Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Curcuma amada (commonly known as mango ginger) has a history of use in traditional Ayurvedic and Unani medicine systems for a variety of ailments, including symptoms associated with chills and fevers. In these traditional contexts, it is often used in formulations intended to reduce fever, alleviate body aches, and improve general health. The rationale stems from its classification as a warming herb, believed to balance bodily humors and counteract the sensations of coldness or chills, which are often viewed as imbalances in traditional frameworks. However, despite its historical and ethnobotanical use, there is a lack of modern scientific studies directly validating the efficacy of Curcuma amada for treating chills specifically. Most of the available research pertains to its general anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. No clinical trials or pharmacological investigations have focused on its effects on chills or related symptoms. Therefore, while its application for chills is justified by traditional use, there is minimal scientific evidence supporting this specific indication.
