Pandanus tectorius
The roots of the coastal pandanus tree used across the Pacific for urinary conditions and inflammation.
Pandanus root (Pandanus tectorius) is a traditional Pacific remedy used primarily for urinary conditions, edema, fever, and rheumatism. Its active compounds include beta-sitosterol, essential oils, tannins, and flavonoids, which contribute to its diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. Evidence is limited (Level C), with most support derived from traditional use and preliminary pharmacological studies.
The diuretic effect is attributed to flavonoids and essential oils that increase renal blood flow and inhibit sodium reabsorption in the proximal tubule, possibly via modulation of aquaporin channels. Anti-inflammatory activity is mediated by beta-sitosterol and tannins, which inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and reduce prostaglandin synthesis. Antipyretic effects may involve central prostaglandin inhibition and activation of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center through flavonoid-induced vasodilation.
