Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1
Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) has been traditionally used in various systems of medicine, including Ayurveda and Unani, for its purported benefits in liver disorders, including jaundice. The seeds and leaves have been included in decoctions and formulations aimed at supporting liver function and alleviating symptoms associated with jaundice such as loss of appetite and digestive disturbances. The rationale for its traditional use centers on coriander’s reputed digestive, diuretic, and anti-inflammatory properties, which were believed to help the liver process toxins and reduce bilirubin levels. However, the scientific evidence to support coriander’s efficacy for treating jaundice in adults is extremely limited. A few animal studies have explored coriander’s hepatoprotective effects, suggesting potential antioxidant or liver-protecting properties, but these have not been robustly demonstrated in human clinical trials specifically for jaundice. No high-quality, peer-reviewed studies provide direct evidence for coriander’s effectiveness in managing or treating jaundice in adults. Thus, while coriander is included in traditional remedies, its use for this purpose remains largely unsupported by modern scientific validation. The evidence rating is low due to the absence of rigorous clinical data.
