Abstract

The article presents a study on the effectiveness of the immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of juice from wheat sprouts growing in the extreme climatic conditions of the Far North. Based on clinical and immunological analyses of 27 volunteers from Sakha women aged 40 to 60 years who took whitegrass for 24 days in a volume of 20 ml, positive changes were obtained: there is a significant increase in lymphocytes and monocytes, which indicates the activation of immune mechanisms while maintaining homeostasis. In 29,6% of the participants, elevated ESR levels returned to normal after taking the juice, which shows the anti-inflammatory effect of witgrass. Restoration of leukocyte and granulocyte levels in 14.8% of participants with reduced levels indicates support for hematopoiesis and immunological balance. A moderate increase in IgA, IgM, and IgG antibodies after juice intake causes a strengthening of humoral immunity and the interaction of various parts of the defense system. The results obtained are consistent with the literature data and open up opportunities for further study of the biological properties of juice from the sprouts of local wheat varieties growing in the extreme climatic conditions of Yakutia, its potential for use in complex therapy of immune disorders and for the development of effective natural remedies for the treatment and prevention of many diseases in the North.
