Synopsis

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

Indian Kinotree (Pterocarpus marsupium) has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for a variety of ailments, including digestive issues. There are references in classical Ayurvedic texts to its use for improving digestion and stimulating appetite, often as part of polyherbal formulations. The astringent properties of kino (the gum-resin from the tree) are believed to help in correcting digestive weaknesses and loss of appetite, though it is more commonly noted for its antidiabetic and anti-diarrheal effects. However, there is a lack of robust scientific studies or clinical trials directly assessing its efficacy in treating appetite deficiency. Most of the available evidence is based on traditional practices, anecdotal use, and inclusion in compound Ayurvedic preparations aimed at digestive health. Therefore, while its use for appetite stimulation is rooted in tradition, it is not strongly supported by modern scientific research. The evidence rating reflects the reliance on historical rather than empirical data for this indication.
