Labisia pumila
Labisia pumila
Labisia pumila, a plant traditionally used primarily in Malaysian folk medicine, has shown promise across various scientific studies. It is traditionally employed for respiratory and gastrointestinal conditions but lacks specific documented uses in traditional practices. Scientific evidence suggests that Labisia pumila standardized extract (SKF7®) may aid in weight management by reducing body weight, BMI, waist circumference, and waist-to-height ratio in individuals with obesity. Additionally, the polysaccharides from this plant have been shown to increase lifespan and improve stress tolerance in nematodes and fruit flies, indicating potential anti-aging benefits. Labisia pumila var. alata extract has demonstrated apoptosis induction in MCF-7 breast cancer cells by inhibiting oestrogen receptor activity, suggesting possible applications in oncology research. The extract also showed potential anti-SARS-CoV-2 and anti-inflammatory activities in vitro, indicating broad biological effects. No major safety concerns or drug interactions have been recorded to date, but further research is needed to fully understand its efficacy and safety profile.
