Abstract

Recently, the seriousness of global warming has become increasingly prominent worldwide. In this study, Hsian-tsao, a safe, heat-resistant ingredient that can be eaten and applied, and its extract products were examined for their potential applicability as a countermeasure for problems that may arise in the skin due to global warming. This includes being flexible and responsive to changes in consumer demand due to global warming. Furthermore, regarding global warming, the scientific community is considering ways to mitigate heat stress in humans and animals, and we hope to provide key data for future exploration. Although this review is a narrative review, we conducted a systematic review and searched sources such as PubMed, Medline, Scopus, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar according to PRISMA flow chart guidelines and using a chain of search words such as “global warming”, “green industry”, “Hsian-tsao”, “heat resistance”, “skin health”, “cosmetics”, and “consumer”. Accordingly, we searched a total of 1231 studies and selected 107 studies in the final stage. Considering the sustainability and safeness of Hsian-tsao, further studies to help mitigate human heat stress caused by global warming and evaluate its impact on beauty and health should analyze its utilization and reflect consumer needs that can contribute to the green industry. Therefore, in a situation where the growth of the green industry is urgently needed due to the acceleration of global warming, additional research is necessary on inner-beauty materials and heat-resistant plants that lower the temperature in line with future preparations for continuous global warming. Accordingly, the science community and nutrition, inner beauty, and cosmetics industries seem likely to bring more interest to the green industry, and this trend will continue in the future. We hope that Hsian-tsao will be used in a variety of skin health strategies and nutritional approaches to global warming and heat resistance.
