Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Allium tuberosum Rottl., commonly known as Chinese chive or garlic chive, has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in China and other parts of Asia. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the seeds and aerial parts of Allium tuberosum are used to treat a variety of ailments, including abdominal pain, indigestion, and diarrhea. The herb is described as warming and is believed to strengthen the stomach, promote digestion, and relieve pain. Traditional texts such as the "Compendium of Materia Medica" (Bencao Gangmu) mention the use of this plant for abdominal discomfort and related gastrointestinal symptoms.

Scientific evidence supporting the use of Allium tuberosum specifically for abdominal pain is limited. While the plant contains bioactive compounds such as sulfur-containing glycosides, flavonoids, and saponins, which have general antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects, direct clinical studies on its efficacy for abdominal pain are lacking. Most available evidence rests on traditional usage and anecdotal reports rather than rigorous clinical trials. Some in vitro and animal studies suggest potential gastrointestinal benefits, but these are not sufficient to establish clinical efficacy.

In summary, the use of Allium tuberosum Rottl. for abdominal pain is primarily supported by traditional medicine practices with a moderate amount of historical documentation, but scientific validation remains weak.
