Synopsis

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

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) has been traditionally used in various systems of medicine, including Ayurveda and traditional Persian medicine, to help reduce fever. The seeds and leaves are believed to have cooling properties and are often included in herbal decoctions and infusions intended to lower body temperature during febrile illnesses. In these traditions, coriander is sometimes used in combination with other herbs and is thought to support overall health, digestion, and detoxification, which are indirectly linked to fever reduction.

From a scientific perspective, there is limited evidence to directly support coriander’s use as an antipyretic (fever-reducing) agent. Some laboratory studies have demonstrated that coriander seeds possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which may, in theory, contribute to fever management, as inflammation is a key driver of fever. However, there are very few clinical trials or robust animal studies specifically evaluating coriander’s effect on fever. The evidence thus remains primarily anecdotal and rooted in tradition, rather than being supported by well-designed scientific research.

In summary, while coriander is commonly used in traditional medicine systems to help with fever, there is a lack of strong scientific validation for this practice. Its traditional use may be attributed to its general health benefits and indirect effects rather than a direct antipyretic action.
