What is Plantago (plantain) Powder Extracts?
Plantago is a genus of about 200 species of small, inconspicuous plants commonly called plantains. They share this name with the very dissimilar plantain, a kind of banana. Most are herbaceous plants, though a few are subshrubs growing to 60 cm (23.5 in) tall. The leaves are sessile, but have a narrow part near the stem which is a pseudo-petiole. They have three or five parallel veins that diverge in the wider part of the leaf. Leaves are broad or narrow, depending on the species. The inflorescences are borne on stalks typically 5-40 cm tall, and can be a short cone or a long spike, with numerous tiny wind-pollinated flowers.Plantains are used as food plants by the larvae of some species of Lepidoptera - see list of Lepidoptera that feed on plantains. They are found all over the world, including America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Africa and Europe. Many species in the genus are cosmopolitan weeds. They are found in many different habitats, most commonly in wet areas like seepages or bogs. They can also be found in alpine and semi-alpine or coastal areas. The cosmopolitan weeds can be frequently seen at the side of roads.
What are Health Benefits?
Plantain has been effectively used as an astringent, demulcent, diuretic, expectorant, and hemostatic. Common plantain can be used the same way as lance-leaf plantain. In addition, the juice or infusion can be taken for bladder problems and for gastrointestinal ulcers. A decoction can also be used externally for various skin problems, including ringworm, and also as a douche for leucorrhea. Chewing on the rootstock will give temporary relief from toothache. Finally, common plantain is sometimes recommended to increase virility (this use was probably suggested by the suggestive flower spike).
