Hymenaea courbaril
Amazonian and Caribbean tree; bark and resin used in Brazilian folk medicine for respiratory and digestive conditions.
Hymenaea courbaril (jatobá) is a tropical tree whose bark and resin are traditionally used in Amazonian and Caribbean folk medicine for respiratory and digestive conditions. Its active compounds include terpenes, diterpenic acids, flavonoids, and tannins, which contribute to expectorant, antifungal, digestive tonic, and energy-supporting properties. Evidence is limited to preliminary studies and traditional use.
The expectorant effect is attributed to terpenes and diterpenic acids that stimulate bronchial secretion and mucociliary clearance. Flavonoids and tannins provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions by inhibiting COX-2 and NF-κB pathways. The resin contains copalic acid and other labdane-type diterpenes with demonstrated antifungal activity against Candida species. Additionally, adaptogenic effects on the HPA axis may support energy metabolism, though data are preliminary.
