cancer drug intermediate. Star anise contains shikimic acid, an important ingredient against Asian avian influenza virus. Experts say this is the only weapon in the world against bird flu. Rich in China and Vietnam, it is the fruit of a small oriental tree species of the Magnoliaceae. It has a spicy taste and resembles licorice. It is a traditional condiment in Eastern cuisine and is also the main spice for French green ouzo and ouzo liqueurs. It can also be used to increase the aroma of candy, ouzo and tobacco. The medicinal value of star anise has received attention before the arrival of bird flu, including its possible anti-cancer effects. As the main source of shikimic acid, star anise has once again attracted attention because shikimic acid is an important component of the drug "Tamiflu", which can effectively deal with the deadly H5N1 avian influenza virus. |
