The active alkaloids of Sceletium tortuosum are: mesembrine, mesembrenone, mesembrenol and tortuosamine. Mesembrine is a major alkaloid present in Sceletium tortuosum, and has been demonstrated in unpublished laboratory studies to be a serotonin re-uptake inhibitor.
Mesembrine has a receptor-specific activity with the main focus on receptors relating to the receptor activities linked to nicotinic, dopamine, and non-adrenaline. The activity in these sites backs the traditional mood-elevating uses and suggests additional therapeutic and wellness potential.
Sceletium has been reported to be used as a natural supplement in:
Low mood, including grey weather syndrome
Monitoring anxiety, stress, and tension
Drug rehabilitation
Libido, when lack of libido is from anxiety or low mood
Post-traumatic stress disorder, as part of a support program
May uplift the mood
Research directions for the future include evaluation of potential in cognitive enhancement and the management of Parkinson’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease.
