Aspidistra elatior

Aspidistra elatior，又称铁兰或带状植物，是一种传统的室内观赏植物，原产于东亚。它未被传统上用于医疗目的，并且没有记录过任何特定的民间用途。科学上，来自 Aspidistra elatior 的 AEL 蛋白质在体外显示出一些抗病毒和抗癌活性，但这些发现是有限的，并且在不同的病毒和细胞系之间有所不同。此外，研究表明对土壤施加脉冲电场刺激可以增加各种植物物种（包括 Aspidistra elatior）产生负离子的数量，尽管不同植物的效果存在差异。这种植物的安全性似乎很小；没有记录到任何主要问题。此外，也没有已知的与 Aspidistra elatior 相关的药物相互作用。
