Pimenta dioica
Baie d'arbre des Caraïbes combinant les saveurs du clou de girofle, du citronnelle et de la cannelle, utilisée à des fins médicinales à Jamaïque.
Allspice (Pimenta dioica) is a Caribbean tree berry with a flavor reminiscent of clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon, traditionally used in Jamaican and Central American folk medicine as a digestive stimulant and antiflatulent. Modern research supports its analgesic and antimicrobial properties, attributed primarily to its high eugenol content along with caryophyllene, methyleugenol, and tannins. Evidence remains limited (Grade C) for most clinical applications, though its traditional use is well-documented.
Eugenol, the primary active compound, exerts analgesic effects through TRPV1 receptor desensitization and inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis. Caryophyllene acts as a selective CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist, contributing to anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions. The carminative and digestive stimulant effects are mediated by smooth muscle relaxation in the gastrointestinal tract via calcium channel modulation and direct spasmolytic activity. Antimicrobial activity involves disruption of bacterial cell membranes and inhibition of biofilm formation, particularly against oral pathogens.
