  1. A satellite group was given the B. monnieri extract at 1,500 mg/kg daily over 270 days followed by no treatment for 28 days
  2. RBC red blood cell count, HB hemoglobin, HCT hematocrit, MCV mean corpuscular volume, MCH mean corpuscular hemoglobin, MCHC mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, PLT platelet count, WBC white blood cell count, NEU neutrophil, LYMP lymphocyte, MONO monocyte, EOS eosinophil, BASO basophil
  3. Values are expressed as mean ± S.E.M., n = 10. *Significantly different from control, p < 0.05
