Adiantum capillus-veneris
A delicate fern used in Greek, Ayurvedic, and Unani medicine for respiratory conditions; triterpenoids and flavonoids reduce cough and congestion.
Maidenhair Herb (Adiantum capillus-veneris) is a delicate fern used in Greek, Ayurvedic, and Unani medicine primarily for respiratory conditions such as cough and catarrh. Its key active compounds include flavonoids, triterpenoids, and phenolic acids, which contribute to its expectorant and anti-inflammatory properties. Evidence is limited (Level C), with traditional use also supporting hair growth and liver/spleen health.
Flavonoids and triterpenoids in Maidenhair Herb exhibit expectorant activity by stimulating bronchial secretion and reducing mucus viscosity, likely through modulation of airway epithelial ion channels and inhibition of inflammatory cytokines. Phenolic acids and tannins provide anti-inflammatory effects via COX-2 and NF-κB pathway inhibition. The herb's traditional use for hair growth may involve improved scalp circulation and antioxidant protection of hair follicles, though mechanisms are not well-characterized.
