Synopsis

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

Albizia species, particularly Albizia lebbeck, have a history of use in traditional medicine systems such as Ayurveda and Unani for various liver disorders, including jaundice. Traditional healers have used different parts of the plant (primarily bark and leaves) as part of remedies intended to "cleanse" the liver and support its function. However, the scientific evidence to substantiate these claims is minimal. Some in vitro and animal studies on Albizia extracts have demonstrated antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects, but these studies are not directly linked to human jaundice or its management. There are no well-controlled clinical trials or robust pharmacological studies in humans that validate the efficacy or safety of Albizia for treating jaundice in adults. Most references to its use for jaundice are found in ethnobotanical surveys or compilations of traditional medicinal practices rather than in peer-reviewed biomedical research. Therefore, while its use is rooted in tradition, the evidence supporting its effectiveness is weak and incomplete. Individuals should consult qualified healthcare providers before using Albizia for jaundice or any liver condition.
