Scientific Summary

Litsea cubeba is a herbaceous shrub whose aromatic fruits contain a high‑content essential oil. Its oil is used mainly as an antimicrobial, digestive tonic and respiratory aid, and it has been traditionally applied to support cardiovascular wellbeing. Use of the oil should be limited, as it can irritate skin and mucous membranes; pregnant, breastfeeding, or people taking antihypertensive or anticoagulant drugs should be cautious.
