    Are there any health benefits to leeches?

    1. Anti-inflammatory or anti-swelling. Extracts can be used to make ointments for treating joint pain and arthritis.
    2. Leech extracts prevent blood from clotting by secreting antithrombin, such as hirudin and protease. This ability is of great value in the medical field. Hirudin is one of the strongest thrombin-specific inhibitors in nature.
    3. Cosmetics and skin care products (experimental). It may improve skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles by improving microcirculation.
