| Common Name | Xanthorrhizol |
|---|
| Description | Xanthorrhizol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. These are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Xanthorrhizol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, Xanthorrhizol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within gingers. Xanthorrhizol has also been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as beverages, herbs and spices, and root vegetables. Xanthorrhizol is found in Cinnamomum iners, Commiphora kua, Curcuma aromatica , Curcuma longa , Curcuma xanthorrhiza and Iostephane heterophylla. Xanthorrhizol was first documented in 2007 (PMID: 17465228). This could make xanthorrhizol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (PMID: 21478819) (PMID: 18810881). |
