Nelumbo nucifera (seed)
TCM herb from sacred lotus seeds; used to tonify the Spleen, calm the Heart, and astringe Kidney essence; treats insomnia, palpitations, and diarrhea.
Lian Zi, the seed of Nelumbo nucifera, is a traditional Chinese herb used to tonify the Spleen, calm the Spirit, and astringe Kidney essence. It is clinically applied for insomnia, palpitations, and chronic diarrhea, with key active compounds including neferine, nuciferine, isoliensinine, and various alkaloids and polysaccharides. Evidence level C indicates limited clinical data, primarily from traditional use and preliminary studies.
Neferine and isoliensinine exhibit sedative effects by potentiating GABA-A receptor activity and modulating serotonergic pathways, thereby reducing anxiety and promoting sleep. Nuciferine demonstrates anti-inflammatory action through inhibition of COX-2 and LOX enzymes, while polysaccharides contribute antioxidant effects via free radical scavenging. Additionally, alkaloids in Lian Zi show cardiovascular support by blocking L-type calcium channels, leading to mild vasodilation and heart rate stabilization.
