Invasive Weed Unlocks Anti-Aging Potential
Cocklebur extracts, derived from the fruit of a plant often considered a noxious weed, have shown potential in protecting skin, accelerating wound healing, and combating wrinkles due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The findings suggest that cocklebur could be a valuable ingredient in cosmetic products, especially when combined with other effective compounds like hyaluronic acid or retinoic acid to fight aging. However, high doses of cocklebur fruit extract can be harmful, and further research is needed to determine how to use it safely in cosmetic or pharmaceutical applications.
