Euphorbia lancifolia
Mayan medicinal plant used in Guatemala and Mesoamerica as a galactagogue to stimulate breast milk production; also used for digestive complaints.
Ixbut (Euphorbia lancifolia) is a traditional Mayan galactagogue used to stimulate breast milk production, also employed for digestive complaints and wound healing. Its primary active constituents include diterpenoids, flavonoids, and tannins, which contribute to its lactogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Evidence is limited to traditional use and preliminary studies, placing it at evidence level C.
The galactagogue effect is thought to involve diterpenoid compounds that may stimulate prolactin secretion via dopamine D2 receptor antagonism in the anterior pituitary, similar to other Euphorbiaceae species. Flavonoids and phenolic acids contribute anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes, while tannins and sterols promote wound healing through astringent and tissue-repair mechanisms. The digestive benefits are likely due to mild choleretic and spasmolytic actions of the plant's constituents.
