Synopsis

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

White Dead Nettle Flower (Lamium album) has a history of traditional use in European herbal medicine, particularly for its purported anti-inflammatory, astringent, and wound-healing properties. Historical sources, including European folk medicine records and texts such as those by Nicholas Culpeper, describe its application in poultices or infusions to help stem bleeding, soothe wounds, and support tissue repair. The aerial parts of the plant, including the flowers, contain flavonoids, tannins, and iridoid glycosides, which are believed to contribute to these effects by reducing inflammation and promoting tissue contraction.

However, scientific validation for these uses is limited. While in vitro studies have demonstrated some anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities in extracts of Lamium album, there are very few high-quality clinical trials or animal studies specifically examining its efficacy in treating injuries or wounds. The available scientific literature primarily supports the presence of bioactive compounds rather than clinical effectiveness. Therefore, its use for injuries is primarily justified by tradition, with only modest evidence from laboratory studies but little direct clinical support.

In summary, White Dead Nettle Flower is used to support injury recovery mainly due to traditional herbal practices, with a limited foundation in modern scientific research.
