Used in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, particularly as part of the flavonoid group. Shows potential in treating skin infections, reducing swelling in joint-related conditions, and preliminary studies suggest inhibition of cancer cell growth in vitro. Also studied for antioxidant activity, supporting its role in protecting cells from oxidative damage and preventing stress-induced harm. Research explores its use in natural health products, dermatological formulations, and developing plant-based extracts for health and cosmetics, though further studies are needed to confirm efficacy and safety.
