Scientific Summary

Golpar, known botanically as *Heracleum persicum*, is a perennial herb whose dried root is ground into a powder for traditional use. It is employed as an aphrodisiac and general vigor tonic, and is also used to help manage diabetes, arthritis, urinary infections, and to support lactation in nursing mothers. Because it can cause stomach upset or allergic reactions, it should be taken in moderation and avoided by people with sensitive digestive systems, pregnant women, or those on anticoagulant medication.
