Coix is a traditional plant used in various Asian cultures, particularly in China. Traditionally, it has been utilized for its potential health benefits but specific uses vary widely and are not consistently documented across different traditions. Scientific evidence suggests that Coix may have some potential in cancer treatment; a study found that combining Kanglaite injection with toripalimab and chemotherapy showed manageable safety and preliminary antitumor activity in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients, though further validation is needed. In rheumatoid arthritis research, CSO from coix seeds modulated synovial tissue and serum biomarkers, indicating possible anti-inflammatory effects. Additionally, fermentation of Coix seeds has been shown to influence microbial composition and enhance flavor profiles, potentially improving its nutritional profile by reducing starch and fat content while increasing protein and phenolic compounds. No major safety concerns or known drug interactions have been recorded for coix, but further research is warranted to fully understand its potential applications and effects.
