Pueraria montana
Major TCM herb that releases the muscle layer, raises yang and body fluids, treats fever and stiff neck, and reduces alcohol cravings. Now studied extensively for alcohol use disorder.
Pueraria root (Pueraria montana), a foundational herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is used to release the muscle layer, raise yang, and reduce alcohol cravings. Modern research focuses on its isoflavones puerarin, daidzin, and daidzein, which exhibit cardioprotective, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Clinical evidence supports its role in alcohol use disorder, though overall evidence is limited (Grade C).
Puerarin and daidzin modulate alcohol metabolism by inhibiting aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2), reducing acetaldehyde accumulation and alcohol-seeking behavior. Daidzein and puerarin also act as phytoestrogens, binding to estrogen receptors and influencing hormonal pathways. Additionally, puerarin exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects via NF-κB inhibition and upregulation of Nrf2, contributing to cardioprotection and glucose regulation.
