Smyrnium olusatrum
Herbe bisannuelle autrefois cultivée comme légume planté et plante médicinale, remplacée par la céleri ; utilisée en médecine européenne médiévale.
Alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum) is a biennial herb historically used as a vegetable and in medieval European medicine. It contains bioactive compounds such as isofuranodiene, smyrnioside, flavonoids, and phthalides, which contribute to its antioxidant and digestive properties. Modern evidence is limited but supports traditional uses for gastrointestinal health and as a source of vitamin C.
The volatile oils and phthalides in Alexanders may stimulate digestive enzyme secretion and enhance gastrointestinal motility via interaction with serotonin receptors and smooth muscle relaxation. Isofuranodiene exhibits antioxidant activity through scavenging free radicals and upregulating the Nrf2 pathway. Flavonoids contribute to anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting COX-2 and NF-κB signaling. The diuretic action is likely due to increased renal blood flow and inhibition of sodium reabsorption.
