Synopsis

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

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is widely used in traditional medicine systems, including Ayurveda, Unani, and traditional Persian medicine, for the management of digestive complaints such as nausea and vomiting. Its use in these contexts is often in the form of seeds, extracts, or teas. Traditional texts and ethnobotanical surveys document coriander as a carminative, stomachic, and antiemetic agent. The purported effects are generally attributed to its essential oils, particularly linalool, which is believed to have calming effects on the gastrointestinal tract and to reduce spasms that can contribute to nausea.

While there is some preclinical evidence that coriander extracts may have gastrointestinal protective effects and may reduce spasms or motility in animal models, robust clinical data in humans are lacking. A few small studies and case reports suggest a potential benefit, but these are insufficient to draw firm conclusions. No large-scale, well-controlled clinical trials have specifically investigated the efficacy of coriander for nausea or vomiting in humans. Therefore, its use for these symptoms is primarily justified by longstanding traditional use rather than strong scientific validation.

In summary, coriander has a history of traditional use for nausea and vomiting, with some supporting preclinical evidence, but lacks strong scientific validation from high-quality clinical trials. Its evidence rating for this indication is therefore low to moderate.
