Temperature extremes (moving from cold air into heated buildings) Hot beverages, spicy foods, and alcohol Stress and intense emotions Exercise and physical exertion These triggers cause temporary redness that typically resolves within 30 minutes to an hour once the stimulus stops
Similar reductions in IL-1 and TNF- were also observed after administering other polyphenols, including gallic acid (GA) at 100 mg/kg, for 112 days [20], chlorogenic acid (CGA) (80 mg/kg, p.o., for 16 weeks) [23], sesamol (100 mg/kg, p.o., for 8 weeks and 0.05% w/v, in drinking water, for 10 weeks) [24, 36], Nano-Honokiol (20 mg/kg, p.o., for 17 weeks) [27], quercetin-3-O-glucuronide (Q3G) (50 mg/kg, p.o., for 4 weeks) [33], and blueberrymulberry extract (BME) (300 mg/kg, p.o., for 6 weeks) [40]
