Citrus hystrix
Citron du Sud‑est asiatique à feuilles doubles ; les feuilles et la pelure sont essentielles en cuisine et médecine traditionnelle thaïlandaise et indonésienne.
Citrus hystrix (kaffir lime) is a Southeast Asian herb whose leaves and peel are rich in volatile oils (limonene, beta-pinene, citronellal) and flavonoids. Traditionally used for oral hygiene, digestive stimulation, and hair conditioning, modern research suggests antimicrobial and aromatic stimulant properties. Evidence level C indicates limited clinical data supporting these uses.
The essential oil components, particularly citronellal and limonene, exhibit antimicrobial activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and inhibiting quorum sensing. Flavonoids provide antioxidant effects via free radical scavenging. Limonene may stimulate digestive secretions through activation of TRP channels in the gastrointestinal tract. The aromatic compounds act on olfactory receptors to produce stimulant effects.
