What Is Coriandrum Sativum Mother Tincture?

Health Benefits and Uses
Moreover, Coriandrum Sativum acts directly on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract. This action relieves spasms, reduces gas accumulation, and restores normal peristaltic movement. Consequently, it helps patients with chronic flatulence, colic, and indigestion effectively. Also, its action on the kidneys and bladder helps reduce burning and frequency of urination.
The remedy also supports nervous system function and reduces emotional irritability. Additionally, researchers have identified its volatile oil content — particularly linalool — as responsible for its carminative effects. Therefore, the mother tincture form preserves these active compounds most effectively.
