Prunus armeniaca dulce
Variété d'amande d'abricot douce contenant moins d'amygdaline ; herbe TCM pour la toux, la constipation et la nutrition de la peau.
Sweet apricot kernel (Prunus armeniaca dulce) is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb with low amygdalin content, used primarily as a demulcent antitussive and mild laxative. Its high content of fatty acids, particularly oleic acid, and vitamin E contribute to its skin-nourishing and nutritive properties. Modern evidence supports its use in skincare and as a gentle laxative, though clinical data remain limited.
The antitussive effect is attributed to the demulcent action of the kernel's oil, which coats the pharyngeal mucosa and reduces cough reflex sensitivity. The laxative effect results from the high fatty acid content, which stimulates peristalsis via prostaglandin E2 release and softens stool. Topically, vitamin E and oleic acid provide antioxidant and emollient effects, improving skin barrier function. The low amygdalin content minimizes cyanide toxicity risk, distinguishing it from the bitter variety.
