Potentilla anserina
Creeping perennial of damp ground worldwide; leaves used in European and Native American folk medicine for menstrual cramps and diarrhea.
Silverweed (Potentilla anserina) is a creeping perennial herb used traditionally in European and Native American medicine for menstrual cramps and diarrhea. Its primary active compounds include tannins, flavonoids, ellagic acid, and zinc, which contribute to its antispasmodic, astringent, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties. Evidence level C supports its modern use for these indications.
The antispasmodic effect is attributed to flavonoids and phenolic acids that modulate calcium channels and reduce smooth muscle contraction, particularly in the uterus and gastrointestinal tract. Tannins and ellagic acid provide astringent activity by precipitating proteins in mucosal membranes, reducing diarrhea and promoting wound healing. Zinc contributes to anti-inflammatory and tissue repair processes by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis and supporting collagen formation.
