Lippia alba
Espèce aromatique de Lippia des tropicales d'Amérique, utilisée du Mexique à l'Argentine pour l'anxiété, l'insomnie, les affections digestives, et comme infusion à parfum citronné.
Erva Cidreira (Lippia alba) is a lemon-scented aromatic herb from tropical America, traditionally used in Brazilian and Mexican folk medicine for anxiety, insomnia, and digestive spasms. Modern research (evidence level C) supports its anxiolytic, antispasmodic, and antimicrobial properties, attributed to active compounds such as citral, carvone, linalool, and flavonoids. It is commonly consumed as a tea or tincture for nervous system and gastrointestinal support.
The anxiolytic and sedative effects of Lippia alba are primarily mediated by linalool and citral, which modulate GABA-A receptors, enhancing chloride ion conductance and producing a calming effect. Carvone and flavonoids contribute to antispasmodic activity by relaxing smooth muscle via calcium channel blockade and nitric oxide pathways. Antimicrobial actions involve disruption of microbial cell membranes by terpenoids, while carminative effects are linked to reduced intestinal gas formation and improved motility through cholinergic and serotonergic receptor interactions.
