Synopsis

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

Sensitive Plant (Mimosa pudica) has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in Ayurveda and folk medicine in tropical regions. While it is primarily known for its applications in wound healing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diarrheal remedies, there are some traditional claims of its use for gastrointestinal discomfort, including nausea and vomiting. However, these uses are not as prominent or well-documented as its other traditional applications. There is a marked lack of high-quality scientific research or clinical trials directly investigating Mimosa pudica for nausea or vomiting. Most available literature focuses on its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antidiarrheal properties. The evidence, therefore, is based mainly on anecdotal reports and traditional usage, without substantial pharmacological validation for these specific symptoms. Thus, while it may be used for nausea and vomiting in some traditional contexts, scientific support is limited to non-existent.
